Why she might be annoying:

    Her death was noticed more than other victims of the Rwandan genocide because of her royal status.
    Her murder marked the beginning of one of the most notorious genocides in history.

Why she might not be annoying:

    A group of soldiers picked her up at her house, took her behind the National Museum, and shot her.
    She was considered a living symbol for the Tutsis.
    The Monarchy came to an end when her husband died in 1959.
