Les Tribus de la RDC
The Les Tribus de la RDC app is a travel and navigation application available on the Android platform. Developed by malangacongoxl.com, this free app aims to provide information about the various ethnic groups and tribes in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
The DRC is known for its diverse population consisting of several hundred ethnic groups. However, this app highlights that there are actually around 250 tribes grouped together within eight linguistic families, according to Malcolm Guthrie. It also identifies 212 languages spoken in the DRC, including non-Bantu, Ubangi, or Nilo-Saharan languages.
The app delves into the origins of these ethnic groups, which are the result of waves of Bantu migrations from the 1st to the 16th century. The term "Bantu" refers to a linguistic community rather than a specific ethnic group, encompassing around 400 related languages spoken across central and southern Africa.
With "The Tribes of the DRC" app, users can explore and learn about all the tribes in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, categorized by region. It provides a comprehensive overview of the cultural diversity and linguistic richness of the country.
