The Republic of Kisangani was a country in the remains of Zaire. It was founded in December 1984 after the death of Sese Mobutu, then ruler of Zaire. Though originally a dictatorship, in May 1987, after a short rebellion, it became a democracy. The nation lasted until 2007, when it collapsed following a short civil war. An estimated 40% of the population survived, the rest mostly starving following the collapse of organized government.
