Although people may say that lepolid was the reason for 10 million deaths I disagree. Henry morton Stanley was the reason for 10 million congenesis deaths. I think this because king Leopold never set foot in the congo well morton Stanley discovered and then used the congense people as slaves to make rubber. Some evidence to show that henry Morton Stanley was the reason for 10 million deaths is. "Stanley after the many rumours of his looting and killing in the interior of the African continent.Leopold eagerly received a disenchanted Stanley at his palace in June 1878, and signed a five-year contract with him in November".

henry Morton Stanley was the main cause for 10 million deaths this evidence shows that due to his harsh and rude investment of endless torture. Something that king leopold didn't do infact king leopold never set foot in the congo. But Henry Morton Stanley was the one to discover and then torcher the congneses people to make rubber.

In the evidence it says that "many rummars of his looting killing interior of the African content" this evidence shows that he had to be the cause for 10 million deaths because it says "killing" although some of his solders may have done that it was his orders due to his brutal arm chopping and killing rules if rubber was not made.

Stanley wrote: "You can find it on almost any tree. As we made our way through the forest, it was literally raining rubber juice.

due to henry Morton Stanley's addiction over rubber like said in the text turned to abuse labor and other consequence like said later in the text "rubber extraction was divided among concessionaires. This soon led to abuses, when the switch was made to "forced labour" this shows how he was the reason for 10 million condense deaths because of his addiction for rubber

well some people may think that king leopold the II was the reason for 10 million congneses deaths i disagree. I think this because well he may have fundeed for henry Morton Stanley and all the operations he could have said no. What I mean is that henry morton Stanley didn't have to do this it was his choice and it was his bigger choice to abuse them into hard labor. Also king Leopold didn't even set foot in the congo. So this shows it must have been the that henry morton Stanley killed 10 million congress people.

Henry Morton Stanley
