Ambassadors Of The United States To Burundi
The part of Africa that is now Burundi and Rwanda was a feudal monarchy headed by a ''mwami'' (king) and a ''ganwa'', a feudal hierarchy of Tutsi nobles and gentry until 1890. In that year the Germans attacked the nation and attempted to subdue it with armed force. Eventually the Germans backed an attempted '' coup d’état'' against the king, Mwezi Gisabo. The ''coup'' was unsuccessful, but Gisabo was eventually forced to concede and agreed to German suzerainty. The Germans then helped him suppress the revolt.

The western kingdoms of Ruanda-Urundi were stripped from the old colonies and given to Britis ...
