fukk outta here, every tribe had warriors except for the extreme south which stayed out the way and kept with their ancient lifestyles. Tigrayans are riders but that’s no different than any other group.

Who made the word African? Even that argument is silly, a lot of people’s are given their names from outsiders.

I still don't know how the Tigray government at the time let that happen when Eritrea seceded to form their own country.
Forget a Navy, access to the ocean is critical for trade. In the Red Sea with access to the Suez and the Gulf of Aden, no less.
Sudan and Egypt are still on about this forsaken dam, holy shyt i thought they let that die out already
Entitlement. It's "always" been a certain way, which means it's "supposed" to be a certain way. Now the power dynamic shifts and there's fear of civil unrest that would result if Ehiopia decides to hold water hostage...which it's not even in their nature to do, personally speaking. But that fear will remain, and be used by others to keep the region destabilized.
I appreciate it. I know locals will know more details to be able to fill in the blanks, let me know what I'm missing.
Breh, I’m convinced the 30 years of scum Woyane rule teaching people ethnonationalist tribal politics has damaged the national fabric of the country. Moreover, the scum try to paint Abiy’s vision of Pan Ethiopian unity as a return to the Amhara driven monarchy to whip up old fears in the groups that were marginalized.
It’s pretty clear we’re up against fascists. Not that I’m a big fan of Abiy but the scum Woyane are shrewd and have contacts everywhere and lots of stolen govt money.
We gotta be real with ourselves. Many Ethiopians are lost from the knowledge of themselves. Just like any other Afrikan. We can’t claim we wasn’t colonized if the white man colonized us mentally. We didn’t run our schools, the British and other cacs ran our schools, their churches flooded our churches with white Jesus and Mary’s, sand cacs came to teach Ethiopian Muslims that wild Wahhabism doctrine, and cac Jews took the Ethiopian Jews to a questionable iteration of Israel for them to be their oppressed second class which divides white Israeli society from the third class Palestinians. It took the Black diaspora coming to Ethiopia in the late 19th and into the 20th century from us completely warping our self image.
It’s like we arrogant without understanding fully who we even are. Just the same shyt, Axum, Christianity, Adwa. We even let these cacs shorten our whole history while Iran, India, and China get to claim all their thousands of years of history. We don’t acknowledge our Nubian side but we Ethiopian? We don’t acknowledge Punt but we Ethiopian? I can see why so many banda sellout opp nikkaz disrespecting the flag and the culture because we disrespected ourselves by letting outsiders with no love for us dictate to us who we really are.

His end goal was the Agazian plan. Which would turn the Tigray province into a Tigrinya speaking nation state comprising of Eritrea, Tigray province, and Benishangul province where the dam is located.
I swear, outside of making the dam without IMF/World Bank funds, Meles Zenawi will be remembered as a trash leader in the context of Ethiopian history. He’s fortunate that that fake ass Stalin wannabe Mengistu was so unbelievably horrible. But Meles literally introduced an ethnic based apartheid system. Any tribe outside of its tribal lands is a second class citizen and in potential danger of death. I hope that piece of shyt is rotting in hell.

Nah, he was picked due to extreme social unrest. He's from a minority tribe, and his being chosen was meant to hold the country together after all the warring with Somalia and everything else.
Nah, Abiy is from the largest single ethnic group. He’s also half Amhara which ties him to the old ruling class. It was the unrest of those two groups which got Abiy promoted. He then went on his own program of reforms and preached a unity more reminiscent of the pre-TPLF days which basically upset his detractors in the TPLF and much of his Oromo base which are separatists and fringe Hutu types with their random killing of Amhara people.
Egypt through the TPLF is able to fuel conflict in areas that for years had a lid kept on them due to the TPLF’s 30 year reign of terror. Abiy isn’t trying to run the country the same way so it’s an easy recipe for madness. In all this, the capitol is as normal as always.

Time is long past trying to worry about anyone else’s sensitivity over words like “Black” and “African.” Long past. It’s not what you label yourselves that matters, it’s how you act. You either act in a manner that ensures your survival or you don’t. And Black people, everywhere, are not.
White people didn’t come and label Africans for the Africans benefit, it was for white folks benefit. So they don’t care what the Africans believe about themselves as long as the African does what he’s told. Same as here.
What we’re seeing in Africa on a large scale is what we’ve seen and are seeing over here on smaller scales throughout the country. Over here we wasted our time bullshytting and killing each other over colors and crews and neighborhoods and p*ssy. We destroyed our neighborhoods and cities by mastering all the deplorable shyt that comes with selling dope, and instead of buying shyt like the dirt cheap real estate around us we became so known for buying shyt like Cadillacs that it became not a stereotype but a truism about Black people and our spending on “luxury” items.
All that time, in many cases, we were living on the most valuable land in our respective cities. Ignorance, stupidity and shortsightedness now see us being gentrified out of these areas while white people make a fortune at the same time flipping the property!
Same principle happening in Africa. But white people have different plans for African “gentrification” cause in their mind there’s too many of em/ya’ll.

Ethiopia got the strongest and largest military in East Africa. The country get a lot foreign AID from the US (which they buy US military equipment )
The Tigrayans ethnic group might be about 10-6% but they heavy dominate (in numbers) the Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF). Also they group is in all parts of the government (might be through nepotism)
Plus they have a strong hold with the military-security services in Ethiopia (the command staff is mostly Tigrayans and the best weapons is located in the bases in the Tigray region)
The PM before him is I think.
