The main southern tributary of the Congo River basin is the Kasai River, which originates in the central-oriental part of Angola; this river is the borderline between Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo by approximately 450 kilometers.
The Congo-Zaire River, originated in the northern part of Zambia where it is known as Luapula River, one of the longest of Africa in length – 4,370 kilometers – and in volume – 34,000 cubic meters per second annually.
It is for that reason the strategic advantage of this international river basin acquires special importance to sustain the progress as well as to restore alliances of mutual benefit between the nations that share the resources of the Congo River like its abundant natural wealth – biodiversity, minerals, wood, water, and energy.
