"Shewa was the residence of regional kings from the mid-10th century to the end of the 14th century. In 1528 Shewa was overrun by Muslim invaders from the state of Adal to the east, and its ancient cities were destroyed. For over a century afterward, Shewa was penetrated by the Oromo people from the south, who moved into the political vacuum left in the region and established themselves in farming communities as far north as the Blue Nile valley. In 1856 Shewa was incorporated into the Ethiopian empire by the emperor Tewodros (Theodore) II, but Menilek II regained his kingdom of Shewa and in 1886 chose the site for Addis Ababa, his future capital. Building began at once, and, when Menilek became emperor of the whole country in 1889, Addis Ababa became the capital of Ethiopia."

I know your limited knowledge of history and your evil intents towards the Ethiopian state. However, we never fail to educate you and your kinds. History will soon be the judge !!

Wendime Noble,

You Amharas please stop re-writing history as it suits you. Historically Shoa was under the kingdom of Yifat Sultanate, Shoa was predominantly 100% Muslim before being savagely attacked by Amde Tsion of Tigray king in the 13th century.

Many moved to the east and found the walled city of Harar and became in what we know them today, Adere...others moved to Wollo and became Argoba, and many assimilated into Guraghe.

Shoa had never been Amhara or Christian until early the 19th century. You better believe me.. your debteras telling you what the one-time kingmaker Tewahdo church tells them to tell you which is not true.
