Before we get into what happened to Lignes Aériennes Congolese (LAC), it is best to differentiate between the former Belgian colony of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the Republic of Congo, a former French colony. You may be more familiar with the name Zaire which the DRC was called from 1971 until 1997. General Mobutu Sese Seko, the country's ruler then, thought that the name Zaire sounded more African than the name the Belgians had given it.
