King Alfonso is the new ruler of Kongolese society after his father has passed away in 1506; Alfonso claimed the throne and ruled until 1542. During his ruling he sent letters to their new ally’s king, King Jodo III of Portugal. It states that the Kongo needs aid from the Portuguese.

He does not want the merchants trading slaves in the country corrupting his Good-hearted Christian people.
