Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Gbadolite or Gbado-Lite is the capital of the Nord-Ubangi Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The town is located 12 kilometres south of the Ubangi River at the border to the Central African Republic and 1,150 kilometres northeast of the national capital Kinshasa. Gbadolite was the ancestral home and the residence of Mobutu Sese Seko, who was President of Zaire from 1965 to 1997. Mobutu built Gbadolite into a luxurious town often nicknamed "Versailles of the Jungle". He built a hydroelectric dam on the nearby Ubangi River in Mobayi Mbongo, an international airport, Moanda Airport, which could accommodate the Concorde, and three large palaces. As a result, the people of the town had no trouble finding jobs, often as servants. During Mobutu's regime, Gbadolite had also companies such as CDIA for farming productions, SOZAGEC for road constructions, and SAFRICAS for house constructions.
