What are two similarities between Darfur and Rwandan genocides?
Other than the basic similarities of genocide (e.g. that they are mass-killings based on the race/ethnicity/religion of the target group) the genocides in Rwanda and Darfur have a large number of similarities:
- They were primarily organized on a local level by militias than by any national committees or top-down national groups.
- The main methods of attack were primitive, using machetes, knives, cleavers, and occasionally guns. No complex system of concentration or extermination camps were used and the genocide-committers would "come to their victims" as opposed to deporting their victims to special areas in order to kill them in a more uniform method.
- The types of behavior, once in a village to be subjugated, were typical. First, the men would all be hacked to death, then the women would be repetitively gang-raped, and then finally all of the homes would be burnt to the ground.
- In both cases, the United Nations provided no real assistance to the victims of the genocide, despite numerous debates and resolutions.
- The genocide was eventually ended when local militias and rebel armies were able to unseat the genocide-supporting government, without any serious foreign assistance.

What were the main causes of the Darfur genocide?
The government in Sudan is centralized in Khartoum and maintains the majority of the resources and jobs. Southern Sudan, including the Darfur region, have stressed a desire for independence or recognition from the Khartoum government. In response, the inherently Arabic government lashed out violently against the African minorities and rebel groups in the South. They hired militia called Janjaweed, also known as "The Devil on Horseback," and they were sent into towns and villages to burn, rape, and pillage. This forced many refugees and displaced peoples to settle in the neighboring country of Chad.

Grow up and be mature because this is an actual serious issue surrounding the world today and although you don't care, other people do.
