Behind Belgium’s polished image as a small, peaceful European nation lies one of the most gruesome and underacknowledged chapters in human history. Kingdom of Horror exposes the brutal truth of Belgium’s colonial reign in Africa, particularly in the Congo Free State, where King Leopold II orchestrated a regime of terror, exploitation, and genocide that claimed millions of African lives.

Sam Prajnananda delivers a piercing account of how rubber, ivory, and greed fueled one of the most violent extraction economies ever known—complete with forced labor, mutilations, executions, and the destruction of entire communities. This book does not flinch in its pursuit of historical justice, naming the Belgian monarchs, missionaries, and corporate interests who enriched themselves at the cost of unimaginable suffering.

Readers will uncover:

  • The horrors of Leopold’s private empire and its global cover-up

  • The complicity of European elites, churches, and corporations

  • The ongoing legacy of trauma, underdevelopment, and silence in the Congo

  • The demand for reparations, memorialization, and truth-telling

Kingdom of Horror is not a tale of distant history—it’s a reckoning with a legacy that continues to shape Africa and Europe today.

Because true healing begins with facing the blood that still stains the crown.
