Rwanda

---

On 6 April 1994, the deaths of the Presidents of Burundi and Rwanda in a plane crash caused by a rocket attack, ignited several weeks of intense and systematic massacres. The killings as many as 1 million people are estimated to have perished and shocked the international community and were clearly acts of genocide. An estimated 150,000 to 250,000 women were also raped.This was caused between the Hutus and Tutis. This ethic tensions in the country. Because the Tutsis had somuch power in the passed the Hutus wanted to get that power too as well. An this was there time having the mass majored to there side they wanted to wipe out the Tutis ethically. That is why the genocide began in the first place. They killed and raped so many Tutis people in the matter of days. I think that this not a good way to want gain power just by killing people.
