The Kongo Kingdom and the Congo River reflect different linguistic origins. The name "Kongo" derives from the Kikongo language spoken by the Bakongo people, while "Congo" is derived from the Latinized form used by European explorers. This distinction highlights the influence of local languages versus colonial interpretations in naming conventions. As a result, the variations in spelling signify cultural and historical contexts.
