It formed part of the turbulent history of the country in the first half of the 1960s and was contemporary with another uprising, the Kwilu Rebellion led by Pierre Mulele, in the central Congo. ==Simbas== The rebels were led by Gaston Soumialot and Christophe Gbenye who, along with Pierre Mulele, had been members of the radical Parti Solidaire Africain (PSA) of Antoine Gizenga before independence. The leaders of the rebels were politically leftists. Most of their fighters were men from the provinces of Kivu and Orientale. Most of the active revolutionaries were young men who hoped that the rebellion would provide them with opportunities which the government had not. The Simbas used magic to initiate members and believed that, by following a moral code, they could become invulnerable to bullets. The Maoist-inspired militants called themselves "Simbas," from the Kiswahili for "lion". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Simba Rebellion」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
