Leaders in Darfur firstly was asking for autonomy and full control of their economy (having in mind abundance of gas and petroleum). This was not approved by Sudanese Govt. Years passed and at point Darfurians organized themselves and demanded freedom for their territory. Sudan at all not liked it. Started arresting and harrousment. Darfurians revolted, took some arms in their own hand. Then Sudanese Govt (President Umr Al Bashar), created and sponsored Janjaweed Militia. In 2003, having the support with arms and money the Janjaweed (also backed by Sudanese Army) launched attacks to kill the people indiscremenantly. This is the beginning of mass killing, diplacement of ordinary people, burning, raping..and more. This is genocide!

Why did the world ignore the Armenian genocide?

not all of the world ignored the Armenian genocide, infact there are many countries who believe the Armenian genocide happened (which is great) only some of the major countries (like U.S.A) stilll don't believe that the genocide happened, because Turkey is one of the major countries of the world and America is friends with them, so i guess that's why they ignored the Armenian genocide, plus, people are saying " It happened already! Why do we have to care about something that happened in 1915?!" Well, I'll tell you why, this genocide led to many genocides that were influenced by the Ottoman Empire, Like the Jewish Genocide, and Darfur, And Rwanda. It's all about power, and Turkey is powerful.
