Then the Congo wouldn't have been much of a hellhole than it is right now.
IIRC, yes, up to 1908, although it was clear that the King's rule couldn't continue from 1904 or so.Was Leopold still running the Congo in 1902?
from1885 until 1908
king Leopold II was "chairman" of the Congo Free State
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congo_Free_State
after 1908 it became Belgian Congo
in Belgium are alot of rumor about this assassination attempt:
that the attempt was staged
like Police crackdowns against European anarchists.
or a polical conspiracy to make Belgium a republic
with death of Leopold II
the Belgium the House of Commons start to investigate wat happen there
but it take until 1905 it confirmed report's.
so the Congo Free State had become Belgian Congo not before 1906!
