Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei:
I whakawhiwhia ki te mana motuhake i te Pipiri 1960, ka noho a Katanga hei kawanatanga motuhake. I te 11 o Hōngongoi 1960, i wehe atu a Katanga i te kawanatanga hou o Patrice Lumumba, i kii i te rangatiratanga i raro i a Moise Tshombe, kaiarahi o te roopu a rohe, te CONAKAT ("Confédération des associations tribales du Katanga": Federation of Katanga tribal associations). Ahakoa tenei, kaore te kawanatanga Katangese hou i te tautoko puta noa i te kawanatanga, ina koa kaore i nga rohe o Baluba ki te raki.
