Answer:

Death.

Step-by-step explanation:

The colonies controlled by Belgian was known to give harsher treatments toward the colonized people. One of the cruelest king that made the colonies suffered the most was a man known as the King Leopold II of the Belgians. He believed that giving direct threat/consequences for their action will make them work more. He was known to give hard punishments for meeting the quotas.

During his reign, it is predicted that more than 1 mullion Africans died. He did this in order to instill fear within the people.
