The Portuguese impose a peace treaty on the Bakongo.

Its conditions, however, are so harsh that peace is never really achieved, and hostilities grow during the 1660s.

The Portuguese victory over the Bakongo at the Battle of Mbwila (also spelled Ambuila) on October 29, 1665, marks the end of the Kongo Kingdom as a unified power.
