Kinshasa is the capital of DR Congo.

It is the largest city in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the largest francophone city in the world. Once a site of fishing and trading villages situated along the Congo River, Kinshasa is now one of the world's fastest-growing megacities. It faces Brazzaville, the capital of the neighboring Republic of the Congo; the two cities are the world's second-closest pair of capital cities (after Vatican City and Rome).
