Democratic Republic of the Congo–Republic of the Congo relations
Bilateral relations / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Republic of the Congo (Brazzaville) and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Kinshasa) share the basin of the Congo River (after which both nations are named). The two nations' capital cities, Brazzaville and Kinshasa, are the two closest capital cities on Earth after Rome and Vatican City (a micro-city state enclaved within the former), facing each other on both sides of the Congo River. As Francophone nations formerly ruled by France and Belgium, respectively, both Congos are member states of La Francophonie.
