In 1994, there was an unfortunate incidence which took place in Rwanda Republic. According to the record of United Nations, 800,000 to 1,071,000 people were killed in three months due to the genocide. This genocide is considered as the conflict between the two tribes in Rwanda---Hutus, carrying out the genocide, and Tutsis, having been massacred. Since it was really an amazing unfortunate event, many people in the world sympathized with that sad incidence. However, most people today think that we, as the citizen of the democratic society, are inconsequential to that genocide; it just happened because of the conflict of those two tribes in Rwanda. I strongly disagree with that idea, and in this research project, I claim that we are the part of cause of the Rwandan genocide. Why did the genocide happen? What is the purpose of genocide? What are people trying to achieve in carrying out genocide? What is even genocide? Finally, are we the cause of the incidents?

These two source talks about the actual fact about the Rwandan genocide: when it happens, how many people had been involved, and etc. Since what written in this book is all about the facts and statistics, Fisanick provides us certainly objective information.
History is sometimes subjective because people tend to make their convenient history. Therefore, the universal fact of the history certainly helps us to avoid being...
