Detailed explanation-1: -Expert-Verified Answer. One way in which the Armenians in the Ottoman Empitre (1915) and the Tutsis in Rwanda (1994) are similar is that both groups (2) suffered human rights violations. The Armenian Genocide took place in what is now modern-day Turkey where half the Armenian population was killed and deported.
Detailed explanation-2: -Violations of the rights to a fair trial, freedom of expression and privacy continued, alongside enforced disappearances, allegations of torture and excessive use of force. People suspected of genocide were prosecuted and convicted.
Detailed explanation-3: -Armenians originally had been thought of as a loyal millet, but after 1878 the Armenians became an instrument of certain foreign powers to intervene in the Ottoman regime and internal policy-the Ottomans began to see them as a threat.
Detailed explanation-4: -During the 1994 genocide, Rwandan women were subjected to sexual violence on a massive scale, perpetrated by members of the infamous Hutu militia groups known as the Interahamwe, by other civilians, and by soldiers of the Rwandan Armed Forces (Forces Armées Rwandaises, FAR), including the Presidential Guard.
Detailed explanation-5: -Between 1893 and 1915 Ottoman Armenians in eastern Anatolia rebelled against their government–the Ottoman government–and joined Armenian revolutionary groups, such as the notorious Dashnaks and Hunchaks. They armed themselves and spearheaded a massive Russian invasion of eastern Anatolia.
