civil war in rwanda
In this essay I will be writing about the civil war in Rwanda. I will be explaining, why it happened, how it happened, when it happened, and give you all the details.A mountainous country in east central Africa, the Republic of Rwanda lies south of the equator. It is one of Africa's smallest countries, covering an area of only 10,169 square miles (26,338 square kilometers). Zaire and Lake Kivu border Rwanda on the west, Uganda on the north, Tanzania on the east, and Burundi on the south. Rwanda's relief consists of a series of hills with steep slopes that often alternate with deep valleys. A chain of volcanoes, the Virunga Mountains, is in the north. Numerous small lakes are scattered in the southeast. It contains a population of 6,700,000
It all ended and they were able to get back to how they were, only that Tutsis took control over the presidency. They were only able to kill 800,000 but to them it was a success. This war was between the Hutus and the Tutsis. They weren't treated with much respect either. In conclusion, as you have read, this civil war lasted fourteen weeks. This gave command to all military and militia groups to kill all of the Tutsis. Tutsis aswell as Hutus began to fled and entered Zaire, Burundi, Uguanda, and Tanzania for protection. The civil war in Rwanda began in April 1994 and ended July 1994. Another reason was because they didn't agree in sharing Rwanda in political matters. This civil war only lasted fourteen weeks. The other 600,000, 100,000 of them stood in their new "homes" and the 500,000 died. Rwanda was like a toy both Hutus and Tutsis wanted but couldn't share.
