This map shows the most popular and used natural resources by Belgium in different areas of

of their colony and used during the second World War.

against german forces. This account was helpful to learn more on how beneficial the Congo was

Chris Truman, the author of this description of Belgian resistances and sabotage strategies
during the Second World War, founded the website History Learning Site UK in 2000 and was a
professor for 35 years before dying of severe brain cancer in 2013. This article and analysis of
Belgian Resistance forces helped me analyze how these Belgium benefitted from these as they
resisted against the occupation and how it helped the country regain its pride and confidence
against these foreign forces.

James G. Whiteley was the Consul General of Belgium as well as the Former Consul General of
the Independent State of the Congo and wrote this very short account on how King Leopold
influenced the Belgian Congo and aided Belgium through the Occupation in WWII. This source
helped me obtain more information on how Belgium benefitted from their neutral leader at the
time and how having a leader like him helped them combat the opposing forces.
