The Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was formed by six republics including, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Slovenia. However on 25 June 1991 Slovenia and Croatia declared its independence and were soon followed by Macedonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Serbia and Montenegro continued together under the name of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Many problems arose as soon as the different republics succeeded as most states retained minorities from other nationalities. During the colonial period, the Belgian colonizers needed to control a greater area than they were able to handle in Rwanda. The Tutsi minority was easier to control than the entire area and as the Tutsi‟s were already in power at the moment, the Belgian colonizers used this to their advantage. At that moment the difference between Hutu‟s and Tutsi‟s was mainly an economic one. Hutu‟s were farmers and Tutsi‟s had control over the livestock which was worth more money. A Hutu could become a Tutsi and a Tutsi could become Hutu which would indeed indicate that it was more likely an economic difference rather than an ethnic difference.
