People's Republic of the Congo (Simba Rebellion)

Not to be confused with the country Republic of the Congo that once used the same name.'''

In 1963-64, the Simba rebellion spread throughout the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Five older stamps including those of the Belgian Congo were overprinted REPUBLIQUE / POPULAIRE. There are other values known overprinted but either were never issued or have not been seen used.

The revolt was essentially ended by November 1965.  File:Peop Rep of Congo Simba 70c.jpg|70c overprint File:Peop Rep of Congo Simba 6.50.jpg|6.50f unissued value
