This is before the Bost Massacre, King George III of England was irritated with the colonists in America. The colonists didn't want to pay tax on English products; for example lead, glass, paint, wine and tea. In 1768 he sent 4,000 British troops as well as a bunch of warships to the colonies to show the colonists that England was in control.The colonists were really mad with how they were being treated and obviously tensions were rising. King George III was acting like he owned the people in the colonies. The colonists were not allowed to own their own guns or have any say about their own property. Soon after the troops were sent into the colonies the people had had enough of being bossed around.The colonists were so feed up with the whole situation that on March 5, 1770 a bunch of schoolboys started throwing snowballs and calling names at a guard at the Customs house in Boston. Everything escalated and got totally out of control when the guard called for back up and somebody shot off a musket. Then more people started shooting. At the end of the riot there were five colonists dead. One of the colonists was Crispus Attuck a run away slave. And he was the first black hero in the American Revolution.<span>King George III had caused all the tensions to rise because of his unfair treatment of the colonists. Anyone who is treated unfairly will react like this sooner or later.</span>
<span>The Roman Catholic Counter-Reformation was intended to fight back against the Protestant Reformation: to reform and strengthen the Catholic Church against this great Protestant threat, partly by purging itself of the corruption and quesitonable practices that had given rise to the Proetstant Reformation in the first place. </span>
Serfs/Peasants would live on the protected land of the lord's manor in exchange for food and goods. The serfs/peasants basically fueled the manor and created self sufficiency, to the point where some lords even forbade Serfs/Peasants to leave their estate.

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.
