  1. Nah Ethiopia is not really poor there hasn't been a real famine in Ethiopia for the last century its was just a way to make the government look weak to hide all the sh1t they have been doing tbh Ethiopia is one of if not the most fertile country in africa and their are more cattle and livestock in Ethiopia than any place in africa farmers who are viewed as poor probably have hundreds or thousands of camels and cattle Ethiopia(more specifically the ex Ethiopian government)has been actively making chaos in many African countries one time they attacked the somalia and overthrew the government most people didn't hear about it because it was done by permission from the west but this the reason why Ethiopias neighbors are in chaos and why Eritrea is pretty isolated

  2. Ethiopia is pretty much the only country in eastern africa which has a decent climate what they have is bad agricultural practices.

  3.  @joelGi  shortly before ww2 italy quickly invaded Ethiopia to stop it from going japans way ,japan and Ethiopia were doing their own stuff intentionally not interacting with Europeans as a race battle since europeans kinda looked down on everyone at the time

  4.  @joseafonso7531  k chill

  5. Ethiopia needs to abandon rainfed agriculture and completely (mostly) focus on irrigation but the problem with that is most of Ethiopia is rugged and mountainous making it unsuitable for irrigation , if Ethiopia wants to overcome the problem the government needs to shift agriculture from the mountainous central regions into the flatlands in the east (afar and somali region) and convince the population to eat more animal products (having the largest livestock population in the continent and not using it for consumption is unwise management of resources ).

  6.  @فهميكتاني  the tplf (which used to control the northern part)was the only ones that tried to challenge the government and as u see it took only 3 weeks to destroy them and take their capital and most of the leaders are killed btw Fyi the somali region has stopped its separatist movement 2 years ago when the government signed a peace deal with onlf the somali region is currently the biggest supporter of the government ,with tplf out if the picture who could possibly defeat the government i mean tplf was thought to be invincible

  7. In ancient times Ethiopia conquered yemen and sourh arabia several times and ruled it for centuries
    8
  8.  @xaveircombs2690  they are not really separatist they didn't even mention the idea of succeeding they tried to overthrow the government which failed ,they won't separate even if they were told to they think thwy are the ones who made the country in the first place

  10.  @diargakande6740  Ethiopia has been cornered for 1,400 years so nothing new and the muslims of the area werent centralized nor did they take on industrialization like Ethiopia
    8
  11.  @cupanodensetsu2420  Ethiopia would've won any way the only reason they didnt expand is because Europeans blocked industrialization from them and britian actually attacked Ethiopia and killed one of its emperors (tweodros)who was making great reforms even making his own weapons and canons from scratch he inspired minilk since he was his father figure with out the British intervention he wouldn't have died giving Ethiopia much more time to expand and industrialize, egypt had a shit of an army not because of lack of guns they failed to even capture the nomadic north eastern afars of Ethiopia which wasnt under protection by the emprors which means egypt lost against literal nomads who fought wih swords while egypt had many guns and many officers from different p countries the mahadists were fans of Ethiopia thewodros used to support them immensely only the later empror(yohannes) who was a extremist Christian ruined the relation by marching to sudan to free egyptian soldiers who were captured by mahadists in exchange for britain giving back both Eritrea and Northern somalia and he succeeded, he was betrayed later on the another battle field like he did with tweodros all the people he persecuted joined the mahadists and beheaded him
    8
  12.  @cupanodensetsu2420  i want to add another thing Ethiopia is a very mountainous country 70% of africas mountains are located in Ethiopia egypt wouldnt have power to conquer such a mountainous country while italy a much more industrialized nation tried and failed ,every invading power attacked Ethiopia from its low lands in the eastb and eritrea including egypt ,tana is located in the north west around the most rugged mountains its the most defended area that's why egypt didnt try to invade from there in our time line its like how italy tried to conquer france from the alps even with the nazis kicking france left and right italy couldn't brake through the alps , unification with egypt didnt even cross the minds of the Sudanese if egypt didn't conquer them by force thats not possible nobody gives away their independence so easily , and what ever Europe was doing to weaken egypt they were doing it more to Ethiopia so no Ethiopia would've won either way
    8
  13. What would really happen Colonization doesn't occur in africa Egypt and Ethiopia : fine I'll do it my self
    7
  14. In africa if Ethiopia becomes powerful in the future i can see them spreading orthodox Christianity and moderate islam (because some of them are Muslims but more tolerant than most aftican Muslim) if not sunni islam will take over the entire continent
    7
  15.  @mirrijacob7533  bruh u guys have identical history ,culture and language ur probably a nationalistic Eritrean but ur country is ruled by a dictator so ur opinion doesn't really matter i am trying to be offensive this is just a fact
    7
  16. Bruh u guys overthrew an elected democratic president and installed a dictator if that doesn't tell u a thing or two about Egyptians idk what will
    7
  17.  @fritoss3437  Ethiopia didnt expand because of britain and italy taking away kenya,Somalia and eastern sudan Ethiopia had no other interests
    7
  18. Building a city to waste water while complaining that u don't have enough water is not the smartest move this will definitely backfire on Egypt and how the International community views it
    6
  19.  @fritoss3437  well egypt tried twice and failed twice
    6
  20.  @rarelife1  Europeans took Eritrea and most of Djibouti from Ethiopia that why Eritreans are abyssinians and the sultan of northern Djiboutians , southern eritreans and eastern ethiopian afars is also very patriotic towards what hw considers his country Ethiopia
    6
  21.  @mint8648  it wasnt small it was decentralized all considered them selfs one and admitted the fact that they all belonged to one state the problem was who would rule
    6
  22. U mean a really long granite stick carved out of a mountain and transported miles to where it stands now working as a lighthouse for centuries ,yeah pretty much
    6
  23. Egypt&half ofsudan vs ethiopia and the other half of sudan, turky will try to expand,iran will try to expand as well, Morocco vs Algeria (unlikely but not impossible), a bunch of colonial (fabricated) african countries fighting each other to reshape their borders into something that makes sense,pakistan vs india,.....
    6
  24. Absolutely agreed

