Rwanda gained its independence from Belgium in 1965. ANSWER: FALSE

History
1 answer:
Bezzdna [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: False

Explanation:

Rwanda gained independence in 1962 and inherited strong tribal divisions when it happened. The Belgians like most European colonists, had employed "Dived and Rule" tactics where they would stroke ethic divisions so that the tribes would fight themselves instead of Belgium.

To this end they actively supported the Tutsi against the larger Hutu who were incensed by this such that when they took over after independence, violence against the Tutsi people continually increased until it culminated in the Rwandan genocide.

Answer:

Bolivar was able to free Venezuela from Spanish rule and abolish slavery.

Explanation:

Simon Bolivar was the most influential and famous among the leaders of the war for the independence of the Spanish colonies in America. He is the national hero of Venezuela. He began his military activity in 1810, being already quite a mature man. Bolivar joined Francisco de Miranda, who rebelled against the Spaniards, and soon became one of the most respected leaders of the rebels. Among the other leaders of the rebels, he stood out for his education and knowledge of military art. On July 5, 1811, rebels proclaimed Venezuela an independent republic. After the defeat of the republic by Spanish troops in 1812, Bolivar settled in New Granada (now Colombia), and at the beginning of 1813 the rebel army led by him entered the territory of Venezuela. In August 1813, his troops occupied the capital of Caracas and soon the Second Venezuelan Republic was created, headed by Bolivar. Venezuelan National Congress awarded Simon Bolivar the title of Liberator.
