Ruanda-Urundi
Ruanda-Urundi was a part of German East Africa under Belgian military occupation from 1916 to 1924. It was then a League of Nations class B mandate of Belgium from 1924 to 1945.
It transitioned to a United Nations trust territory (still Belgian) from 1945 until 1962, when it became the independent states of Rwanda and Burundi.
History
The independent Kingdoms of Rwanda and Burundi were annexed by Germany along with the other states of the Great Lakes region in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Attached to German East Africa, the region had only a minimal German presence.
During the East African Campaign in World War I, the area was conquered by forces from the Belgian Congo in 1916.
League of Nations mandate
The Treaty of Versailles divided German East Africa with the vast majority known as Tanganyika going to Great Britain. The westernmost portion, which was formally referred to as the Belgian Occupied East African Territories, went to Belgium. In 1924, as the League of Nations issued a formal mandate that granted Belgium full control over the area, the area officially became Ruanda-Urundi.

listen); Kinyarwanda: U Rwanda [u.ɾɡwanda]), officially the Republic of Rwanda (Kinyarwanda: Repubulika y'u Rwanda; French: République du Rwanda), is a sovereign state in central and east Africa and one of the smallest countries on the African mainland. Located a few degrees south of the Equator, Rwanda is bordered by Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Burundi
Coordinates: 3°30′S 30°00′E / 3.500°S 30.000°E / -3.500; 30.000
Burundi (/bəˈrʊndᵻ/ or /bəˈrʌndi/), officially the Republic of Burundi (Kirundi: Republika y'Uburundi,[buˈɾundi]; French: République du Burundi, [buʁundi] or [byʁyndi]), is a landlocked country in the African Great Lakes region of East Africa, bordered by Rwanda to the north, Tanzania to the east and south, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west. It is considered part of Central Africa. Burundi's capital is Bujumbura. The southwestern border is adjacent to Lake Tanganyika.
The Twa, Hutu and Tutsi peoples have lived in Burundi for at least five hundred years. For more than 200 years, Burundi was an independent kingdom. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Germany colonized the region. After the First World War and Germany's defeat, it ceded the territory to Belgium. The Belgians ruled Burundi and Rwanda as a European colony known as Ruanda-Urundi. Their intervention exacerbated social differences between the Tutsi and Hutu, and contributed to political unrest in the region. Burundi gained independence in 1962 and initially had a monarchy, but a series of assassinations, coups, and a general climate of regional instability culminated in the establishment of a republic and one-party state in 1966. Bouts of ethnic cleansing and ultimately two civil wars and genocides during the 1970s and again in the 1990s left the country undeveloped and its population as one of the world's poorest. 2015 witnessed large-scale political strife as President Pierre Nkurunziza opted to run for a third term in office, a coup attempt failed and the country's parliamentary and presidential elections were broadly criticized by members of the international community.

Burundi and Rwanda, or...officially the Republic of Burundi and the Republic of Rwanda
Two small, bordering, landlocked countries in East Africa. Both in the African Great Lakes region. Burundi borders Lake Tanganyika, the second-largest and second-oldest freshwater lake in the world. And Rwanda borders Lake Kivu, a lake that is one of three known lakes to go through limnic eruptions. A limnic eruption is a rare type of natural disaster in which deep lake waters burst into a gas cloud that can kill any living creature near the lake. So if that ever happens, Rwanda would be very vulnerable.
Tensions have been high between the two for a few years now. However, even though the current leaders of both have been talking trash, the two countries have a lot in common.
For starters, they used to be part of the same kingdom. Ruanda-Urundi, which was once part of German East Africa, a territory ruled by Belgium between 1922 and 1962.

Burundi and Rwanda, or...officially the Republic of Burundi and the Republic of Rwanda
Two small, bordering, landlocked countries in East Africa. Both in the African Great Lakes region. Burundi borders Lake Tanganyika, the second-largest and second-oldest freshwater lake in the world. And Rwanda borders Lake Kivu, a lake that is one of three known lakes to go through limnic eruptions. A limnic eruption is a rare type of natural disaster in which deep lake waters burst into a gas cloud that can kill any living creature near the lake. So if that ever happens, Rwanda would be very vulnerable.
Tensions have been high between the two for a few years now. However, even though the current leaders of both have been talking trash, the two countries have a lot in common.
For starters, they used to be part of the same kingdom. Ruanda-Urundi, which was once part of German East Africa, a territory ruled by Belgium between 1922 and 1962.

Ruanda-Urundi
Ruanda-Urundi was a part of German East Africa under Belgian military occupation from 1916 to 1924. It was then a League of Nations class B mandate of Belgium from 1924 to 1945.
It transitioned to a United Nations trust territory (still Belgian) from 1945 until 1962, when it became the independent states of Rwanda and Burundi.
History
The independent Kingdoms of Rwanda and Burundi were annexed by Germany along with the other states of the Great Lakes region in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Attached to German East Africa, the region had only a minimal German presence.
During the East African Campaign in World War I, the area was conquered by forces from the Belgian Congo in 1916.
League of Nations mandate
The Treaty of Versailles divided German East Africa with the vast majority known as Tanganyika going to Great Britain. The westernmost portion, which was formally referred to as the Belgian Occupied East African Territories, went to Belgium. In 1924, as the League of Nations issued a formal mandate that granted Belgium full control over the area, the area officially became Ruanda-Urundi.
