Congo

• The Congo River in central Africa, or the basin of that river. The Congo and its subsidiaries run through the second largest rain forest area in the world, only the Amazon Rainforest being (much) larger.
• In Vodun, a rather dull and lazy spirit was named Congo.

There are also two countries in Africa both named Congo, after the river:

• Republic of the Congo - Congo/Brazzaville, the smaller one in the west.
• Democratic Republic of the Congo - formerly Zaire - Congo/Kinshasa, the larger one in the east.

This is a disambiguation page; that is, one that just points to other pages that might otherwise have the same name. If you followed a link here, you might want to go back and fix that link to point to the appropriate specific page.
