Ethiopia<\/a>\u00a0is one of the oldest countries in\u00a0Africa; the emergence of Ethiopian civilization dates back thousands of years. Abyssinia or rather “Ze Etiyopia” was ruled by the Semitic Abyssinians (Habesha) composed mainly of the\u00a0Amhara<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Tigray<\/a>, the Cushitic\u00a0Agaw. In the Eastern escarpment of the Ethiopian highlands and more so the lowlands was the home of the Arab-descended\u00a0Harari\u00a0that founded Sultanates such as Ifat and Adal and the\u00a0Afars. In the central and south were found the ancient\u00a0Sidama\u00a0and Semitic\u00a0Gurage, among others.<\/span><\/p>

One of the first kingdoms to rise to power in the territory was the kingdom of\u00a0D’mt\u00a0in the 10th century BC, which established its capital at\u00a0Yeha. In the first century AD the Aksumite Kingdom rose to power in the modern\u00a0Tigray Region\u00a0with its capital at\u00a0Aksum\u00a0and grew into a major power on the\u00a0Red Sea, subjugating\u00a0South Arabia\u00a0and\u00a0Meroe\u00a0and its surrounding areas. In the early fourth century, during the reign of\u00a0Ezana,\u00a0Christianity\u00a0was declared the state religion. Ezana’s reign is also when the Aksumites first identified themselves as “Ethiopians”, and not long after,\u00a0Philostorgius\u00a0became the first foreign author to call the Aksumites Ethiopians.\u00a0The Aksumite empire fell into decline with the rise of\u00a0Islam\u00a0in the Arabian peninsula, which slowly shifted trade away from the Christian Aksum.[citation needed<\/i>]\u00a0It eventually became isolated, its economy slumped and Aksum’s commercial domination of the region ended. The Aksumites gave way to the\u00a0Zagwe dynasty, who established a new capital at\u00a0Lalibela\u00a0before giving way to the\u00a0Solomonic dynasty\u00a0in the 13th century. During the early Solomonic period, Ethiopia went through military reforms and imperial expansion that allowed it to dominate the\u00a0Horn of Africa.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
