before the genocide, the Hutu's and the Tutsi's lived together and even married each other, however, there had always been disagreements between the two tribes. traditionally, the Tutsi's ruled the country, but the Hutu's didn't really like the idea as the Tutsi's were only ruling the country because they were the much bigger tribe. the killing was sparked by the death of the Rwandan president, a Hutu. his plane was shot down on April 6 1994, and the Hut's assumed that it was the Tutsi's who killed him, therefore, it sparked the genocide, but to this day, no one is sure who shot down the plane.
