Coup of Gitarama
1961 abolition of the monarchy in Rwanda
In the coup of Gitarama during the Rwandan Revolution, the monarchy in Rwanda, then a part of the Belgian mandate of Ruanda-Urundi, was abolished and replaced with a republican political system. The traditional monarchy was led by a Mwami (king), who ruled through an administration of chiefs and subchiefs in the context of a feudal system of patron-client relations based on tribute.
