Central Africa
The Bembe people are one of the subgroups of the Kongo, Zaire, and Angola, mostly concentrated in southern Congo, northern Angola, and northwestern Zaire. The Bembe are tough and proud people who absorb other populations and their systems of thought in the process of carving out their current homeland in a time of widespread conflict and invasions by slave traders during the 19th century.
