Gaining the support of high church officials, a successful brigand from the northwestern frontier, Kassa Haylu, had himself crowned Emperor Theodore II in 1855, after having defeated a number of petty feudal rulers who controlled various sections of the country. Later, when Theodore imprisoned some British officials for conspiring against him, the British dispatched an expeditionary force to Ethiopia, and the emperor committed suicide in 1868 rather than be taken prisoner. After a four-year struggle for the throne by various claimants, Dejaz Kassai, governor of the province of Tigray, succeeded, with British aid, in being crowned Johannes IV, emperor of Ethiopia. In the 1870s the main external enemy of the empire, which was little more than a collection of semi-independent states, was Egypt. In 1875 the Egyptian khedive Ismail Pasha extended Egyptian protection to the Muslim ruler of Harer and launched an attack on Ethiopia from both the north and the east. Johannes successfully halted the Egyptian invasion, but the continued occupation by Egypt of the Red Sea and Somali ports severely curtailed the supply of arms and other goods to Ethiopia. Johannes was killed defending his western frontier against the Sudanese in 1889. He was succeeded by Menelik II, who established a new capital at Addis Ababa and succeeded in uniting the provinces of Tigray and Amhara with Shewa.

    Ethiopia - History
    Northern Abyssinia corresponds to ancient Ethiopia, which was long the official name of the country, Abyssinia being a Portuguese form of the Abrabian Habesch, signifying "mixture." Modern Ethiopia is the product of many millennia of interaction among peoples in and around the Ethiopian highlands region. From the earliest times, these groups combined to produce a culture that at any given time differed markedly from that of surrounding peoples. The evolution of this early "Ethiopian" culture was driven by a variety of ethnic, linguistic, and religious groups. One of the most significant influences on the formation and evolution of culture in northern Ethiopia consisted of migrants from Southwest Arabia. They arrived during the first millennium B.C. and brought Semitic speech, writing, and a distinctive stone-building tradition to northern Ethiopia. They seem to have contributed directly to the rise of the Axumite kingdom, a trading state that prospered in the first centuries of the Christian era and that united the shores of the southern Red Sea commercially and at times politically. It was an Axumite king who accepted Christianity in the mid-fourth century, a religion that the Axumites bequeathed to their successors along with their concept of an empire-state under centralized rulership.

    History
    Ethiopia Table of Contents Starting about the mid-sixteenth century, the Oromo people, migrating from the southwest, gradually forced their way into the kingdom, most often by warfare. The Oromo, who eventually constituted about 40 percent of Ethiopia's population, possessed their own culture, religion, and political institutions. As the largest national group in Ethiopia, the Oromo significantly influenced the course of the country's history by becoming part of the royal family and the nobility and by joining the army or the imperial government. During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, religious and regional rivalries gradually weakened the imperial state until it was little more than a collection of independent and competing fiefdoms. Ethiopia's modern period (1855 to the present)represented by the reigns of Tewodros II, Yohannis IV, Menelik II, Zawditu, and Haile Selassie I; by the Marxist regime of Mengistu Haile Mariam; and, since mid-1991, by the Transitional Government of Ethiopia under Meles Zenawihas been been characterized by nation-building as well as by warfare. Tewodros II started the process of recreating a cohesive Ethiopian state by incorporating Shewa into his empire and by suppressing revolts in the country's other provinces. Yohannis IV battled to keep Ethiopia free from foreign domination and to retard the growing power of the Shewan king, Menelik. Eventually, Menelik became emperor and used military force to more than double Ethiopia's size. He also defeated an Italian invasion force that sought to colonize the country.

SHOPPING In the minds of many, Ethiopia is restricted to the images of the devastating famine of the 1980’s, marathon athletes, and the last monarch – Emperor Haile Sellassie (also know as Ras Tafari). However, behind these images lies a long, rich and utterly complicated history that dates back to biblical times. Ethiopia is one of the oldest civilizations in the world. We have set out in this section to provide a brief history of the evolution of modern Ethiopia. In the near future, this section will be expanded to include biographies of important figures in Ethiopian history, focused sections such as ‘Women in History’, and provide more in-depth detail on important eras summarized in the overview below.

    Ethiopian history and culture
    The history of Ethiopia lies mostly in its myriad of historical sites and it would be impossible to give any brief overview that would make sense here. There is information and history covering civilisations dating back to 4000 BC, the great empire of Axum, the dynasty of rulers that include the Queen of Sheba up to the Solomonic Dynasty founded by Menelik, lasting until 1974 when the 237th Solomonic monarch, His Emperor Haile Selassie, was overthrown. Archaeologically, there are sites of rock carvings and paintings that date back to 3000 BC. Culturally, the people of Ethiopia have strong ethnic links, traditions and practices that date back to Nubian times (Sudan was formerly known as Nubia). The Nile Valley civilisations are fascinating subjects within themselves and include cultures from the west and north east of Ethiopia. Although not strictly about all of Ethiopia, Anthony T Browder’s book, ‘ Nile Valley Contributions to Civilizations ’ is a great book that describes the cultures and peoples that occupied Kemet (Egypt), Nubia (Sudan) and Ta-Seti (covering half of Ethiopia), their history, relationships and origins.

    Modern Ethiopia is the product of many millennia of interaction among peoples in and around the Ethiopian highlands region. From the earliest times, these groups combined to produce a culture that at any given time differed markedly from that of surrounding peoples. The evolution of this early "Ethiopian" culture was driven by a mixture of ethnic, linguistic, and religious groups. One of the most remarkable determines on the formation and evolution of culture in northern Ethiopia consisted of migrants from Southwest Arabia. They arrived during the first millennium B.C. and brought Semitic speech, writing, and a typical stone-building tradition to northern Ethiopia.

It was an Aksumite king who accepted Christianity in the mid-fourth century, a religion that the Aksumites bequeathed to their successors along with their concept of an empire-state under centralized rulership. Misery mounted throughout Ethiopia in the 1980s. Recurrent drought and famine, made worse in the north by virtual civil war, took an enormous human toll, necessitating the infusion of massive amounts of international humanitarian aid. The insurgencies in Eritrea, Tigray, and other regions intensified until by the late 1980s they threatened the stability of the regime. Drought, economic mismanagement, and the financial burdens of war ravaged the economy. At the same time, democratic reform in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union threatened to isolate the revolutionary government politically, militarily, and economically from its allies.
