Rwanda was made up of three tribes. These tribes included the Tutsis, the Hutus and the Twa. Before the genocide, the Hutus were the majority and could be recognized by their shorter stature, darker skin and broad noses. Tutsis were the minority and were distinguished by tallness, light skin and narrow noses. Twas were a forest dwelling tribe of people known for being small and reclusive.
