Atlantis city was a fiction or an invention of Plato, so was Wurage ethnicity a pure fiction of Emperor H/Selassie: Both Considered Historically unreal.

Plato’s Atlantis is regarded as a fictional city invented to indirectly criticize the moral decline of Greek society. In Timaeus and Critias, Plato portrayed Atlantis as a society corrupted by greed, lies, deceit, dishonesty, and the abuse of power. Through the downfall of Atlantis, Plato warned Greece that any society which abandons truth, justice, and virtue for corruption and selfishness will eventually destroy itself. In reality, he used a completely fictional city that never existed, although people later came to believe it was real.

Just like the purely fictional city of Atlantis described by Plato, there is no single tribe that can truly be called Wurage, nor does any one of these groups individually constitute such a tribe. However, a collection of different tribes—despite lacking a common language or culture—were categorically designated as Wurage, mainly by Emperor Haile Selassie. These different tribes never shared a common consciousness of belonging to one tribe or descending from the same cultural and linguistic origin. The emperor attempted to create an artificial solidarity among multiple demographically small and linguistically distinct groups.

You give credit to the dimwit midget Haile who set out to destroy it.
Gurage existed forever, evem before Amharic was born as a creole of Geez and Agew in the Axumites forts of Amara Sayint. In 1200, Gurage established its Sultanate which resisted Amde Sion's crusadic expansion. It's plausible that this sultanate an earlier kingdom, a subject that requires gurther reading to be exactly what it was called. Gurage as a distinct and organized group predates Amara, which did not write its Bible in its language language before tge 1830s, before the reign of Cruel king Sahle Sellasie.
If you google for map of Northeast Africa, of course you can choose to input 'map of abyssinia in the 1600s, Jesuit Father Almeida's map will display. In the map, you can clearly see Gurage shown in its present location.
This is just to telly you that you could not be more erroneous in attributing Haile the Dimwit who killed his cousin Lij Iyasu the legit heir to the throne of his grandfather Menlick II, Haile the Midget who was tutored French language in Harar by the French gun smuggler and p*dophile.
No Haile the devil who dated a new girl every week and gave each one a car when he breaks up with them is rather the source of all evils Ethiopia and Gurage are experiencing to this day.

Wurage is simply a “phantom ethnicity” that merely exists on the paper list invented to put all else into a phantom category of “Wurage.” That is the fact.
