They tried. Before Congo they tried colonizing Guatemala but it was a failure because they didn't have enough resources to keep the colony existing. They were given Congo after the Berlin Conference and Leopold II used it as his private grounds for spending his vacations or having fun when he was on vacation. The colony was basically his playground.
