Rwanda Lot

Rwanda is a landlocked East African country known for its rolling hills, volcanic highlands, and temperate tropical climate shaped by elevation. Its people share Kinyarwanda as a common language, alongside English, French, and Swahili as official languages. A republic independent since 1962, Rwanda’s modern history includes the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi and subsequent efforts toward reconstruction and reconciliation. Notable figures include author Scholastique Mukasonga, whose writing explores memory, displacement, and Rwandan cultural identity.