  25.  @eca3101  doesn't matter its a luxury city so wastage of water will be the norm
    5
  26.  @eca3101  bruh i am a freaking architect and i had a course in water engineering u don't know sh1t better than me do u have the architecture design of the city or are u the water ministry (or what ever they call it) of Egypt Answer: no So stop actin like u know sh1t No luxurious city in world built in a freaking desert had ever saved more water than they used(the entire arab gulf is a great example) and with the history of water management of egypt its simply outrageous to claim egypt is trying to save water
    5
  27.  @eca3101  delete ur comment before someone else sees it and laughs at u 😂

  28. Finally i have been saying this same thing for ages finally some one else came to the same conclusion

  29. Northeast africa can feed the whole continent they are becoming food secure so maybe they will replace grain from russia,ukraine,.. Just look at Ethiopia,sudan or egypt large countries with ample supplies of water and good land , egypt might not make it but the other two have potential because they are relatively untouched.
    4
  30.  @eca3101  bruh this is how i know ur not an architect since we don't even call plans blue prints we call it architectural designs Its literally built for the rich u can't deny it and i bet u cant give me a source that says it will house half the population of cairo I'll wait(even if it can house half as much as Cairo i am confident that Egypt has a not so far population of upper class and midupperclass similar to that number since the total population of egypt is literally 100million)
    4
  31.  @eca3101  not have a degree ?makes mistakes!? u literal idiot ur the one who doesn't even know water engineering literally is the general name of hydraulics and water resources management and distribution its literally about the provision of clean(cleaning) water, disposal of waste water and sewage, and the prevention of flood damage stop embarrassing ur self its so cringe
    4
  32.  @imcloud305  iran hates two things sunnis and America both of which has a place in Egypt
    4
  33.  @samsamatar3573  first of all the government is now under the oromos and even the prime minister ia an oromo second u might have not read what i wrote before let me repeat the onlf has signed a peace deal with the government of Ethiopia if u really know anything about the the somali region u would've understood what a peace deal with the onlf means,tigrayans are not separatists for God's sake they ruled the country for 27 years they would've separated if they wanted to
    4
  34.  @hussein.m1661  bruh wtf are u talking about sudan flooded because of the rain if Ethiopia didn't start filling the dam sudan would've had it worse fyi Ethiopia filled a very small amount which isnot enough to reach the turbines u know nothing about the dam it has been proven that the dam doesn't have a single problem
    4
  35.  @samsamatar3573  u do realize that with out help from foreigners helping annexing Djibouti is child's play for Ethiopia they can use the excuse that some parts of Djibouti were actually loaned to France and they are getting back their land plus most Somali Djiboutians originate from diredawa in Ethiopia and all afars are technically Ethiopians since the last afar sultans live in Ethiopia and are pro Ethiopians plus afars also originate from Ethiopia
    4
  36. Funny considering how much Ethiopians resemble akkadian (especially language)
    4
  37. Yes bruh
    4
  38. It sounds far fetched to say italy would've let Ethiopia brake off in the end ,i mean who in his right mind would give away a large mineral rich fertile land like Ethiopia brake off its also the source of the nile so even if Egypt tries to get independent italy could've made the nile its hostage(mussolini actually planned on making a large dam to take the nile hostage to indirectly but control egypt but he lacked the money for it), Ethiopia is diverse all italy needs to do is separate the muslims from the Christians ethnic genocide is also on the table and also Ethiopia is very mountainous and has a very similar climate to that of italy italian farmers would've settled in large numbers and would've made the country at least quarter- roughly half ethnically italian and the other quarter would've been mixed plus jewish (mussolini planned on making a jewish home land in Ethiopia ) and would've made the remaining natives speak italian (because italian was the only language that was thought in italian colonies ) i serious doubt the natives could've made a big difference they were not consecrated in a specific place they were scattered all around the country they didn't even speak the same language where would they get military training or coordination all italy needed to do was eliminate the larger ethnic groups and the rest wouldn't try fighting if italy treats them well i mean i ma sure the muslims werre not big fans of a Christian emperor
    4
  39. True that
    4
  40. In the past Ethiopia was pretty divided and trying to be a separate country but now suddenly every one is became so nationalist even then ethio somalis (who are know to hate Ethiopia to the greatest extent)are the biggest supporters of the government which means the government can become wayyyy more powerful than it was in the past
    4
  41. Ethiopia, e.a.f , the megrib and the cape are bound to be industrialized by the coming decades its not even up for debate really the E.A.F might not succeed but the Ethiopia and the magreb for example have been (historicaly speaking) strong and continuous civilization Ethiopia is literally 3000 years old only declined (but didnt collapse)because of islam after 2000+ years of prosperity ,they still kept their centralized civilization until it started shaking apart and retracting 16th century onward (still didnt collapse but lost territory)but it still shows how resilient they are under constant pressure they will get back on their feet because everyone around them is either a failed or a weak state whose existence is tide toncontinuous western aid the megrib has seen countless civilization like Carthage,andalusia,... these civilization always spring up and there hasnt been a single time in history where they didnt have at least one decent civilization with the exception of the roman era both are meant to succeed and like they had for thousands of years so I don't see a reason why they wont do it again I cant speak for the rest of Africa since they artificial countries their existence isnt justified
    3
  42. Well who said the countries from the east african federation are food secure actually the onoy country with decent agricultural output in the entire region of east africa is Ethiopia .
    3
  43. All thanks to the eritrean government they closed all universities,killed a bunch of people,opened a bunch of prisons,f**ked the economy by messing with Ethiopia,and oppressed most of its population the people started leaving the country to the extent that their population went from 5,5million to 3million and in a few decades and even now its rapidly declining hundreds of thousands of them are actually taking refuge in Ethiopia plus i don't even think Eritrean soldiers would fight for a government which did all of this to them and the Ethiopian military is wayy more superior to the Eritrean military the only ally Eritrea can get is Egypt and because Ethiopia has control over Egypts water supply i doubt they would intervene another thing is america is not fond of Eritrean neither is russia nor turkey the only allies they had were the arabs which are now siding with Ethiopia especially uae (Eritreas second biggest supporter after Egypt ),another thing is most Eritreans post ethio-eritrean war infrastructure was destroyed in the ethio-eritrean war and never rebuilt while Ethiopia is literally one of the fastest growing countries in Africa Eritrea pretty much f**ked up but i don't think there will be a war at least if the dictator in Eritrea stays in power, Ethiopia and Eritrea are normalizing their relationship which i think is both good and bad for Ethiopia time will tell but if Ethiopia wants to conquer Eritrea they should do it in the next few years i think its the best time and it would be even better if foreigners don't intervene especially america
    3
  44. Egypt doesn't have a good military projection and they lost most of their wars anyway controlling Ethiopia which has70-80%of Africas highlands is not going to happen its just the reality u can't beat highlanders in their own ground u can take Afghanistan for example and also this will not the be first time Egypt tried to conquer Ethiopia they have triedd and failed
    3
  45.  @yaqubmohamed1240  u see if axum didn't fall Somali kingdoms wouldn't have came to existence to Start wih and fyi the ottomans,Egyptians and Sudanese tried to conquer Ethiopia and they all failed this has nothing to do with religion it just the simple fact that u can't defeat the Ethiopians in their own battle ground
    3
  46.  @ciaranharrington4141  yeah the floods will be so sweet that they will remove the nile delta from existence alsisi is going to destroy it any way
    3
  47. Probably not because if it weren't for themuslim arabs the empire of axum (semitic but based on the horn of africa) wouldn't have fallen they were pretty strong and they would've won against the mongols since the tip of territory reached southern coast of Egypt they would've attacked the mongols to help Egypt
    3
  48.  @samsamatar3573  well tbh it was the old regime of Ethiopia using propaganda to get money from the US Ethiopia has more than enough natural resources to feed the entire region its just a fact okay so dont be mad, and u see france is the one building the navy for Ethiopia where do u think the navy will be made and why do u think they are building it the other countries are in complete chaos Djibouti is simply the obvious answer plus if u didn't realize by now let me tell u ,ur president is in fact born and raised in Ethiopia and got he's education there who do u think he will prefer he's mother land or Djibouti

