Greece is actually quite well off: Its government is democratic-communist much like UWR and USWR, it's stable, and it is quite prosperous. However, the Greeks still grumble about the result of the referendum (it was actually free and fair!) which split the Free Republic of the Straits off, and they also have quite a fast cycle of government changes. Corruption is also, mildly said, not unknown in Greece.
And yes, the Congo is still sort of Belgian, but that is now only nominal. Belgians don't dictate anymore, and most things are decided by (for the most part) Congolese politicians. A bit more than how Canada was still British until 1986(?), though, maybe like 1940s Canada.
