Whenever people are compelled to migrate or be displaced, this is called compelled departure. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Kwango people's compelled relocation to nearby nations like Uganda. The study featured 167 individuals, 124 of whom were male (74.25%) and 43 of whom were female (25.75%). The majority of those who participated (22.7%) were 51 years old, while the general population share of participants between the ages of 31 and 40 was 15.5%. These figures show that there are more persons in Kwango who are 41, 50, and 51 years old or older. However, 12% of the participants were widowed or widowers, and 40% of participants were single. While 61% of those surveyed firmly believed that they are comfortable with the effects of Kwango culture movement, 0% strongly disagreed. According to the findings, almost all of those who participated were single, making them a good fit for this study. 9% of the participants entirely agreed, while 43% disputed that compelled relocation is a new behavior. In summary, the study showed that violence during political conflicts, persecuting politicians, compelled displacement, violations of human rights, and environmental issues harmonica/ecological disaster caused the Kwango people of the Democratic country of the Congo to migrate to Uganda, leaving them stranded and departing their culture.
