Amara’s Goal: Amapia or Amaria vs Oromo’s Vision: Oromia or Oropia!

Amara’s Goal: Amapia or Amaria vs Oromo’s Vision: Oromia or Oropia!

Interestingly, nowadays, all Amara elites, starting from Ato Andargachew Tsige, are taking off their Ethiopiawinet mask and struggling overtly to either maintain Amapia (Amaranet dominated Ethiopia) or forge Amaria including the previous provinces of Gondar, Gojjam, Wallo and Shoa with Addisaba as capital city. They are now sensing that Dr. Abiy’s Ethiopia is slowly, but surely being transformed to Oropia (Oromumma led Ethiopia). They want to hinder this transformation at any cost. The question yet to be answered is whether Amara and Oromo elites can have a middle compromise solution, i.e fostering rainbow Ethiopia, in which all nations in the country can have their legitimate share culturally, economically and politically. That meanse, in all areas of Ethiopian life at least 40% Oromo, 20% Agaw, 10% Amara, 6% Somali, 5% Tegaru, 4% Sidama, 3% Garage… etc.

It is clear that Oromo’s vision is summarized as Oromia and/or Oropia. That means, we either achieved an independent Oromia without Oropia (Oromo led Ethiopia) or foster Oromia within Oropia (genuine multinational federation) or opt for Oropia without Oromia (geo-federation in Oromo terms). According to Dr. Leenco Lataa, Amhara elites’ politics is led by the plan for upward [deleted] of Ethiopia in to Amhatigna speaking country. This process is going on since 1270 of Yekuno Amlak’s rule. All nations in the empire are still used as row material to be processed and transformed into a finished good of Amharigna speakers. It is an effective method of Amharinization. In this way, about 90% of Agaws, 40% of Oromos and many other nations lost their priori identity and became Amhara. In such way, Amharanet and Amharigna could dominate Ethiopia and the whole country is considered as de facto Amharia.

Oromo elites tried to resist this process and envisioned to foster independent republic of Oromia. They planned to liberate the rest Afaan Oromo speaking region, call it Oromia and with that excluded the already Amharanized Oromo regions in north Shoa, east Wallo, south Gojjam as well as parts of Gondar and Tigrai. Thus, their move is considered to be a downward [deleted]. Ethnic federation is considered as a compromise solution balancing these two phaenomena. I would like to suggest a role exchange of Amhara and Oromo elites. The Oromo better opt for upward [deleted] by promoting Afaan Oromo to its legitimate primary position as federal working language. Then, slowly but surely, re-Oromization of the whole country can take place and Ethiopia will be transformed to Oropia (Great Oromia) by erasing Great Amharia. This Oropia is definately more beneficial than the smaller Oromia. Of course, then, Amhara elites will be compelled to try the downward [deleted] mechanism to resist this Oromo’s upward process, so that they will start to fight for an independent Amharia (Amhara Land). As they just objected the dismantling of the regional special forces, they will be the main advocators of ethnic federation or separation in the near future.
