Leopold II was King of the Belgians from 1865 to 1909. With the help of an explorer, he claimed the Congo, now the Democratic Republic of the Congo. He was authorized to do so only under the conditions that he improve the lives of natives, but he did the opposite. Instead, he used slave labor to make a personal fortune on rubber and ivory.
