Tribal warfare that resulted in the Rwandan Genocide of the 1990's is believed to have its roots in class warfare. Cattle farming favored by the Tutsi is more profitable than the lower class and lower paid classic farming of the Hutus. Jealousy over perceived economic advantage and a history of colonialists placing Tutsis on a higher social level is believed to have fueled classes between the two tribes in the past.

Why did the hutu and tutsi fight?
The Hutu and the Tutsi, who were in fact the same race, were separated based on their appearances by their foreign, Belgian rulers prior to the genocide. The Hutu were the majority; they where more bulky in build and had darker skin. The Tutsi were taller, with lighter skin, and they made more money. For this reason hate for the Tutsi was common among the Hutu. Prejudiced radio stations were geared toward spreading hate for the Tutsi. The Tutsi were a scapegoat, targeted by the Hutu during difficult times in Rwanda. "Poverty breeds extremism"; for this reason the Hutu were willing to believe that the Tutsi were the root of their problems.
