Bujumbura is the capital and largest city in the Republic of Burundi, which is known as Burundi. It was inhabited by the Hutu, Tutsi, and Twa for more than 500 years, was called German East Africa until World War I, after which it became part of the Belgian Congo region which was known as Ruanda-Urundi, and which continued as a monarchy until after World War II. In 1959, Burundi and Rwanda were officially separated by the Belgian government, and a civil war erupted shortly after that.
