The Democratic Republic of Congo is home to about 250 ethnic groups. Most of the inhabitants are members of the Bantu peoples. The largest nations are Luba (18%), Congo (16%) and Mongo (13%). Most of the languages used in DRC belong to the Niger-Congo language family, mainly Benue-Congo branch, but the official language is French. Furthermore significantly present languages are Swahili, Tshiluba, Kituba and Lingala. The most widespread religion is Christianity.

Illiterate population is around 42%, secondary education has 15% and only 1% has a higher education. Life expectancy ranges from 43 to 49 years. Over 40% of the population suffer from long- term malnutrition, even though though the DRC has the potential to feed a third of the population of the entire planet.

The economic potential of the DRC 1.The main raw material resources: diamonds, gold, copper, tin, cobalt, manganese, colombo- tantalit (coltan), bauxite, iron, coal, oil and oil shale, methane, zinc, nickel, uranium, lead, cadmium... 2.Electric Power - almost 100% of its electricity is from hydro, only 4% from other sources. Potential of other sources is almost unused, including renewable energy (solar radiation, wind currents, sea surf...)

3. exports of raw materials and energy accounts for 95% of GDP, while the remaining 5% of GDP comes from other industries 4. Crop production - employs roughly 2/3 of the population of working age. Main products: coffee, rubber, tea, cocoa beans, cassava (sweet potatoes), corn, peanuts, cotton, sugarcane, rice, bananas and oil palm

5. Forestry - DRC is the second most populous country in Africa. Benefiting mainly - ebony, African teak (Afromosia), rosewood, mahogany... African Walnut (ovankgkol) 6. livestock - chickens, pigs. Cattle and goats only the territory with high-quality health care (presence of tsetse flies) 7. Tourism – tourism and sightseeing (natural reserves, parks, national parks, five of which are registered in the UNESCO including Virunga park - mountain gorillas)

Due to the stable political and security situation in the country it becomes opened to foreign investment. Major partners are - Belgium, France, Finland, Germany, South Africa, USA, Japan and China. The EU provides DRC beneficial clauses and tariffs. Furthermore, IMF and World Bank reopened development assistance. It is a very opportune time to enter the game.
