In the end,
We will conserve only what we love,
We will love only what we understand,
We will understand only what we are taught.

In the course of history, the region of the Congo Basin was referred to as Congo. Later in the 19th century, with explorations of Savorgnan de Brazza on behalf of Makoko, King of Teke, and H.M.Stanley on behalf of King Leopold II of Belgium, this region was referred as "French Congo" and "Belgian Congo" accordingly.		With a total area of about 1,335,000 square miles, the Congo Basin consists of a vast shallow depression that rises by a series of giant steps to an almost circular rim of highlands through which the Congo (Zaire) river has cut a narrow exit into the Atlantic Ocean. The interior bowl of the Congo River basin dominates most of central Africa.
