How much do you know about Rwanda?

Rwanda is a small country in Africa with many green hills, so people call it the land of a thousand hills. It is growing very fast and has become one of the most successful places in Africa. Even though it is not big, more than 14 million people live there, and it is home to a lot of rare mountain gorillas that you can’t find in many other places.

Rwanda also has more women in government than most countries, with over half of the seats in parliament held by women. This quiz will see how well you know its nature, people, and amazing changes.
