Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Berlin Conference, held between 1884 and 1885, was attended by major European powers and the Ottoman Empire, but the Congo Free State (or any representative from the African continent) was not represented. The conference was primarily about the partition of Africa among European powers, and the Congo was directly affected by its outcomes, notably coming under the personal control of King Leopold II of Belgium, but it did not have its own representatives there.
