The MPR badge refers to the emblem of the Mouvement Populaire de la Révolution (MPR), the ruling party of the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire) under Joseph-Désiré Mobutu. The MPR was founded in 1967 and became the sole legal party in 1974, playing a dominant role in the country’s political landscape until Mobutu’s ousting in 1997. The MPR badge is a visual symbol of the party’s power and influence. The party’s official ideology was officially anti-communist, anti-capitalist, and centrist, according to Wikipedia. The MPR, with Mobutu at its helm, was instrumental in shaping the political and social landscape of the country, including implementing policies like “authenticity” and renaming cities. The MPR’s dominance ended with Mobutu’s fall from power.
