Inter-ethnic strife.

It mainly had to do with political power. The Hutus wanted more political power. At the time a Tutsis was president of Rwanda. The Hutus were willing to do anything to get that power. Even killing...

Genocides are one of the most difficult things to prevent. By the time the outside world knows about one, it has gone for weeks, months or years. More than six decades after the Holocaust, the horrors of Bosnia, Rwanda, and Darfur are sobering reminders that preventing future genocides and mass atrocities remains an enormous challenge. Some persons think that genocide is not the inevitable result of ancient hatreds or irrational leaders. Perpetrators of genocide and mass atrocities cannot succeed without the support of other governments and corporations; so preventing mass atrocities requires political will.

The genocide was planned by members of the core political elite known as the akazu, many of whom occupied positions at top levels of the national government. Perpetrators came from the ranks of the Rwandan army, the National Police (gendarmerie), government-backed militias including the Interahamwe and Impuzamugambi, and the Hutu civilian population.

The genocide took place in the context of the Rwandan Civil War, an ongoing conflict beginning in 1990 between the Hutu-led government and the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), which was largely composed of Tutsi refugees whose families had fled to Uganda following earlier waves of Hutu violence against the Tutsi. Most of the dead were Tutsis and most of those who perpetrated the violence were Hutus. The genocide was sparked by the death of the Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana, a Hutu, when his plane was shot down above Kigali airport on 6 April 1994.

Rwandans in film are often portrayed through the lens of their tumultuous history, particularly the 1994 genocide, which shapes narratives around resilience, survival, and reconciliation. Many films highlight themes of community, forgiveness, and the pursuit of justice, showcasing the strength and agency of individuals amidst tragedy. Additionally, Rwandan culture, traditions, and the spirit of unity are sometimes celebrated, providing a more nuanced view beyond the historical context. Overall, representations can range from victimhood to empowerment, reflecting the complex realities of Rwandan society.

Former Yugoslavia, Rwanda, Burundi, Kashmir, and Cyprus all experienced significant ethnic or national conflicts that led to violence, displacement, and humanitarian crises. Each region has a complex history of intercommunal tensions fueled by political, historical, and territorial disputes. These conflicts often involve competing national identities and claims to land, resulting in wars, genocide, or protracted violence. Additionally, international involvement and intervention have played roles in these conflicts, highlighting global implications and challenges in resolution.

The international community failed the people of Rwanda by ignoring early warning signs of the impending genocide in 1994 and not intervening to prevent the mass killings. Despite clear evidence of escalating violence and calls for assistance, key nations, including the United States and France, hesitated to act, largely due to a reluctance to engage in another African conflict. The United Nations also fell short by failing to provide adequate support for peacekeeping forces and allowing the situation to deteriorate without decisive action. This inaction resulted in the deaths of an estimated 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus in just 100 days.

As of my last update in October 2023, the exact number of Rwandan professional footballers can vary over time due to player transfers, retirements, and new signings. Rwanda has a growing football scene, with players participating in both domestic leagues and international clubs. The Rwanda Football Federation and various scouting initiatives continue to promote talent, contributing to an increasing number of professionals in the sport. For the most accurate and current figure, consulting the latest statistics from Rwandan football authorities or sports news sources is recommended.
