The Republic of the Congo gained independence through negotiations with the colonial power, Belgium. There was not a significant armed resistance movement in the Congo leading up to independence, and the process was primarily driven by diplomatic negotiations between Congolese leaders, including Patrice Lumumba, and Belgian authorities. External pressure from other countries and international bodies, as well as the desire of the colonial power to grant independence, also played a role in the decolonization process.
