Armenian Genocide Beginning on 24 April, 1915, the Government of the Ottoman Empire, dominated by the Young Turks, effected a policy of genocide in the form of systematic mass deportations and extermination of Armenians, lasting until 1923, and resulting in the death of 1.5 million people. The fact of the Armenian Genocide by the Ottoman government has been documented, recognized, and affirmed in the form of media and eyewitness reports, laws, resolutions, and statements by many states and international organizations. The complete catalogue of all documents categorizing the 1915 wholesale massacre of the Armenian population in Ottoman Empire as a premeditated and thoroughly executed act of genocide, is extensive.

Cambodia Under the Khmer Rouge from
1975 to 1979, between two and four million Cambodians were slaughtered
in a genocide essentially directed against anybody who disagreed with
the regime - "most of its victims were not selected as members
of racial, religious or ethnic groups." Photos: Videos: Studies & Articles: Resources & Links:

Rwanda In the neighbouring
countries of Rwanda and Burundi, the Hutu and the Tutsi tribes have
committed mass tribal killings since 1961. In 1972, the Tutsi-dominated
government of Burundi slaughtered up to 200 000 Hutus. A second wave
of "Great Killings" occured in Burundi in 1988. In 1994, the
world watched apathetically as the Hutus in Rwanda perpetrated a far
greater genocide against the Tutsis. Photos: Videos:

The League's desire for East Pakistan to be independent from West Pakistan incurred the wrath of the government in Islamabad. The resulting civil war became a war of attrition until India invaded East Pakistan and forced the West Pakistan Army to surrender. The long-sought transformation of East Pakistan into Bangladesh was achieved, but over the nine months of war, between one and three million Bengalis had been killed and ten million had been made refugees.
