OverviewArm conflict in Congo. With the withdrawal of all or most of the Rwandan and Ugandan soldiers from eastern Congo in 2002 and 2003, local armed groups became the main direct contenders for control of areas rich in gold. In Ituri District the most important of these groups were affiliated with either the Hema or the Lendu, ethnic groups that had been battling over land and fishing rights since 1999. Because the ethnic conflict became intertwined with the struggle over gold, the fighting in Ituri District drew in far larger numbers of civilians than was the case around Durba, in Haut Uele District. Both areas had significant gold mines but Durba suffered less historical ethnic tensions between the Hema and Lendu Full Product DetailsAuthor: Dendi KerekouPublisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform Imprint: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform Dimensions: Width: 15.20cm , Height: 0.80cm , Length: 22.90cm Weight: 0.200kg ISBN: 9781535433907ISBN 10: 1535433906 Pages: 142 Publication Date: 22 July 2016 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In stock  We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
