Introduction to the unique and mellow coffee flavor and taste characteristics of Ethiopia's Xida Motede Manor.

Monlinique I reigned in 975 BC. The Kingdom of Nubia was established in the 8th century BC.

From the 1st century to 976 AD, the Ethiopian Empire, also known as the Kingdom of Aksum, was established in Aksum in the north. Christianity was introduced into Ethiopia in the 4th and 5th century. From the 12th century to 1270, the Zagvi dynasty was established.

In 1270, the Abyssinian Empire was established. [3]

The early invasion period of western colonialism

Portugal and the Ottoman Empire invaded one after another in the 16th century. British troops invaded Ethiopia in 1867 and Sudanese Mahdi troops invaded in 1887.

In 1889, Mennelik II became emperor, unified the country, established the capital Addis Ababa, and established the territory of modern Ethiopia. In 1890, Italy invaded, squeezed out British power and declared Ethiopia a "sanctuary". In 1896, Menlinique II led the army to defeat the Italian army in Adua and was forced to recognize the independence of Ethiopia. [1]

During the reign of Emperor Selassie

Haier Selassie was made regent in 1916 and became king in 1928. On November 2, 1930, he was crowned Emperor Haier Selassie I. In 1936, Italy invaded again, occupied Addis Ababa, conquered Ethiopia, and Selassie went into exile in London. The allies defeated Italy in 1941 and Selassie I returned home on May 5 of the same year. He stepped down after a domestic coup in 1974. [3]

During the period of military rule

In September 1974, a group of young and strong officers formed the "Coordination Committee of the Army, Police and Local Forces" (that is, DERGUE, meaning SHADOW, and later generally referred to the junta and Mengistu regime) to launch a military coup, overthrew the Haier Selassie government, and announced the end of monarchy and the establishment of a "interim junta." In November, the "interim military government" was changed to "interim military Administrative Council". In December, the interim military Administrative Council declared Ethiopia a "socialist country", nationalizing land, financial and financial institutions and industry.
