" "Visit of the incomparable and impressive installations of Union Minière. We go up the hill. The sight is prestigious: the station, one of the most important in Africa, the buildings, the Europeans with the houses surrounded by gardens, the vast chessboard of the native city.

About Albert I of Belgium
King Albert I (April 8, 1875 – February 17, 1934) reigned as King of the Belgians from 1909 to 1934. He ruled during an eventful period in the history of Belgium, which included the period of World War I (1914–1918), when 90 percent of Belgium was overrun, occupied, and ruled by the German Empire. He also acquired the former German colony of Ruanda-Urundi as a Belgian League of Nations mandate during negotiations for the Treaty of Versailles, and led Belgium through the Great Depression.
