By the end of the Rwandan Genocide, over 800,000 estimated people had been killed (mainly men). Today, adult males make up about 20% of the population. Many families' adult figures are women.
Nearly 100,000 estimated children were left orphaned after the genocide. Most of them are scattered throughout 42,000 households where the head of the house could be 9-10 years old.
The U.N. established the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda. Nearly 120,000 Rwandan people were jailed due to suspicions of participation in the genocide.
