"King Leopold's Soliloquy" is a satirical work by Mark Twain, published in 1905. It presents a fictional monologue by King Leopold II of Belgium, exposing his exploitation and brutal colonization of the Congo Free State. Through dark humor and irony, Twain critiques Imperialism and highlights the atrocities committed under Leopold's rule, aiming to raise awareness and provoke outrage over colonial abuses. The piece serves as a powerful condemnation of European imperialism and its impact on African peoples.
