Rwanda Genocide 1994

Background Information of Rwandan Genocide:
-Rwandan Genocide was a 1994 mass execution of Central African groups called the Hutus and Tutsis
-In a period of 100 days between April 6, 1994-mid-July 1994 between 500,000 and 1,000,000 Tutsis and thousands of moderate Hutus were executed.
-The mass killings were done by two Hutu extremist groups called the Interahamwe and Impuzamugambi.
-This conflict dates back centuries over land ownership after the colonization of Africa.
-In 1985, Paul Kagame started the Tutsi Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) because he was fed up with the lack of rights the Tutsis had in Rwanda.
-On October 1, 1990 the RPF invaded Rwanda and this action was seen as a threat by the Rwandan government.
-On April 6, 1994 the President of Rwanda and President of Burundi were killed after there plane was shot down before landing in Kigali, Rwanda
-Paul Kagame and the RPF were blamed for this event even though it has never been proved that they actually commited the crime.
-In response to the assasination the Rwandan militia and Hutu militia groups began moving around and executing as many Tutsis as possible.
