Explanation:

The exploitation of Congo by Belgium is considered one of the most brutal and exploitative colonial regimes in modern history. During this period, Belgium exploited the Native Congolese people forcing them to work as porters, miners, rubber-tappers, woodcutters and railway builders. 

The main product of the exploitation was the harvesting of rubber, that had high demand in Europe. Native Congolese were forced to work and even a colonial army was created, called force publique.
