year after the First Congo War (and involving some of the same issues), in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The war officially ended in July 2003, when the Transitional Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo took power. Although a peace agreement was signed in 2002, violence continued in many regions of the country, especially in the eastern region.\u201d \u2013 Second Congo War \u2013 Wikipedia<\/a><\/li>\n<li><em><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oocities.org\/afonseca\/CongoWar.htm\" >Four Million Dead \u2013 Second Congolese War \u2013 1998 \u2013 2004, by Alroy Foncesa \u2013 OOCities.org<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.onwar.com\/aced\/chrono\/c1900s\/yr98\/secondcongowar.htm\" >SECOND CONGO WAR 1998 \u2013 2003 \u2013 OnWar.com<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.globalsecurity.org\/military\/world\/war\/congo.htm\" >\u201cThe International Rescue Committee said that between August 1998 and April 2004 (when a bulk of the fighting occurred) some 3.8 million people died in the DRC.
