During the early 1990s, extremists from the majority ethnic group (Hutus) attributed social and economic problems in Rwanda to the presence of the Tutsi people, a minority ethnic group. In 1994, about 200,000 Hutu extremists killed over 800,000 Tutsi people, as well as thousands of Hutus who opposed the genocide [x]. Since the Rwandan Genocide, the country has been knitting itself back together, with Tutsis working alongside Hutus to rebuild their communities.
