Best Answer

The tribe that was targeted were the Tutsis. They were targeted by the Hutus. The Hutus hated the Tutsis and the Tutsis hated the Hutus. After the president was shot down in a plane the whole government fell apart and the Hutus took over the goverment and tragically started taking out Tutsis.

What is Rwanda like now?

Although Rwanda is technically a democracy, voting for a president every seven years, a new constitution established in 2003, bans political parties from being based on race, ethnicity, clan, tribe, region, sex, religion or anything that might be used in a discriminatory way. According to Human rights activists, this essentially makes Rwanda a one-party government. Rwanda is still one of ten poorest countries in the world. Laws also prevent the discussion of the genocide, which stagnates the healing process of the families of victims.
