The titles are surely ignorant and even racist - but what defeated Italy in Adwa was not a standing army, but the mobilization of the whole country. Ethiopia's standing army in 1942 was small, but in the 1950's it grew and became the biggest in Africa
Interesting that westerners call the Ethiopian Christian fighters ‘savage’. And that in war-torn 1942. While Abessynia was still revovering from a Christian Italian ‘savage’ occupation.
False, majority fought the Italians. The bandas were numbered and known as "city dwellers" or cowards by the fighters. The grand father of Meles Zenawi, Shumbash Asres was one and unique in his total obedience to his Italian Masters. But almost all Ethiopians including Eritreans revolted the Italian aggression of Abyssinians.
@@MesfinJ I know you would like to believe it but it is important to face up to the truth. There were only about 25 000 Arbegnoch fighting with the Allies and their quality as fighting men was doubtful. They showed loyalty to no-one and would kill anyone in their way - even their benefactors, but of course they were portrayed in the media of the time to be brave heroes. The propaganda of the war years created the images that Ethiopians cling to, perpetuated by successive governments. By comparison, South Africans in the conflict numbered more than 27 000, and this small army liberated Addis Ababa on April 6, 1941. They only lost 150 but killed or captured over 50 000 Italian (mostly colonial) troops.

The Ethiopians sure love wearing white ! As written in the book of Revelations 19:8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints !
Raymond N Kamugisha The fabric is different. They wear a thicker terry cloth in the highlands of Ethiopia because it’s relatively cool compared to Saharan East Africa.
@@raymondnkamugisha8887 Ethiopian is different from theirs ... those u mentioned dress white like Arabs.. inspired by islam n z arabs.. While Ethiopian traditional cloth is different ..made in ethiopia and has been wore for many years 😊
Really, white south African gave a damn about blacks liberty at that time. If so, why they kept black south African under apartheid for so long. This tells your story is wrong. We Ethiopians kept and secure our freedom by God's grace and by our blood. Get your facts straight liar.
Can you lot leave us alone for once. Why do you feel that it’s your job to diminish any black related achievements as much as possible. You know you had an aim and that was to say “whites get the credit”. It is childish, don’t even attempt an explanation. It’s pure drivel.

Fun Fact: Addis Ababa was already Abandoned by the retreating Italians and Ethiopian Forces actually reached the city first, but the British feared that the Ethiopian Forces would carry out revenge attacks against the Italian Civilians living their at the time, so they convinced Halie Selassie to not enter the city until the British can enter there "first" (not really at this point), to maintain law and order (as if Africans cant do it themselves, but sure, whatever), but what ended up happening is mostly British/South African White Soldiers committing Sexual Aggression against some White Italian Women.
Yes, it is true that the the British feared acts of barbarism against the Italian civilians and asked for the Italian colonial police to stay on and maintain law and order. The rest you have all wrong and proves your anti-white racist notions. Addis Ababa was liberated on 6th April 1941 while Haile Selassie was still in exile (I think in London) and he only returned to Addis on May 5th 1941 after security was ensured. B.t.w. the South Africans entered the capital first - there is a Pathe video on RUclips which shows that.There is no proof of "British/South African White Soldiers committing Sexual Aggression against some White Italian Women. " The "Ethiopian Forces" you speak of were nothing more than warlords and bandits and were responsible for many atrocities committed against Italian civilians as well as there own people. There were in fact more Ethiopians and /or Abyssinians fighting on the side of the Italians than against them. Of course your history doesn't say that - all white washed to make them appear as heroes. Your history also does not admit that slavery was only finally abolished after the occupation by Commonwealth forces - you have White South African to thank for that!
