The culture of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is extremely varied, reflecting the great diversity and different customs which exist in the country. Congolese culture combines the influence of tradition to the region, but also combines influences from abroad which arrived during the era of colonization and continue to have a strong influence, without destroying the individuality of many tribal customs.

  • La culture de la République démocratique du Congo (environ 105 000 000 habitants) reflète la diversité des centaines de groupes ethniques habitant le pays et leurs coutumes. Aux bouches du fleuve (Kongo-Central) succèdent une dense forêt dans le bassin du fleuve Congo (ex-provinces Orientale et Équateur), et une savane sur les plateaux du centre (Kasaï), la région la plus densément peuplée du pays en dehors de l'agglomération de Kinshasa. Depuis la fin du XIXe siècle, les modes de vie traditionnels ont été modifiés à la suite de la colonisation, les luttes pour l'indépendance et plus récemment les Première et Deuxième Guerre du Congo. Malgré ces influences, les coutumes et les cultures traditionnelles du Congo restent en grande partie préservées. (fr)
  • La cultura della Repubblica Democratica del Congo è il prodotto della varietà di stili di vita e tradizioni delle centinaia di singole etnie del paese e delle loro modificazioni in seguito al rapporto con l'Europa e l'Occidente in epoca coloniale e post-coloniale. Anche le vicissitudini politiche del paese (in particolare la lotta per l'indipendenza, il regime di Mobutu Sese Seko, e la Prima e la Seconda Guerra del Congo) hanno avuto un impatto importante sulla cultura del paese. Come in molti paesi africani, le zone rurali conservano in misura maggiore le tradizioni dell'epoca precoloniale, mentre la cultura delle grandi città è fortemente influenzata da quella occidentale.

  • La cultura de la República Democrática del Congo refleja gran parte de la diversidad de sus cientos de grupos étnicos y sus diferentes formas de vida a través del país-desde hace poca del río Congo en la costa, río arriba a través de la selva y la sabana en su centro, a las montañas densamente pobladas en el lejano oriente.Desde finales del siglo XIX, maneras tradicionales de vida han experimentado cambios provocados por el colonialismo, la lucha por la independencia, el estancamiento de la época de Mobutu, y más recientemente, la Primera y Segunda Guerra del Congo. A pesar de estas presiones, las costumbres y culturas del Congo han conservado gran parte de su individualidad. Los 8 habitantes del país son principalmente rurales. El 30 por ciento que viven en áreas urbanas han sido comidas (es)
