So originally at the congress of Berlin when the Congo came up in order to prevent wars between European powers there were two choices for the territory
The Congo had been a contention point between the powers and was decided to be given to a power uninterested in Europe and the like like the US
Or a minor country such as Belgium
So if the USA manages to aqquire the Congo(maybe more settlement in Liberia?) How is it going to effect the continent and the like as a whole
Remember this question isn’t about why the USA would aqquire the Congo more about how it’s going to effect Africa if they aqquire it
