The three ethnic groups shared many things, such as: Kinyarwanda, which is their language, culture, and customs. The ethnic division in 1994 was 1% Twa, 15% Tutsi, and 84% Hutu. The Rwandan President, Gregoire Keyibanda, wanted the Tutsi refugees to remove their power so the whole race will be gone. In the 1990s

There is a division on the historical development of pre-colonial Rwanda. One side of the divide indicates an “ethnic” diversity based partially on occupational status – a patron/client relationship and also the ancestral lineage of Hutu and Tutsi. The other side of the divide indicates that “until written descriptions by the first European travelers, people identified themselves according to clan rather than ethnic affiliation, and that the description of so called ethnic groups was laid down by

population by age and sex than would otherwise be expected (July 2016 est.)” The lower population of Rwanda is due to genocide and low life expectancy that is seen in most of African countries. There are 84% Hutus (Bantu), 15% Tutsi (Hamitic) and 1% Twa

Mithra Derakshan 25 October 2010 Professor Reed Burundi Burundi is a resource-poor country in Eastern Africa, bordered by Rwanda, The Republic of Congo, and Tanzania. The country is about the size of Maryland, and has a population of about 9,511,000 people (CIA World Factbook). Burundi is known for having one of the highest population densities in all of Africa. It is a country with a drawn out history plagued with war, conquest, and detrimental ethnic conflicts. It has a moderate tropical climate

The Hutu and the Tutsi are two different racial groups in Rwanda. The group that owned most of the cattle in Rwanda was called the Tutsi and everyone else was the Hutu. Now if an individual wanted to become a Tutsi they just had to marry into this group or acquire cattle. First the Belgians gave the Tutsi who were only 10 percent of the population all the leadership roles in the government. This upset the Hutus since they were 90 percent of the population in Rwanda. Eventually the Belgians

which is located in the center of the country. In 1991, the population of Rwanda was 7.7 million, according to the national census. Rwanda was made up of three ethnic groups 90 percent of the population was Hutu, 9 percent was Tutsi, and 1 percent was Twa (Worldwithoutgenocide.org, 2013). A civil war broke out between the two major ethnic groups the Hutus and the Tutsis, which led to a large-scale

and Tutsis have endured an extremely unequal relationship from the beginning. The Hutu are generally thought of as the primary settlers in this region and the Tutsi and a foreign group that would later come to establish themselves. In actuality, the Twa, a people that is still around today, were the first to inhabit this area, but were quickly outnumbered dominated by the Hutu, with whom they traded goods. Over ten thousand

the Hutus and the Tutsis in Rwanda started out centuries ago, then continued through colonial periods and after independence and eventually caused the genocide in 1994. Several centuries ago, there were three different ethnical groups in Rwanda. The Twas were the original inhabitants of Rwanda. The Hutus were the majority; they were mostly peasant cultivators. The Tutsis were the minority, however, they had cattle ownership (“Rwanda: Background”). They were wealthy, and they generally occupied higher
