A monster you never heard of

You will have heard of Hitler, Stalin and Mao. All people famous for killing thousands and even millions of others. Perhaps Djengis Khan can be on that list. And Idi Amin. And no doubt there are countless others who think killing lots of people is a good thing and - unfortunately - put the action where the mouth is. But you probably never heard of a man responsible for the deaths of an estimated 15 million people. Not just any man but a king even. A white king. From Belgium.

King Leopold II
