In this episode we depart from the West and the Kingdom of the Kongo to todays Eastern provinces of the DRC.
We see the unique topography here and enjoy a more detailed introduction to two further great African peoples and empires - the Luba and the Lunda.
These peoples lived and live in a geologically dynamic land with mountains, lakes and active Volcanoes. This area was the cradle of humanity, and in the 16th centuries they sat amidst a trading system that spanned from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic.
