Thread: Congo sues Norway for $500 BILLION dollars!

Also economics power, alliances, trade partners. Does the "Democratic Republic" of Congo have any of these? Lack of better words: I thought it was a backwater full of constant infighting and civil war. I don't think it has anything to threaten Norway with, other than a PR stunt.

Not to mention that should they attack, NATO (the US) would have to join in on our side... Good luck Congo

By the way the country sueing Norway isn't the Democratic Republic of Congo, but the Republic of Congo aka Congo-Brazzaville.

It is the Light green country and not the dark green one.

It is the big Congo, not the small Congo. (Org flag is the previous flag; I suppose)
