Sundi
Ethnic group in the Democratic Republic of Congo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sundi (also Sundis, Nsundi, Basundi, Kongo-Sundi, Suundi and Manyanga) are a Central African people established in three countries, in the Republic of Congo – particularly in the Niari department (Kimongo and Londes-Lakayes), in the Bouenza department (Boko-Songho) and in the Pool Department –, in Angola (Cabinda) and in the Democratic Republic of Congo.[1] They are considered to be the largest subgroup of the Kongo people.[2][3][4][5][6] Early in the nineteenth century there were wars between Sundi and Teke when Teke moved southwest into the Niari valley.[7]
