Think about where the most infamous Hutu–Tutsi conflict unfolded in recent history. Rwanda is that country. Colonial powers in Rwanda reinforced ethnic identities and counting Hutus and Tutsis, and after independence the power struggle intensified, culminating in the 1994 genocide in which many Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed. This tragic event is central to why the Hutu–Tutsi conflict is closely tied to Rwanda. While Burundi also has Hutu and Tutsi groups and its own tensions, the well-known modern conflict most people refer to is in Rwanda. So the country is Rwanda.