  49. Same

  50.  @Paint_Eater  😂

  51. U guys shouldn't have overthrown mursi u could've waited for the elections but no u had to install a dictator that is literally making a city to waste water and hide from the people but blames Ethiopia for not giving Egypt enough water what is this logic
    3
  52.  @joelGi  it would've been interesting to say the least
    3
  53.  @sabrina1380m  yes but they didn't prevent them from colonizing others because they did conquer sudan and tried to conquer Ethiopia while they were under ottoman rule in our time line

  55. There is no way Ukraine ia gaining its east and crimea back so idk how they are going to continue as a country considering the problems and lack of moral losing such large amounts of territory causes
    3
  56.  @captaineurope6564  yeah actually Djibouti was loaned to france by Ethiopians for 100 years but Ethiopia went to civil war before retaking it most Djiboutians have ancestry in Ethiopia and even the president was born and raised in Ethiopia
    3
  57. Tplfs leader was caught so that not happening Egypts only chance is to fight one on one since terrorists never really had a chance in Ethiopia it has a very harsh military and a very passive population religious extremism is also not possible

  58.  @brookzerai615  😂
    3
  59. U mentioning Somalia shows that u know nothing about colonial history if colonization didnt occur Somalia would've been either absorbed by Ethiopia or become a trading empire the whole reason somalia went into civil war is because they invaded Ethiopia by the help of many many countries including america if the war didn't happen they would've stayed rich like they were before the war
    3
  60.  @ivanstrydom8417  Ethiopia went to war with both eritrea and Somalia because of colonization if it didnt happen both countries wouldn't have existed and the horn of africa would've united avoiding all the war and poverty plus the whole reason hailesilassie was deposed is because he failed to industrialize Ethiopia this happened because the economy of Ethiopia was utterly crused because of ww2 and unlike Europe Ethiopia wasnt repatriated hey only gave Ethiopia 25million dollars while it lost billions of dollars plus Ethiopia lost the deal with japan ( japan agreed to send thousands of people to help industrialize Ethiopia and make the Ethiopian part of the blue nile a huge cotton producing giant ) all was lost because of italys colonial interests in the horn of africa Ethiopia is a landlocked nation till this day because of the same reason
    3
  61.  @El-Silver  no climate didn't have anything to do with it since around 100million africans have died because of the same bacteria which caused the plague infact the Justinian plague (which was caused by the same bacteria) killed alot of people in north eastern africa before it went to Byzantium
    2
  62. I think countries like Mexico,egypt and the horn of africa had potential. Ik the horn of Africa isnt a unified country but if they had any sane leaders they would've united ages ago they are their own culturally,genetical and historically distinct fromm the rest of Africa only resembling each other so why not?if the scramble for africa didnt happen Ethiopia under emperor Theodore would've conquered the rest of the horn and industrialized swiftly ,reading about the guy makes me believe they would've gone in the same trajectory as japan but with much more valuable land and resources,japan has no major natural resources to speak of , Ethiopia has very fertile lands so it could've supported a large population with the addition of the longest coast line on the continent placed along babal-mendeb they could've become a second tier superpower or things go south and they become even poorer than now, when it comes to egypt it has much to do with the scramble for africa aswell if they kept their territories that spanned to even central africa they would've not been too dependent on the nile and even if they stayed that way they manage to profit enough from their territories and they could've (still doubt tho) defeated/conquered Ethiopia at some point having control over the entire nile and the entire african side of the red sea would've made them filthy rich cant say much for their subjects outside modern egypt tho

