Rwanda

Rwanda is a landlocked country located in East Africa, bordered by Uganda to the north, Tanzania to the east, Burundi to the south, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west. Its capital and largest city is Kigali.

Rwanda has a population of approximately 13.6 million people, with the majority of the population being Hutu (85%) and Tutsi (14%). The official languages are Kinyarwanda, French, and English. The currency used in Rwanda is the Rwandan franc.

The country's economy is predominantly based on agriculture, with coffee and tea being major exports. In recent years, Rwanda has made efforts to diversify its economy by investing in tourism, information and communication technology, and renewable energy.

Rwanda has a complex history, with ethnic tensions between the Hutu and Tutsi peoples leading to a genocide in 1994 in which approximately 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed. Since then, Rwanda has made significant progress in rebuilding its society and economy. It is often cited as an example of successful post-conflict reconstruction and has achieved strong economic growth and development in recent years.

The country is also known for its beautiful natural scenery, including the Volcanoes National Park, home to the endangered mountain gorillas, and Lake Kivu, a popular destination for water sports and relaxation.
