    Answer: Leopold and his people believed that white superiority was ordained by God

    Explanation: Leopold was the king of the Belgians from 1865 to 1909. Keen on establishing Belgium as an imperial power, he led the first European efforts to develop the Congo River basin, now the Democratic Republic of Congo. Although he could be said to have played a significant role in the development of the modern Belgian state, he was however responsible for widespread atrocities committed under his rule against his colonial subjects.

    Presenting himself as a philanthropist eager to bring the benefits of Christianity, Western civilization, and commerce to African natives-a guise that he perpetuated for many years to loot and oppress the people of the Congo. His soldiers enforced various atrocious acts with the belief that it was God's will for Caucasians to be superior.