  63. Correction the byzantines were romans, eastern romans .
    2
  64. If the either hailesilassie or the communists didn't lose Ethiopia would've been a region power as bad as the communists were they were better than the ones who ruled the country for 30 years they gave away everything Ethiopia had and the Ethiopian population experienced real poverty after the communists were overthrown

  69.  @YorkerEli  sheba was in yemen but nortern Ethiopia was under the control of saba and many sabaeans migrated to Ethiopia making what are now called habesha ,but coffee was discovered in Ethiopia its not even debatable coffee originally grows in tropical type jungles on the equator, yemen is not in the equator nor does it have tropical type jungles infact yemen is a complete desert

  77.  @thelore1394  Europe isnt semitic but indo european even the ashkenazi jews are barely semitic compared to the arabs , there simply wasnt enough jews to spread thay much dna , modern semites are only arabs,assyrians,south arabians(non-arab),some jews ,ethiosemites to some extent amd some other minor groups
    2
  78. Correction the greeks copied the bull gods from minoans who lived in Crete , minoans were not indo European and its well know that they come from the middle east and some Norwegian historians and researchers say that they were north or south semitic speakers which explains why their depictions of fertility god and the way their women dressed look very similar to the south west semitic depiction of astar (ishtar) they also depicted bulls and were good sailors

  91. He said Ethiopia doesn't have a military projection that is capable of occupying Egypt and Egypt has nothing that Ethiopia wants, Adn yes the dam will be finished it wouldn't have lasted this long if the west didn't secretly support it,it almost finished u think the west would let the build it if it wasn't in their interest they will probably use Ethiopia to stop Egypt from becoming a radical islamist state they did use Ethiopia before to overthrow the Somali sharia government and america probably doesn't want Ethiopia( the seat of the african union and arguably the most influential african country on other african nations)to get in the hands of Russia,china or iran ,plus destroying a dam is not simply especially when u have russian and Israeli anti aircraft missiles around the dam Egypts only chance to stop the dam is either intervene by a proxy in sudan and rebels in Ethiopia or directly go and stop the dam manually ,the rebels won't probably work and directly marching towards Ethiopia doesn't seem as the best idea so try to use sudan
    2
  92. Lol ur delusional a single person cannot talk for the entire Ethiopia nor oromia,first there is no single party that is working to get independence in oromia nor tigray if ur probably living in an other country and ur not following the politics closely Ethiopia has never been more united and thats a fact, weather some parts of Ethiopia are forcefully seized doesn't matter literally every single country did this and that doesn't mean it will fall i am a gurage (half) and even tho gurages were force fully annexed we have no intent of succeeding from Ethiopia and the same goes for 99%of Ethiopians including the Somali region nationalism is just to powerful in Ethiopia ,so stop spreading falsehood because ur self swallowed Ethiopia is going to be a superpower weather u like it or not

  96.  @thechosenone1533  just google german support for Ethiopia in ww2 ,germany wanted Italy to stay distracted while they annex Austria, if u thought Italy and germany were very friendly with each other u dont know any history
    2
  97.  @ikengaspirit3063  agew are very cushitic they migrated from eritrea to ethiopia , before gudith i think some jews revolted i mean arabs mention thay the najashi of axum was fighting a tribe around the source of the nile and the source of the nile(tana) was occupied by the jews until the late 14th century so i think the axumites started in forcing Christianity on them or maybe they just wanted independence there is still a chance many of the jews were originally himyarites from yemen who settled in Ethiopia when axum had influence over them
    2
  98. France is the one helping Ethiopia make he navy,its confusing right
    2
  99. Turkey and Ethiopia will probably become more and more homogeneous i mean lets look at Ethiopia for example it has like 80 different ethnic groups but only 4 or 5 are dominant in both population and influence there is no way all 80 will survive the next century and those 4 and 5 are also extremely similar to each other u can classify them between the semitic speakers and the cushitic speakers the north being semitic and the south be in cushitic the semitics have more in common to each other than the cushitics have with each other both geographical and culturaly so i can see the semitic speakers uniting in a single ethnic group in the near future and the cushites being separated but high in both population and influence i don't think Ethiopians classify them selfs or discriminate them selfs on the basis of ur semitic ur cushitic but i can see two major groups one being the amhara who are semitic speakers and the second being Oromo who are cushitic speakers i think the semites would win since the did times and times before and when we come to turkey i see no way in hell the kurds gonna win against turkey they couldn't even win properly against iraq and iraq is literally a failed state in the next few decades most of will either get assimilated by the turks , deported like they did with the armenians or submit to turkey like most of them do these days it just a fact turkey will become a dominant power the kurds don't stand a chance the only ones who can destroy turkey are turks them selfs and i really don't see that happening in the near future
    2
  100. No u see amharas and tigres were created after the fall of axum ,and currently in Ethiopia nationalism is rising so tribalism wont be a problem for long
    2
  101. Ethiopia has 70-80% of africas mountains the heart lands of Ethiopia are basically a giant fort and its a really big country its like twice the size of texas in ower time line and in this time line Ethiopia is even bigger so i doubt the Portuguese have a chance to conquer it they will get lost in the mazo of mountains or something

