The DRC has an abundance of natural resources, such as minerals, human capital, water and livestock. Primarily due to this abundance, the World Bank sees the DRC as a developing nation with high possibility for economic growth, to the benefit of not only the country, but potentially to the entirety of the African continent. Over the years, the DRC has made substantial economic progress as demonstrated by their increased security, advancing economy, and introduction to democratic governance. While the country suffers from an ongoing conflict, the DRC has made considerable efforts to unify their army.
