Answer 1

Most of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is covered by the central sub-Saharan Africa.

Answer 2

Most of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is covered by the Congolese rainforests.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo lies at the heart of the central-western portion of Sub-Saharan Africa and borders Angola, the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania (bordering the lake Tanganyika) and Zambia. The territory is crossed by the equator, with a third of the country in the Northern Hemisphere and two thirds in the Southern Hemisphere.

As a result of its equatorial location, the Democratic Republic of the Congo has very high rainfall rates; the annual average of the country is of 1,070 mm. All this rain creates the Congolese Rainforests, the second largest in the world. The exuberant vegetation covers a large part of the river basin, until it empties into the Atlantic to the west. This area is surrounded by savannas to the south and southwest, by mountainous terrain to the west and dense grasslands extended beyond the Congo River to the north. High mountains can be found in the easternmost region of the country.
