Expert Answer
The most important form of transportation in the Democratic Republic of Congo is the waterways since the construction of roads and railways in the country has been extremely difficult due to the hilly terrain and swampy areas of the Congo Basin. No significant projects for building roads and railway lines have been undertaken primarily due to political instability and internal strife in the country.
Further, the Democratic Republic of Congo has many navigable rivers and thus water transport has become an important means of transport in the country.
