Amharanet and Oromummà Are Not Only National Identities, but Also Political Ideologies!

By Fayyis Oromia*

Interestingly, among all national identities in Ethiopia, both Amharanet and Oromummà have evolved beyond cultural or ethnic labels—they have become political ideologies. Until recently, Amaranet was camouflaged as Ethiopiawinet, and numerous crimes have been committed against the Oromo in particular, and other nations in general, under the pretext of defending or promoting Ethiopiawinet. Ethiopia—where Amharic dominates—is, in practice, Amapia. Cvnning Amhara elites know this fact well, which is why they endlessly chant about Ethiopiawinet. Thanks to the OLF, this mask is slowly being removed, prompting some Amhara elites to now explicitly advocate for the preservation of Amharanet‘s dominance while positioning Oromummà as their main enemy.

In reality, if Ethiopia is to survive, it must exist either as Amapia (Amharic-dominated geofederation) or as Oropia (Oromic-led geofederation). The only way to avoid this binary outcome is to realize the vision of confederalists: a union of relatively autonomous regions like Amaria, Oromia, and other national entities.

Who learns afan galla in Ethiopia?

All tribes intercommunicate using Amharic which is Lingua Franca of Ethiopia

Abiy Ahmed speaks 90% of the time in Amharic making it the language of the king "Lisane Negus" since 1270

I've seen many lives on TikTok where gallas speak to other gallas in Amharic. Who's forcing them? Minnnnlikkk kkkkkk

The primary reason why the Fànnô movement has not been as successful as the Qérrô revolution is its failure to gain substantial Oromo support. This failure stems from its framing of Onegawinet, the “Gàllà migration,” and Oromummà as enemies. Such a flawed ideology costed Fànnô dearly. How can any rational mind label Onegawinet (the symbol of Oromo liberation), the “Gàllà migration” (a derogatory myth used to demean the Oromo), and Oromummà (the core identity of the nation) as threats—yet expect support from the Oromo?
