As a result of the civil war in 1997 and the ongoing bloody conflicts, most Europeans (especially Belgians) left the country. In addition to the more than 500,000 refugees from neighboring countries (mainly from Angola, Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda, South Sudan), there are around 3.7 million internally displaced persons according to the UN Refugee Agency. Around 1.4 million (2015) Congolese live as refugees or migrants abroad. With 36 residents / km 2 (2017), the Democratic Republic of the Congo is quite sparsely populated. 45% (2018) of the population live in cities (especially in Kinshasa and Lubumbashi ). Large stretches of land in the interior are almost uninhabited.
Social: Around three quarters of the population live in extreme poverty. The country depends on food aid to ensure that the people are fed. Around half of toddlers show stunted growth due to inadequate nutrition. The leasing of agricultural land to foreign investors is also seen as a threat to the supply situation.
Religion
State and religion were legally separate in the former Republic of Zaire (until 1997). Freedom of religion was guaranteed as a right of recognized religious bodies in the constitution. The Catholic Church has enjoyed public-law recognition since 1972, the “Église du Christ au Congo” (Evangelical Church of Christ in the Congo) founded in 1970 as a structural union of all Protestant churches and communities, the “Église de Jésus Christ sur la Terre par le Prophète Simon Kimbangu «(Kimbanguist Church, Kimbangu ), the Orthodox Church and the Jewish and Islamic communities. After the fall of Mobutu Sese-Seko and the associated collapse of the state order in the following years only the Christian churches had largely functioning (organizational) structures nationwide.
Over 90% of the population can be attributed to Christianity. The majority of them belong to the Catholic Church, the most influential denominational community in the country. It is divided into the (six archdioceses of Bukavu, Kananga, Kinshasa, Kisangani, Lubumbashi and Mbandaka-Bikoro. The seat of the archbishop is Mbandaka. The (post-) Reformation religious communities include in particular Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, Pentecostals, Disciples of Christ and Mennonites There are also independent churches with partly syncretistic features, such as the Kimbanguist Church. The largest Protestant church in numbers is the Evangelical Church of Christ in the Congo (“Église du Christ au Congo”). There is one especially in the cities growing Muslim community. The Sunni Muslims belong to the Shafiite law school. Islam is to a large extent shaped by the brotherhood of the Qadirija.
The Jewish community, founded in the 1880s, has only a few members today (1960: around 3,000); It is also from here that the spiritual care of Jews living in other Central African countries takes place. Sections of the population are still associated with traditional African religions, although indigenous beliefs (e.g. healing, wedding and burial rites) have been integrated into their own practices of belief and piety, especially by the independent churches.
