Between the CAR and the DRC, trade brings nations together.

Direction the city of Zongo located in the far north of the DRC, just in front of Bangui the Central African capital.

Two cities linked by history and culture, but also very economically dependent on each other.

Zongo is a six-hour drive from Gemena, the capital of the province of Sud-Ubangi, and therefore lives entirely facing the Central African capital.

Zongo, facing Bangui, is an Africa economy report.
