Republic of Rwanda, is a small landlocked country in the Great Lakes region of east-central Africa. It has a population of approximately 9 million people. It is bordered by Uganda, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Tanzania. It is comprised of fertile and hilly terrain. This explains the title "Land of a Thousand Hills," (French: Pays des Mille Collines /pei de mil kɔ.lin/) ("Igihugu cy'Imisozi Igihumbi" in Kinyarwanda.) Rwanda supports the densest human populations in continental Africa. The country is well known to the outside world for the infamous 1994 genocide that resulted in the deaths of as many as 1 million people in as few as only 100 days within the framework of a bloody civil war. Aside from the 1994 massacre, Rwanda has a long and tragic history of conflict, violence and serial genocide. Rwanda's dependence on subsistence agriculture, dense and increasing population, depleted soil fertility and uncertain climate make Rwanda a country where chronic malnutrition is widespread and poverty is endemic.
