How did amharas lose control of ethiopia?
>>18623687Israel of the horn is what they are
>>18623687Ethiopian Civil War. The Derg were Amharas, like the monarchy before them, but they lost to a multi-ethnic coalition of rebels dominated by the Tigrayans.This only lasted until 2018 though, the current government is frankly Amhara supremacist
>>18624282current gov is oromo not amhara
Oromos are based for kicking out the Ethio-Semites
what's the difference between all these ethnic groups?
>>18624282>the current government is frankly Amhara supremacistIt'a cracking down on Amhara.>>18625257It's cracking down on Oromos even more. Abiy is also Oromo. To answer both of you Abiy is basically trying to sanitize and pimp out Ethiopia by glossing it up to investors while tearing down Ethiopia's cultural, religious and historical background.
>>18625900so kinda like saudi arabia?
>>18625914If Saudi Arabia were an ethnic mess borne out of centuries of conflict and migrations then yes.
>>18625878they are more similar to their neighboring countries than each other creating a mess, amhara being the former imperial core, and the rest being conquered before the communist revolution unseated their empire, on the south west the nuers, anuaks, bench and bertas are ethnically south sudanese basically, west with gumuz and shinashas is sudanese, north in tigray is most ethnically similar to eritrea, afar is with djibouti, somalis with somalia, and oromos with their breatheren and origin point in kenya
