The Kingdom of Rwanda acquired much of its territory relatively late in history, let alone having any basis to claim Eastern Congo, another Bantu territory.
The Hutu Kingdom of Bugesera once conquered its territory was divided between Rwanda and Burundi around the 18th century.
The Kingdom of Nduga, shown in yellow on historical maps, was conquered by Rwanda in the 17th century.
The persistent habit of Tutsi supremacists claiming Bantu land risks provoking a historical reckoning, one in which the Hutu may eventually demand the return of lands taken by the Rwandan kingdom and seek to reclaim their former kingdoms.
Tutsi supremacists should abandon this rigidity. Do they forget so quickly that they had no original homeland of their own, that they were integrated into existing societies, and that their rise involved wars of conquest, genocides, destruction, and the seizure of Hutu kingdoms?
They always claim that Hutu and Tutsi form a new tribe called Banyarwanda, that speaking the same language and having the same culture, to hide the true history.
This isn't bad, but when it's tools for land grabbing and oppression, this is extremely evil.