  102. Ethnic division in Ethiopia is utterly fabricated by the tplf after the commies were overthrown tplf high jacked ethiopia and separated it into ethnic federalism which is despised by Ethiopians most conflicts are funded by tplf and Egypt and once tplf gets removed its all going away the tplf was created because Ethiopian elites got divided tplf leadership is the part that decided to part ideologies and take everything forthem selfs even if they win they won't destroy ethiopia its was never their plan to do so because without ethiopia non of the said regions including tigray can survive if they wanted to destroy ethiopia they could've done so in the 30 years that they ruled the country till this day the leaders havent mentioned a single thing about succession let alone the destruction if ethiopia, the oromos arent united them selfs they are divided in 3 the northern ones who have been influenced by the habesha who they identify with overwhelmingly orthodox Christians and patriotic ethiopias they see the rest of the ormos as uncivilized subhumans,second the east oromos who are influenced by the habeshas but the muslim habeshas who have completely different ideologies but still recognize their abyssinian/habesha identity the oromos from the east admire and often imitate them ,mostly sunni muslims ,they as well see the rest of the oromos as uncivilized,the 3rd and problematic are some suboromos namely wallga,arsi and ambo they dont pose a serious threat to the existence of ethiopia but they are distinct from the rest and got less exposure to abyssininan culture the reason why tplf and egypt were able to make small scattered militias out of them The gumuz are an absolute minority and purging them wouldn't be hard for the amhara the only reason they arent doing that is because they know the militias come from eastern sudan (which is ethnicity gumuz) and are funded fighters not a real thing they are trying to deter the construction of the gerd because they were no such thing as organized militias in gumuz before the dam was built they will wither away as well Overall Most Ethiopians are nationists dont want harm to their country the actual threat for the Ethiopian government(not country) is the rise of nationalism its apparent that if the current government doesnt remove ethnic federalism like it initially implied people will overthrow them it might result in a socialist government appearing in Ethiopia which isnt great but there is this party which also hates federalism and happens to be the most popular opposition party for the same reason , it has a decent chance of winning an election and removing federalism peacefully this party is so popular that its the single party that the didnt get its members imprisoned because the government fears what might come after I want to remind u that most Ethiopians are nationlistic u often find ultranationists especially in amhara,snnp,afar,eastern /northern somali,sidama,harar,gambella and of course adiss abeba where the government purposely stops elections and elects puppets from other cities as mayors of thr city because if they are allowed to talk the government is a gonner

  104. Egypt has lost against Ethiopia before even when Egypt had far superior weapons and trained soldiers ,Ethiopia is basically a fort, the second biggest Egyptian division was completely eliminated by a small desert tribe called afar they didn't even know they were at war until the Egyptian were too close but they still wom because they know the ups and downs of the region

  105. The Ukrainian military recently said that "drones aren't making any visible change in the battle field" so idk about drones man ,they were hyped initially by the nagorokhrabak war but they flopped shortly after the Ukraine war started Ukrainians even wrote a sing for it but now the baytarkh company it self stopped bragging and posting videos because the drones are doing no damage currently, the russias have figured out how to shoot them down somehow i think thats the case but i am not sure

  111.  @sensuitaima6511  bruh u do realize that he defeated tplf(a party that controlled ethiopia for 30years) and captured their leader in less than a month if this is not victory i don't know what is,and fyi the university of mekele is going to start accepting students 5 days from now if he didn't control tigray this wouldn't have happened ,anoher the uk and endf never said Eritreans entered tigray and eu just said they need to go to tigray to prove weather Eritreans are there or not u are only correct about the us

  113. Ethiopians are genetically speaking a mix of three groups namely native east African hunter gatherer, natufian(levantine origin) and early iron age southarabian none of these groups developed an immunity against malaria while Bantus and other groups did , even the native component was mountain dwellers unconditioned to tropical life .

  115. -asumming Japan would last to see the decline if russia let alone annexing parts of russia the way japan is now with economic stagnation,low birth rate/highaging,massive debts,... a single slip-up would mean the end of japan as we know it does follow what the US tells it so it might mess with russia but no way are they gaining anything out of it -ur remarks about the fall of the ccp as easily as that is even more absurd anykind of war with china would devastate both sides 0, the government has changed the country from a feudal back water into a world power in record time so their is no way the people will rise wven if they did china would instantly crush it like they have done before unlike most countries they dont mind killingtheir own citizens like cattle if they dont cooperate it's a Chinese tradition, if china secures the petroyuan they will become economically untouchable and no one would go to war with a nuclear power because=end of the world so i dont get what u are coming from
    1
  116. I dont think anyone would dare to touch russian territory unless the government it self falls first because again nobody messes with nuclear powers thinking the Ukraine war has weakened russia is not realistic it hasnt used most of its military plus tbh they look like they avoid using most of the big guns that are able to vaporize Ukraine because the civilian casualty would be too much which might shake the russian moral,give them a bad name in international politics or maybe make it harder for them to annex Ukrainian regions (because the population might become hostile to russia like the chechnyans were before) overall except the west nobody has anything against russia so they have a decent chance of surviving

  127. But he isnt wrong tho the balkans=low population to resist and Egypt which has a large population is completely f**ked over by the ambitions of Ethiopia manifesting as the gerd dam which at the current stage is filled enough that if it was to be destroyed could result in an unprecedented catastrophe in sudan and Egypt so in the coming years Egypt cant help but become an Ethiopian puppet state ,turkey happens to be one of Ethiopias closest allies and its not a coincidence turkey is planning to take over egypt at some point once they have egypt they would've enough population to bully anyone around them so i can see where whatifalthist is coming from

  133. Ethiopia is pretty much the only continuous highly sophisticated state to exist in subsaharan african there were other states but didnt last long, they werent continuous plus they were as sophisticated as ethiopia(which was literally a world power in the 3rd-7th century) Even the name of the original Ethiopians (habesha) is still what they refer themselfs with,same script,same language(kinda),same people no other subsaharan country has achieved this Note:kush in sudan was a very decent and sophisticated state but it was throughly destroyed by the axumites (Ethiopians) in the 3rd century ad so their culture is completely extinct it doesnt count

  136.  @80Day_bender  currently actually quite the opposite they were at war with tplf which is just a party not the whole region and no Eritrea never liked them infact it intervened to keep the Ethiopian borders safe ,ethiopia and eritrea have been best buddies for the last 3 years since the peace deal tplf and eritrea hate each other its a well known fact
    1
  137.  @80Day_bender  30 years ago eritrea wanted to succeed from ethiopia so there was a civil war and eritrea is not a tribe or an ethnic group

  138. The lack of oil huh thats also a result of bad leader ship the brits found large oil deposits in the ogaden region of Ethiopia in the early 19s all mussolini had to do was building an oil pump to the red sea, simple but no he had to be an idiot

