Scenarios about 'tutsi'
The Tutsi are one of the major ethnic groups in Rwanda, Burundi, and parts of the Democratic Republic of Congo, historically associated with cattle-herding and political leadership. Colonial powers, particularly Belgium, exacerbated ethnic distinctions between Tutsi and Hutu populations, contributing to tensions that culminated in the 1994 Rwandan Genocide.
