Ethiopian Independence

In the era of imperialism, the Western European group successfully conquered the majority of the world. In 1884, these countries directed their website to Africa during the Berlin Conference, and by the end of the nineteenth century Africa was almost completely dominated by colonial countries. However, there are countries that can resist the power of land starvation and continue to be independent. That is Ethiopia. In 1896 they resisted the Italian attacks in the Adowa battle as one of the two African countries that could successfully resist them colonial rule.

As the two oldest independent countries in Africa, these two countries have different forms of ancient relations. From ancient times until 1959, Ethiopian Orthodox Church of Tedahedo was managed by Coptic Orthodox Church. The Ethiopian army and the Egyptian army collided at the beginning of the 19th century by dominating the modern Sudanese territory and Ethiopia into the Red Sea. Both countries established formal diplomatic relations in 1927. Recently, both countries are members of the Nile Basin Initiative as there is a special relationship between the two countries of the Nile Basin.

The struggle between Christian countries in the Hume region of Ethiopia and Muslims in Somalia and the Red Sea coastalized the majority of the history of this area and today's country. With the help of the Ottoman Turkish, when one of the Muslim countries threatened the Kingdom of Ethiopia, in 1542 the Portuguese expedition arrived in Masawa in the Red Sea and turned to supporting that Christian alliance. Since that time, Portuguese have tried to bring Ethiopian Christianity to the Roman Catholic Church, but Ethiopia is still isolated, Christian, and intensely independent.

Muslims conquered Egypt in 640 BC, putting Christian Ethiopia in a defensive position. Since the Ethiopian Orthodox Church is still affiliated with the Alexander Orthodox Church and Egypt is a Muslim nation, the Ethiopians are skeptical and dissatisfied with the control over the appointment of their Christian faith . Muslims and Egyptians also have the right to rule Jerusalem and expel Ethiopian pilgrims to their most sacred cities. As a result, the Ethiopians began to claim power to Egypt by dominating the Nile. During the crusade, Emperor Lalibela (1190 - 1225) of Ethiopia built a new Jerusalem in Ethiopia. There, Muslims took over the magnificent underground rock churches by shifting the Sudan Heck Tech from the northern route. This became Atbara and then joined Nile.
