Definición

  • The roots of the genocide of members of the Tutsi, which resulted in the loss of up to 1 million lives in Rwanda between April and July 1994, lie in the colonial history of the East African country. After the colony's independence from Belgium in 1962, the Hutu majority of the population came into power and began to discriminate against the Tutsi minority group.
