You will prepare and submit a term paper on What Caused The Ethnic Turmoil in Rwanda. Your paper should be a minimum of 250 words in length. What could have gone wrong to make them hate each other so much as to result in a genocide that almost destroyed the country? There are a number of reasons that can be given for the ethnic turmoil that made the Hutu and Tutsi in Rwanda turn against each other.

Hutu and Tutsi practiced different economic activities. The Hutus were farmers while the Tutsis were herders. Before the mid-nineteenth century, both communities had plenty of land for farming and grazing, however, the land became scarce as the population of the Rwandese increased (7). At one time, the country was the most densely populated in the whole of Africa. This overpopulation put a strain on the scarce land resources available in the country. The two communities started competing for the little land, with Tutsi wanting it for herding while the Hutus wanted to use it to grow crops. This competition escalated to tribal tensions which resulted in the 1994 genocide (9).

Another reason given for the genocide was the way in which the Tutsi aristocracy treated the Hutu. This became a problem when the country’s Belgian colonizers treated the Tutsis with favoritism making the Hutus more like second class citizens (14). However, at the time of independence, the Belgians reversed their favoritism and now started supporting the Hutus in administration positions. This caused a lot of tensions between the two communities (15). The tensions were escalated by economic turmoil and food shortages in the early 90s. In April 1994, the Rwandese president died after his plane was shot down and this was the catalyst that prompted the unfortunate bloodbath that left hundreds of thousands dead (17).

Instructions

Comparing State Policies on Sexually Transmitted Diseases

The purpose of the final project is to engage you in writing a health policy analysis. There are five steps in the health policy analysis process.

Using South University Online Library or the Internet, research on a sexually transmitted disease (STD) policy of the state you reside in. Once you identify an STD policy from the state you reside in, visit your state health department or browse your state’s website and search for the STD policy you selected.

Next, write a research paper describing this public health policy analysis and background. The final paper should include the following:

  • A title page
  • An introduction of policy analysis in two to three paragraphs discussing the following:
    • Overview
    • Purpose
  • A body
    • Health policy background (one page):
      • The state’s role in the policy-making process
      • The purpose of public health policy
    • Public health policy analysis five-step process discussing the following:
      • A problem statement (in the form of a question) (two paragraphs)
      • Background of a policy analysis provides factual information needed to understand the problem. Include economic issues of policy as well as regulatory policy (two pages).
      • The landscape section of a policy analysis identifies key stakeholders and describes the factors that are needed to analyze the problem. Write the landscape section on policy analysis. Include balance of patient rights versus protecting the population. Include any influence from government insurance programs. Your response should be of at least three pages
      • Options (three or four) to address the policy problem. Your response should be of at least three pages.
      • Recommendations section should clearly identify three options. Which of the three options is favored and why is it is preferred over the other ones. Your response should be of at least one page.
  • A conclusion
    • Your conclusion (one page) should address the following main points:
      • Your recommendation and the reasoning behind it.
      • Summarize your findings.
      • Explain the barriers to implementing policy analysis process and how they could be overcome.

Your paper should be a minimum of 12- to 13-pages in a Microsoft Word document. You need a minimum of six scholarly sources for both in-text citations and citations on the reference page.

Submission Details:

  • Support your responses with reasoning and examples.
  • Cite any sources in APA format.

A gas becomes non-ideal under high pressure conditions.

At high pressure conditions, the molecules of gas come very close to each other, such that there is a lack of space between them. Due to such proximity, the individual volume of the particles does not remain negligible as compared to the volume of the gas, but becomes appreciable. And, hence when the volume is contracted further, as the pressure increases, but this decrease of volume does not remain proportional to the increase in pressure, as stated by the Boyle’s law

Another factor which comes in significance at higher pressure conditions is the force of attraction among the individual particles of gas. This factor is negligible at lower pressures and hence a gas behaves ideally. At such higher pressures, the force of attraction of the particles bring the particles closer, and hence lead to a further decrease in volume. The reduction in the Kinetic Energy of particles, due to a lack of space at higher pressure, also aids in bringing the particles of a gas closer.

When the temperature is reduced to near the condensation point of the gas does this have an impact?