  144.  @imcloud305  i doubt russia and even the Soviets always supported the Ethiopians even when Ethiopia was at the brink of collapse because of civil war and invasion of Somalia which was backed by the entire arab league except south yemen the soviets quickly changed sides from Somalia to Ethiopia and saved their as$'s , and as far as i remember they also signed the same deal which they signed with Egypt regarding nuclear power and also both israel and russia are the ones protecting the dam for Ethiopia by giving them military equipment
    1
  145.  @imcloud305  i can see saudiarabia,iraq,syria,lebanon, and most other arab countries on Egypts side or just neutral but uae,qatar,kuweit,turkey and other countries with a bumpy relationship with other arab countries on the side of Ethiopia iran is definitely on Ethiopias side tho

  146. @Mark i wouldn't call ethiopia civil war torn country because it has an unstable northern strip that it didn't give Ethiopia any use egypt doesnt control the terrorists in sinai either but is egypt in civil war please look up what the definition of civil war is
    1
  147. @Mark quite sure the tplf isnt a separatist either they have never said anything about getting a separate country matter of fact they are requesting the continuation of the regional budget and services that were normally provided by the government and even if they separate its not a bad thing for Ethiopia the region is basically useless the whole reason Ethiopia is viewed as a poor country is because of the poverty in the region famines and stuff were quite frequent back in the 20th century and even now(until tolf rebelled the government of Ethiopia was funding the region with out getting anything of great value back only about 3-6 regions have actual significance and provide for the rest amd tigray is not one of them

  148. Seems like it the only reason they are not going to war is the Egypts pretty cheap water supply to israel if Ethiopia(a country which has no issues with israel) controls the water israel will gladly backstab Egypt

  152. -The west winning against russo-chinese coalition is not guaranteed actually its unlikely the est has pissed of the entire word not just these two nations so many countries will be turning their backs on the west and joining the chinese side they jist need to replace the dollar with the yuan and western power is basically nonexistent , -russia wont have a civil war or independence fighters or whatever in the near future(it will probably expand especially in central asia) if it doesnt lose to the west the only reason that might happen is if the population growth rate stays declining, climate change is their friend as ice starts melting they will have more land and higher temperatures so that might help them make more babies but other wise they are ducked -i can agree that southafrica might collapse because of economic problems since the population are already desatisfied with economic difficulties -nigeria and E.A.F becoming the two african powers is very very unlikely i dont even think nigeria could live longer than a decade or a two and at no point in history was Ethiopia outmatched by a neighboring african country even at the hight of egypt it failed to conquer Ethiopia in 3 different occasions miserably so there goes E.A.F's even if they succeed economy wise they have no chance against ethiopia military and influence wise but knowing that ethiopia has friendly relations with all of the memeber nations they will probably be allies not enemies if i was to choose superpowers in africa i would say ethiopia,one megrebi country,the cape (if the whites succeed) much like whatifalthist predicted

  153. That was haile silassie dream he changed the name abyssinia to Ethiopia because the region was known as Ethiopia in ancient times the name abyssinia would've probably been habesha supremacist and he wanted a united horn of africa not just habesha,he failed to capture Somalia because britain gave it independence even tho it was considered an abyssinia territory by the International community and he was getting ready to occupy Djibouti right before he was overthrown

  163. Nah in the past people used to be more tribalist (especially after the fall of the communist) but now they are mostly nationalist even the ethio-somali (who had every chance of succeeding when the recent war started but they were the first ones to flood the streets and support the government) Note:Ethiopia is going start oil production this year which means more economic power

  178. 18:18 Ethiopians and Eritreans are individualistic for the most part .they dont have family names,clan structures or anything similar except 20th century language based strcuctures but they are very relatively newideas and have minimum effect on the wider population especially in the central Ethiopias(where most of the population is located) case where they have virtually nothing holding them together except patriotism and nationalism that has a long history(solidified between 7th century ad-13th century ad), for that reason everytime their state collapses or losses large territory the central Ethiopians start from stracth reclaim the land and expand more than the older one then collapse again,... they are still very conservative tho similar to japan in values but with a Christian twist.
    1
  179. Additionally its more likely for Ethiopia to be rightwing than left, because they have always been surrounded by enemies which made them aggressive and rather r@c1st , they had racial hierarchies similar to the west , systematic racism and the like but as they assimilated many groups which they considered low in the hierarchy and became similar in looks , culture,.. it started to make less sense and finally thw commies buried it with the monarchy and hundreds of thousands of right wingers(neutral opinion on tje monarchy but extreme nationalism) who only lost because minorities supported the lefties , additionally the lefties were also border line nationlists but with proMarxist,leninist institutions and atheism ofcourse.

The AU is doomed thats why algeria,Ethiopia,nigeria and south africa created the G4 group recent which looks like a military coalition to ensure the survival of this 4 states and project influence in the same time because the AU military speaking is weak and cant stop constant coups in many african countries these 4 countries arent having that with all of them having threats to their existence algeria=morroco, Ethiopia=egypts and the rebels it funds,nigeria=terrorists and south Africa=its own people i think thats the way to go to ensure safety (military wise) and not giant unions in such a large and diverse continent as africa

  182. I can guess what would happen if portugal and Ethiopia allied there are 3 scenarios 1st Ethiopia and portugal go to conflict for autonomy over arabia since Ethiopia is orthodox and Portugal is catholic which i think would lead to loses on the Ethiopian side 2nd they peacefully divide it between orthodox and catholic Ethiopia would probably want more of southern arabia than the rest of the middle east 3rd is Ethiopia converts to catholicism or sosenyos gives Ethiopia to the Portuguese which would make a giant catholic power and expand to the rest of the middle east and north africa doesn't matter in which scenario Portugal woulddecline like it did in our time line they would have had a large supporting population close to the middle east and india which would make it easier for portugal to subdue india and many parts of asia in no time but as soon as industrialization starts britain would take much of the colonies from them , portugal would possibly end the ottoman supremacy in the red sea in this time line i suspect that Ethiopia would take in many Europeans migrations because it had a better climate than most of africa and more fertile soil as well, expanding deep into the middle east doesnt sound possible maybe they would take the nile hostage and open trade through the red sea for Europeans but apart from that no major expansion to the middle east sounds possible i can see southern arabia becoming Christianized again and the arab slave trade would be abolished earlier (it was lead by southern arabians) , when colonization starts in that time line Ethiopia would be a major player maybe they would be invited to Vienna and make major claims possibly to the entirety of eastern african coastline and parts of central africa and industrialization would occur much earlier for ethiopia Making them one of the major powers Honestly the ethio-portugese alliances shouldn't have ended shortly like it did in our timeline it almost sounded like fantasy 2 christian empires located on two different edges of the world uniting to defeat the common enemy noice

