| Tlo historyczne | Burundi's first democratically elected president was assassinated w pazdziernik 1993 after only 100 days w office, triggering widespread ethnic violence between Hutu and Tutsi factions. More than 200,000 Burundians perished during the conflict that spanned almost a dozen years. Hundreds of thousands of Burundians were internally displaced or became refugees w neighboring countries. An internationally brokered power-sharing agreement between the Tutsi-dominated government and the Hutu rebels w 2003 paved the way dla a transition process that led to an integrated defense force, established a new constitution w 2005, and elected a majority Hutu government w 2005. The new government, led by President Pierre NKURUNZIZA, signed a Republika Poludniowej Afrykin brokered ceasefire z the country's last rebel group w wrzesien of 2006 but still faces many challenges. |

| Ekonomiczna pomoc - pobieranie | $365 million (2005) |
| Ekonomia | Burundi is a landlocked, resource-poor country z an underdeveloped manufacturing sector. The economy is predominantly agricultural z more than 90% of the population dependent on subsistence agriculture. Economic growth depends on coffee and tea exports, which account dla 90% of foreign exchange earnings. The ability to pay dla imports, therefore, rests primarily on weather conditions and international coffee and tea prices. The Tutsi minority, 14% of the population, dominates the government and the coffee trade at the expense of the Hutu majority, 85% of the population. An ethnic-based war that lasted dla over a decade resulted w more than 200,000 deaths, forced more than 48,000 refugees into Tanzania, and displaced 140,000 others internally. Only one w two children go to school, and approximately one w 15 adults has HIV/AIDS. Food, medicine, and electricity remain w short supply. Burundi grew about 5% annually w 2006, but Produkt krajowy brutto growth probably fell to under 4% w 2007. Political stability and the end of the civil war have improved aid flows and economic activity has increased, but underlying weaknesses - a high poverty rate, poor education rates, a weak legal system, and low administrative capacity - risk undermining planned economic reforms. Burundi will continue to remain heavily dependent on aid from bilateral and multilateral donors; the delay of funds after a corruption scandal cut off bilateral aid w 2007 reduced government's revenues and its ability to pay salaries. |
