Isiro
Isiro (pronounced ) is the capital of Haut-Uele District in the northeastern part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It lies between the equatorial forest and the savannah and its main resource is coffee. Isiro's population is estimated at approximately 182,000.〔() 2004 Urban Population map of the Democratic Republic of Congo〕 Most people speak Lingala, but Swahili is not uncommon.
==History==
Isiro was named ''Paulis'' after colonel, later diplomat, Albert Paulis when it was part of the Belgian Congo. The city was developed in 1934 and reached its peak in 1957.〔() Université d'Uélé (in French). Accessed November 4, 2006.〕
In the troubled days of Congo's independence and its aftermath, operation ''Black Dragoon'' brought fighting between Belgian paratroopers and local Simba militias.
In 1998, Isiro became the home of a newly created Dominican-operated university called ''Université d'Uélé''. It is the third city in Orientale province (after Kisangani and Bunia) to welcome a university.
