Before it was known as Rwanda, the region was often referred to as "Ruanda." This name was used in various historical and colonial contexts. Additionally, during the colonial period, Rwanda was part of German East Africa and later became a Belgian mandate after World War I. The modern name "Rwanda" has its roots in the local Kinyarwanda language.
