This included sweeping guts of the floor and the inclusion of rats in meat sold to the American people. The conditions described disgusted the American people and resulted in president Teddy Roosevelt passing the Meat Inspection Act of 1906. This law would ensure the cleanliness and safety of meat sold to the American public by having the government inspect these types of factories.

The Rwandan Civil War was between the Hutu's and the Tutsi's.

The Hutu's made up a large majority of the population. However, a Hutu Manifesto published in the middle of the 20th century claimed that the minority group of the country (the Tutsis) were manipulating and controlling the government. Essentially, they were blaming the Tutsi for the problems in Rwanda. This helped lead to the Rwandan Civil War and the Rwandan genocide.
