An Entity of Type: WikicatEthnicGroupsInRwanda, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

The largest ethnic groups in Rwanda are the Hutus, which make up about 85% of Rwanda's population; the Tutsis, which are 14%; and the Twa, which are around 1%. Starting with the Tutsi feudal monarchy rule of the 10th century, the Hutus were a subjugated social group. It was not until Belgian colonization that the tensions between the Hutus and Tutsis became focused on race, the Belgians propagating the myth that Tutsis were the superior ethnicity. The resulting tensions would eventually foster the slaughtering of tutsis in the Rwandan genocide. Since then, policy has changed to recognize one main ethnicity: "Rwandan".

dbo:abstract
  • Els principals grups ètnics de Ruanda són els hutus, qui representen al voltant del 85% de la població de Ruanda; els tutsis, que són del 14%; i el twa, 1%. Durant el domini de monarquia feudal tutsi del segle x, els hutus eren un grup social subjugat. No va ser fins a la colonització belga que la tensió entre els hutus i tutsis es va enfocar en la qüestió racial, els belgues propagar el mite que els tutsi eren l'ètnia superior. Les tensions resultants eventualment afavoririen la matança dels tutsis en el genocidi ruandès. Des de llavors, la política del govern ha canviat per reconèixer un únic origen ètnic: "ruandès". En comparació amb els hutus, els tutsis tenen tres vegades més influències genètiques de les poblacions niloticosaharianes (14,9% B) que els hutus (4,3% B). (ca)