  186.  @ahmedshehab7586  the Ethiopian economy is growing faster than egypts even in the pandemic , Ethiopia and Sudan are twice the size of france each and Ethiopia has 70-80% of the mountains of africa the Egyptian military just doesn't have enough military projection to attempt such a stunt and another thing russia and israel have the best radar and antiaircraft technology look at theoron dome of Israel or the s400 of russia which is literally the best in the world they are protecting the dam not Ethiopians them selfs

  190.  @thelore1394  false the turkics come from Northeast Asia who moved westwards into Mongolia then later they expanded to central and western asia , there is a big gap between the European migration and the turkic migration by the time Europeans arrived in Europe the turkics were just getting to mongolia , i should have said indo European earlier to make it less confusing since the modern europeans arent drived from a single group but 3 groups at the very least some came from africa via the middle east some from the zagros mountains and some from other places but that doesnt change my statement Europeans and middle eastern people aremt aren't the same race

  191.  @thelore1394  Byzantium isnt in the middle east and Jerusalem was originally jewish and very semitic before rome conquered it even then it stayed mostly middle eastern with some European settlers
    1
  192.  @thelore1394  i would actually say quite the opposite the purest semites are bedouin arabs of southern and south western arabia who look darker than their neighbors, a large number of European slaves were brought to the middle east because of the arab,the barbary and ottoman slave trade and u are forgetting that rome only conquered the levant and Egypt territories that arent that big considering how large the middle east is

  193.  @thelore1394  there arent mosaics in israel until the roman conquest, mosaics were invented by Mesopotamian sumerians and akkadians not Europeans the greeks adopted it later and then the romans and so on and where habe u seen a mksaic depicting a person from ancient persia they are non existent

  194.  @thelore1394  Byzantium is still pretty white since modern turks that live there are probably the descendants of assimilated greeks , anatolians and European slaves the original turks that cane there looked asian with some iranian dna from when they conquered central asia

  220. They should propose some kind of blue Nile federation if they convince Ethiopia they can convince sudan plus these three countries are not so much different and they have a shared history they would have the longest red sea coast also the longest coast in africa,an abundance of fresh water,oil and farm land plus the climate of Ethiopia is good for settlement all of this can solve Egypts problems but its unlikely to happen

    1
  227.  @lif3andthings763  false Ethiopia loand most of Djibouti to france to build it and own it , it didnt fall apart in ww2 infact even the Italians used in ww2 they even bought new engines for it to make it faster , Ethiopia would've never taken it militarily from france we both know that the french operated it because they had expertise but not because they owned it naturally Ethiopia took a while to train natives and operate it , it fell apart when cars became dominant in Ethiopia much later
    1
  228. @lif3andthings Axun was never an inland empire , they immigrated from the sea and they conquered the red sea coastal areas(sudan,southern egypt,yemen,Djibouti,eritrea,..) before conquering the interior of north eastern africa (which were conquered for their products that were meant to be exposted through the sea), their throughout conquest of the redsea coast was unparalleled till the ottomans conquerd the red sea almost 1500years Later but they did later move inwards (without losing their eritrean, Djiboutian part of the red sea) because of the arab expansion which saw them losing their main port cities

    1
  239.  @oitubeman1019  the tplf leader(sibkhat) is still in prison but after 8 months tigrayans are still loyal to tplf so the government formally said that tigray doesn't concern it any more and they can get independence if they want to every government worker and the army left tigray because 1st it is coasting the government alot of money and tigray is not a productive region like oromia and amhara so according to the government they lost 2-3 billion dollars capturing the region and then giving feeding,rehabilitating ,... 5 million people if u don't know Ethiopia iz considered a poor country not because the whole country is poor but because the high level of poverty and famines that occur in tigray , tigray was at the center of every famine that ever happened in Ethiopia so pretty much everyone there was being fed by the government and other institutions now the government took the chance to avoid the burden of taking care a of the region plus western governments are putting sanctions on ethiopia , tigrayans are backstabbers as far as ik they wanted a seize fire and the government gave them that now they realized that they were fooled and the government is trying to separate them from the rest of the country they ssaid thwy dont want a seize fire and infact they want to get the annual budget that was stopped because of the war thats obviously not happening and i am sure the government will soon announce tigray as its own country anoher buffer zone against down stream countries and alos Eritrea will have fun colonizing them so i dont see anything wrong with the idea

    1
  246.  @polecat7377  well ethiopia isnt as divided the current federal system was made by an antiethiopian regime and is at the process of being removed to either a unitarian or better federalism In reality Ethiopians are classified only in 2 ,habesha(abyssinans or semitic speakers) and non habesha ( non semitic speakers) Abyssinans get along except a small minority of tigrayans so ethiopia is pretty united thats why it continued to exist even when it was easy to succeed from it when the communists fell only eritrea succeeded and the rest stayed even tho many of them were killed because of normal commie stuff

  247.  @ikengaspirit3063  gudit was jewish somalis never mention her existence and arabs call her pagan she is believed to have married person from the Christian zagwe dynasty which took over after axum by no means was she Muslim the Christian church of Ethiopia would've slaughtered the muslims instead of the jews if that was the case but its not and the jews suffered for this reason

