In this country, several Irish UN peacekeepers were attacked in the Niemba ambush by members of its Luba people. In the 1930s, both the German nuclear program and the Manhattan Project sourced uranium from this modern-day country’s Shinkolobwe (“shin-koh-LOH-bway”) Mine. In 1960, the MNC joined with Joseph Kasa-Vubu’s ABAKO party in this country, which fought a secessionist movement led by Moïse Tshombe (“mo-EEZ SHOM-bay”). Dag Hammarskjöld (“HAM-er-schuld”) died in a plane crash while traveling to negotiate a ceasefire in the Katanga War, part of a “Crisis” in this country that led to the rise of Mobutu Sese-Seko. For 10 points, name this country first led by Patrice Lumumba from Kinshasa. ■END■
