The tale of two countries, Cheating with the Congos

 

  Bonjour 

So tonight I decided to cheat a little, the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Republic of Congo are extremely similar countries, neighbours and with the same national dish. The Congos do have different histories with the Democratic Republic of Congo being a former French colony and the Republic of Congo being a former Belgium colony. It is interesting that two countries that are so close together with similar cultures and often mentioned in the same breath have enough differences to be divided.

Their national dish Chicken Moambe is a combination of chicken served with rice. It contained peanuts (not my favourite) but was quite tasty.



au revoir
