Resolutions

Resolutions to conflicts:

• One solution would be to give equal say in government.
• Equal education
• United Nations interventionto stabilize the area and help form the new government
• Re-educate the people so that they are of the same essential lineage and to embrace it by encouraging them to live and go to school together.
• Peace talks would intervene and allow them to co-exsist even though it is said that they are two different tribes and have nothing in common therefore they should not have been put together.

Conceivable Conflicts

Four conflicts between the Tutsi:

• The Tutsi's were considered superior to the Hutu's because they have a longer, more Europeon looking nose. Because of their perceived Europeon descent, they gave political rule to the minority Tutsis. This lead to bitterness and resentment on the part of the Hutu's because they had no say in their lives simply because they had a flatter nose.
• The Hutu's became upsett when the Tutsi took over their land.
• The tribes were placed together to migrate in with the Hutus because they shared the same language. They inner married. The Tutsis were considered superior because they were educated. The Hutus became upsett when the Tutsis took over their land and power.
• They had an ethnically-based hatred between themselves for a long time. The Tutsi were light-skinned, slender, with long noses while the Hutus were dark-skinned, short, and stocky.
