Best Answer

King Leopold 2 (born Louis Philippe Marie Victor) was a ruler of a colony in Africa, which is now called Zaire.

He used slave labor and torture to extract raw materials (mostly rubber) and build his personal fortune. By 1908 criticism of his rule forced his withdrawal as sovereign and the region was annexed to Belgium.
