    Awassa is such a beautiful and friendly city. I stayed there for 2 weeks. Next time I will visit Amhara. I'm a veteran and spent a long time in the US military and this is my favorite country. This country has captured my heart. The people are so beautiful and agreeable. Addis Ababa is a fast growing city and I think Ethiopia has a great future! I have to mention the coffee here is by far the best coffee I've ever had and I'm a coffee snob. I hope one day to retire and live in this country.

      If you're into historical landmarks, you should definitely visit Gondar castle and Lalibela. I'm no expert on giving advice, but i wouldn't recommend retiring to this country after a 2 weeks visit, unless you have relatives there, or are married to an Ethiopian, or speak the language. Then there's the issue of ownership of property which is complex, unless you're just renting. That's just a few obstacles, but it's definitely worth visiting.

    with due respect the video is little biased against Cushitic groups. You show urban Habesha, but you show rural for somalis, Oromo and Afars. I do not want to be negative but I notice that. In addition, you mention the ancient history of habesha kingdoms , but you did not mention Oromo kingdoms like Garo/Jimma, Somali kingdom like Adal and Afar kindom like Aussa.

      @ Hassen the habeshas are cushites slightly admixed with semitic blood from south western arabia. Hence the similarities in phenotype. Its nonsense to blow this out of proportion. They (habeshas) are culturaly predominantly semitized but geneticaly are dominantly cushitic. Otherwise they would have to look presumably as arabs and they resemble more of their cushitic neighbours.

    Love to Ethiopia 🇪🇹 from Armenia 🇦🇲!
    Fun Fact: We are both the only Apostolic Christian nations. Edit: to clarify, I mean that the Amharic people in Ethiopia have the same church as us which you Ethiopians call “Ethiopian Orthodox, which is extremely similar to our Armenian Apostolic.”
    , we both have VERY similar Alphabet (search it up).
    And we both make same style coffee.
    Cheers to the Best country in Africa, From Yerevan 🇦🇲

      @abdi z With the exception of Oromo, all the other regions you mentioned have small pupulations, hence why the Christians make up the majority of the population. You can google that information yourself. But it doesn't really matter which religion is majority. Christianity and Islam are not that different from each other. Ethiopians of all religions have lived together for centuries without a lot of problems and that should be a source of pride.

      @Daniel Raya What's with all the hate? As long as they search for their heritage and identify with it, they are 100% Ethiopians. The word "ትውልደ ኢትዮጵያዊ" (Ethiopian descent) literally means that anyone who has an Ethiopian ancestor, wherever they may be born. You can't take away their genes. You should rather encourage children of the diaspora to look for and hold on to their roots because they are our ambassadors to the outside world.

    As a Somalia I went to Ethiopia last year 2019, it was my first time i been there..in Addis Ababa it was really nice place and i met friendly people..my trip has changed my perception about Ethiopia generally...as you know there have been many wars between Ethiopia and Somalia for centuries..i came to know that the problem was not really from the Ethiopian people but from the politicians who come to power which they try to pursue a fascist policies against their neighbouring Somalia.
    It was really different from what I thought...thanks to the people of Ethiopia i hope we will live in peace and have a mutual respect for each other.
    I believe if we would have been friends from the beginning we would have established a good partnership in many sectors mainly economic partnership and cultural integration where we share a long border and cultural similarities as well as our Cushitic background.
    Somalia would really offer Ethiopia a sea access for port and Maritime transportation for their economic backbone.
    Let’s just collaborate peacefully we really need each other than our differences.

      Back to the stick .. can you make that stick now? Let alone a THOUSAND years ago bytheway it's very tall it's not small ... and they transported it from a different area .. to where u see it ...
      so what method they use to cut that n transport it and use to stand it ???
      the Italians had stole one of this oblestic they had to break it 5 times to put in planes ..so it's big and resembles a skyscraper

    Story goes that Helios, god of the sun, let his mortal son drive his chariot to drag the sun across the sky for a laugh. He lost control because he was a silly mortal, and dragged the sun too close to the earth over Ethiopia and burned the skin of everyone in the land.

    Thank you for sharing this outstanding Video. I am so curious, you dictate more about the others regions but less about the largest Region and largest ethnic group, Oromo, i hope you engaged with one habesha who doesn't like to teach you more about Oromos and Oromia's.
    You can visit many Zoos than in any other regions and different wild animals, greenery paradise places, lakes, Beutiful Caves and other historical places.
    I have seen also you are misinformed that it is Oromia that has a greatest coffee producer in Ethiopia than any other regions, (East Oromia, Harar Coffee of Oromia is one of the most expensive and export coffee), Coffee grows almost everywhere in Oromia and same is true with other Agricultural products. You boldly mentioned about Khat that is only popular and highly produced in easten corridor of Oromia less than 1/4 of the region but ofcourse distributed over all the country even exported to Djibouti, Somalia, Kenya, UAE and others.
    By the way, Oromo has remarkable cultural heritage, most beutiful cultural clothes in Ethiopia and has history of more than 1000 years of Democratic power sharing system, Gada system that let's one guy on power for only 8 years that also considered by UNESCO, Thanks giving day, Erecha, one of untouchable heritage and others.
