Why did Hutus in rwanada hold a deep hatred for the Tutsis

Answer 1

Answer: Rwandan genocide was the mass killings of Tutsi in Rwanda, it started on 5th April and lasted till 15 July 1994 during the Rwandan civil war. It was organised by Hutu Politicians who occupied important positions in the national government. Historians claim that it was planned a year in advance but killing of President Juvenal Habyrimana on 6th April 1994 and gave the opportunity for the killings. Tutsi's and Hutu's are found from Cameroon to Uganda and in South Africa.

The people who were close to the king were known as Tutsi's and the people away from the king were Hutu's and didn't own much wealth, Tutsi owned lots of cattle . when the colonial rule started in nineteenth century the Belgian groups 'do much to bring the groups together in the regions which later became Rwanda and Burundi and forced Hutus and Tutsi's to carry ethnic identity cards with them. It also aggravated the divisions by only allowing the Tutsi's to hold positions of power and attain h higher education. It was due to this the Hutu's hated Tutsi's.
