Tracing back the outrage of Silte against Gurage

Post by Dama » 15 Jul 2026, 20:41

I never had a full context of why Silte was outraged to live under one Gurage Zone government with the rest of Gurages.
I heard and read that they claimed they were 99% Muslim but this could not be the truth because Welene Gurage is 99% Muslim, 7bet and Mesqan Gurage are Muslim majorities. Muslim Gurages are only minority in half-Gurage/half-Amara dibliq Kistane.

So what's the real reason?

If you remember the debates, the difference of identities, discriminations, alienations actual or envisioned, the histories and origins Silte might have used as pretext forming its secessionist narratives that made it special, different from Gurage, please post them for the review of that historical event of its exist from Gurage
