Timeline of Rwanda before 1994
Here are three images noting monumental events in the history of the collapse of Rwanda. Tutsis and Hutus forget they are one in the same and place blame on each other for economic downfall. Sadly, these events lead to an unfortunate mass slaughtering within their country beginning on April 7th, 1994.
