The Rwandan genocide was a systematic and intentional killing of Tutsi people by Hutu people. The genocide was carried out by the Rwandan government, the Rwandan Armed Forces (FAR), the Interahamwe, and other Hutu militias. The Rwandan genocide resulted in the deaths of an estimated 800,000 Tutsi people.
The RPF's capture of Kigali ended the genocide. The RPF then established a new government in Rwanda. The new government began to rebuild the country and to try to reconcile the Hutu and Tutsi people.
