Assigned Blog #7

For my Assigned blog i had rwanda.

Rwanda is a counrty in central and Eastern Africa. What happend in Rwanda was a Genocide witch is a mass killing of like a certain group of people. The Rwanda genocide was started by a group of Hutu's called the Akazu. Rwandas population is mostly Hutu's and Tutsi's. They had I.D cards to identify if they were tutsis or Hutus, and the Hutu's would call the tutsi's cockroaches. The genocide was in 1994 were and estimated 800,000 people were killed in 100 days.  In 1990 the Rwandan Patriotic Front wich is a rebel group of mostly Tutsi refugees invaded Northern Rwanda from Uganda to try and defeat the Hutu-led government. That began what they called the Rwanda Civil War. The Hutu's were mad because the tutsi rebels killed their president Habyarimana. I think it was a bad thing that happend to the tutsis and that more should have been dont to stop it.