  250.  @ikengaspirit3063  the zagwe dynasty wasnt even axumite nor semitic it was agew,the only mentioned axumite general is hatsani who lived in the 6th or 7th century,lets say the zagwe were initially axumite and so was judith in axumite tradition she was caught with the gold gilded cloth of ezana so they(the church) cut her breasts in revenge she married an outsider and attacked the church and killed all the royals of axum except dil na'od, Ethiopian tradition states that many jews and pagans were killed in the early times of the solomonic dynasty because they are belived to be evil while semien or most specifically the jewish kingdoms fell later in the late 14th-15th century,even after that many from the dynasty oppressed them for that reason, there were many mosques in medieval solomonic Ethiopia but almost no synagogues why do u think they didnt allow them to build its obvious stop faking history

  251. False thinking a military asset is worthless because it can be destroyed by a weapon of lesser price is foolish if that was the case why would countries spend ridiculous amounts of money on foot soldiers(training,equipment,...) when they can be killed by a cheap bullet thats costs a few cents? the war in Ukraine shows russia nature of depending on sheer numbers to win a war instead of a good strategy this has always been the case with russia so its more of a russian thing than anything plus the tanks russia uses in the war are old models, malfunctioning and rundown Russia has actually has the best tank in the world the t-14 but its too expensive to manufacture and waste in Ukraine al they use older tanks after all russias plan is to take trannisstria not kiev so why bother?

  254.  @westcrook2718  Ethiopia existed as a country for 3000years all the ethnicities im Ethiopia are under the afroasiatic family who have more similar to each other than anyone and among those afroasiatic ethnicities semitic speakers and cushitic speakers dominate the country they are more than 90% , 50% is semitic speakers 40%+ are cushituc speakers and they are all extremely similar at some instances some semites have more similarities to the cuhsites than they have with other semites and the opposite is true for example agew and amhara agew us cushitic amhara are semitic but they are culturally so similar that agews identify as amharas another example are amharas again and oromos amharas are semites oromos are cushites but because of the influence oromos and other cushites had on amharas their language became 30% cushitic and the structure chages from a north semitic svo structure to sov structure like akkadian did because of sumerian each and every group in Ethiopia are related both linguistically and ancestorally

  256.  @westcrook2718  tplf which was the only party against the government of Ethiopia only wanted to control the country to succeed the proof of that is the fact that they used two flag onw which is tigrays flag and the second is the Ethiopian federal flag u know nothing oromos rule the country xo they don't want to succeed and ogaden is a nono since Somalia is a failed state , onlf the separatist signed a peace deak with the government 3 years ago and with out Ethiopia ogaden is nothing since everything from water, electricity, food , infrastructure is all funded by Ethiopia the region doesn't give as much as it takes its a fact the only profitable regions are mainly amhara and oromo followed by snn and tigray the rest are much of a burden , he didn't stop the election the hpr postponed it because if covid and it will be held in the mext 2 months the elections cards have already been distributed, partys are advertising and stuff u not knowing this but accusing people shows how much of an ignorant u are lmao

  270.  @hussein.m1661  there has no been evidence of a massacre carried out by the government just claims by anti government fools but there has been massacres carried out by tplf on non tigrinyas with complete evidence and culprits ran away to sudan why do u think most tigrayans who fled to sudan are males we both know that women,children and the elderly flee when they are there is a genocide on them so why males And look at the time of tplf these things were pretty common one time they killed their own soldiers when they demand to get their salary for fighting in both Eritrean and Somali wars why would america care know as long as ethiopia is aligned with their foreign interests that's how america works

  278.  @JonsVlogz  first Ethiopia has placed thee best anti aircraft missile launchers around the gerd and posed a no fly zone(Egypt can't pass it according to international law)second Egypt doesn't have all western allies not even a chance France is the one supplying Ethiopia with equipment and they are also the ones Making th2 navy for Ethiopia,germany and uk never intervened and chose sides to start with third Ethiopia also has allies including the arabs specifically uae and saudi arabia,russia,china,turkey and israel they would never let a chance to destroy Egypt(Americans friend)slip from their hand and they also have investment in Ethiopia and even in ans around the dam,fourth even if Egypt has a good military it has a slim chance of wining against Ethiopia because if several reasons one being that Ethiopia doesn't neighbor Egypt Egypt doesn't have a good projectile military imagine egypt conquering sudan then conquering Ethiopia that doesn't seem possible, 70%-80% of africas mountains are found in Ethiopia so the country is basically a giant fort,egypt has no allies in the horn of Africa,Ethiopia is landlocked so egypts navy is pretty much use less ,israel could use the chance to take the suez ,egypt can never justify an attack on Ethiopia the country has 100million population its the only truly stable nation in the horn of africa and is a large refugee accept its a part of the UN and also the seat of the African union Another thing the first phase if the dam has already been filled destroying the dam will literally flood sudan and parts of Egypt creating a huge refugee crisis how do u think the world will react to that, Ethiopia can also simply change the course of the nile by using some explosives and the geography of Ethiopia will be helping them,they can also poison the Nile with sulphur which means no more fish and drinkable water for egypt ,just admit it egypt is in a pretty sticky situation what excuse can egypt use to start a war there is literally non sudan might help egypt but i am pretty sure the people of sudan will not fight against Ethiopia after all without the help of Ethiopia darfur is a mess last time sudan qent against Ethiopia was a few decades ago when sudan helped Eritrea get independence Ethiopia returned the favor by helping south sudan gain independence that shattered sudans economy and even Eritrea turned out to be a not so good neighbor for sudan the international community already said that the gerd isn't proven to impact egypt in any harmful way infact it has the chance to increase the nile by 5% this is just egypts attempt to demonize Ethiopia to avoid being under Ethiopias control and a way to shift away the attention of Egyptians from internal matters and opposition against the Egyptian government if things stay this way alsisi is going to face the same fate as mursi and who can protect him trump is no longer president and who knows what biden has in mind if he's the same as obama egypt is doomed
