Sad,

--- First, please get some kind of education in history so that you can have at least the minimum level of starting debate on Ethiopia history. Ethiopian history is ubiquitous thousands of years before Emperor Menelik II. Sadly, you willfully stuck with የቡርቃ ዝምታው or German missionaries who were on a mission in spreading falsehood in Africa, especially horn of Africa. Please also note, German so-called scientist was the first to introduce "Race" and its definition - whose name was Johann Friedrich Blumenbach. Now, the Black race is suffering from this sick man’s definition and profiling. You too is suffering from ተሰፋዬ ገብረ-እባብ poison sting and wicked German missionaries. Germans also created the concept of ethnicity (human-invented). And now most Oromo and Tigre are suffering from this disease, sadly.

---- According to your knowledge, Ethiopia is created when the Titanic ship was manufactured 111 years ago. You must be really really foolish to accept this. Your ተሰፋዬ ገብረ-እባብ book says Ethiopia is as old Titanic. One of the stupidities of OLF is why did they not even go as far back as at least 400 years to sophisticate their lie? This itself disproves your lie, Ethiopia was woven and made thousands of years ago - that is why we see Oromo eat Injera, dress in ሻማ, lookalike in facial feature as other Ethiopians, enriched their vocabularies, have similar house structure as others, etc. Abstract and physical cultures cannot evolve overnight, unlike the Titanic ship built in few years. For that matter, most of today's Oromo are mainly Amhara, Gurage, Sidama, etc originally.

Sad,

Emperor Menelik II did not create Ethiopia, he was born in a country more than 3000 years older than him. We know where you came from and where you received the fiction book. The question is, why did Emperor Menelik II defeat Italians, the number one manufacturers of guns in the world and owners of advanced weapons? If Menelik II defeated the maker and owner of advanced weapons, could not he, with empty hands, smacked the hell out of any chest-beating lawless non-state tax payers, while sitting their arse on sovereign land of one of the oldest nation on planet Earth. Please note, Ethiopia is one of the oldest few nations on planet Earth. You need to take serious 101 Ethiopian history from real schools, not from the Ze'Buriqaw Ze'mita school, under the ዋርካ tree :mrgreen:


Menelik did indeed, make the Ethiopian state that we have today. Prior to him, there were neighboring kingdoms/provinces warring with each other; there wasn't an unified govt for them/a centralized govt that administrated them all. Tewodros made major moves towards that, but perished prior to being able to finalize it-Menelik learned from his mistakes and from his good moves, and managed to manipulate the Europeans against each other, to get the firearms he desperately needed, and put the country/empire together as we know it. I'm talking contiguous history/territory, not off and on again history, eshi?
Ethiopia defeated Italy, mostly due to the firearms Menelik stockpiled for decades. The same Italians Ethiopia fought, armed him prior to that, when he was in competition with yohannes. Italy armed him to counter yohannes, the same way the british aided and appreciated yohannes for helping them against tewodros. The Russians/French/etc also armed Menelik and helped train his forces in the art of conquering and holding territory.
Ethiopia can be the oldest nation, if you want it to be (doesn't make it true); but what do we have to show for it today? It's not our people's fault, but the truth is, we have a lot of work to do. Our countries been caught in this perpetual cycle of rebellion, instability, man made famines, wars, being puppets of various ''super powers'' to the detriment of our own citizens, etc.
This pride and arrogance about our country is pointless, when we're poor. Once we develop Ethiopia and become a middle income nation, then sure, we can be a bit more proud then.

I can easily cite sources and history to substantiate my claims, Ethiopia as we know it today, was put together by Menelik, using firearms and aid he got from Europe; this is the truth whether you like it or not. The truth doesn't care about feelings or opinions.
Before Menelik, what there was, were warring provinces and competing warlords or leaders, but an unified country under one centralized govt? No, not at all.
As I said before, Tewodros made major moves towards making that a thing, but he perished prior to that, and the tigrayan warlord/emperor/etc, yohannes assisted in his downfall. the same way, menelik was armed by Italy to counter yohannes.
Yeah, I'm sure before those europeans invented ''race'' and ''ethnicity,'' that we were all holding hands, living peacefully and eating doro wat. Right?

The argument in regards to how oromo look isn't going to work, because we're all from the same race, the sudanese, the oromo, the amara, the afar, somali, etc; hence why we look similar.
Even groups who aren't known for inter-marrying, let's say amara and somali, or tigrayans and somalis, share similar looks; so no, you're not right on that one.
You're arguing from an emotional standpoint, hence why you're throwing in little insults and subliminals here and there, similar to the emotional sister selam, but the facts say otherwise.
