The town of Mongbwalu, run by a military commander, where the only real business is gold and the former Kilo Mines lies in ruins.
The eastern Congo has been destabilized by war for the last five years. One reason for the conflict is the struggle to control the region's mineral wealth. The conflict has often taken the form of ethnic strife, but many feel that these tribal struggles are fomented by outsiders that want to keep the mineral wealth moving across the borders. Large international mining companies have pulled out, leaving the work to be done with shovels and buckets by barefoot Congolese, some of them children.
