ABSTRACT

Here is a pop quiz. What country has experienced the highest levels of political violence? Is it the Sudan? Afghanistan? Iran? Columbia? Iraq? The correct answer is the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where in the past decade and a half between 4 and 5 million people have been killed in a civil war that now also involves several neighboring states.
