The Democratic Republic of Congo has been home to several internal conflicts across decades, which have played a huge part in it being counted among the worst countries in the world. DRC was also impacted severely by Covid-19 but in 2021, rebounded well to record a growth rate of 6.2% in 2021, followed by 8.9% in 2022, and is a perfect example of how rewarding and risky it is to invest in such economies.
