History of BURUNDI Ruanda, in which ethnic violence has continued during 1960 and 1961, becomes a republic (automatically, since the young ruler has fled and has been formally deposed in his absence). In Urundi the Tutsi monarchy proves at first more resilient, both in holding on to the reins of power and in attempting a resolution of the Tutsi-Hutu conflict. In 1957 Hutu leaders in Ruanda publish a Hutu Manifesto, preparing their supporters for a future political conflict to be conducted entirely on ethnic lines. www.historyworld.net /wrldhis/PlainTextHistories.asp?historyid=ad25   (1643 words)

Africa and Communism - Chapter 6 Four centuries ago a tribe of giant cattle-owners moved south from Ethiopia to settle in lush country near Lake Tanganyika in what was to become known as the twin countries of Ruanda- Urundi and then, after independence, Rwanda and Burundi.
