In 1959, three years before independence from Belgium, the majority ethnic group, the Hutus,

overthrew the ruling Tutsi king. Over the next several years, thousands of Tutsis were killed, and some 150,000 driven into exile in neighboring countries. The children of these exiles later formed a rebel group, the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), and began a civil war in 1990. The war, along with several political and economic

upheavals, exacerbated ethnic tensions, culminating in April 1994 in the genocide of roughly 800,000 Tutsis and moderate

Hutus. The Tutsi rebels defeated the Hutu regime and ended the killing in July 1994, but approximately 2 million Hutu refugees –

many fearing Tutsi retribution - fled to neighboring Burundi, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zaire.;

HISTORY

More history……….

MORE HISTRYSince then, most of the refugees have returned to Rwanda, but several thousand remained in the neighboring Democratic Republic of the

Congo (DRC; the former Zaire) and formed an extremist insurgency bent on retaking Rwanda, much as the RPF tried in 1990. Despite

substantial international assistance and political reforms – including Rwanda's first local elections in March 1999 and its first post-genocide presidential and legislative elections in August and September 2003 – the country continues to struggle to boost investment and agricultural

output, and ethnic reconciliation is complicated by the real and perceived Tutsi political dominance. Kigali's increasing centralization

and intolerance of dissent, the nagging Hutu extremist insurgency across the border, and Rwandan involvement in two wars in recent years in the neighboring DRC continue to hinder

Rwanda's efforts to escape its bloody legacy.
