Ethiopia is clearly one of the most important countries in Africa.
First of all, with about 75 million people, it is the third most
populous country in Africa. Second, it is very strategically
located, in the Horn of Africa and bordering Eritrea, Sudan, Kenya,
and Somalia, with some of whom it has touchy and sometimes worse
relations. Yet, its capital - Addis Ababa - is the headquarters of
the African Union, the prime meeting place for Africa's leaders.
So, if things went poorly in Ethiopia, this would not be good for
Africa, and for a long time this was the case, with internal
disruption rife, until it was literally suppressed under the strong
rule of the recently deceased Meles Zenawi. The Historical
Dictionary of Ethiopia, Second Edition covers the history of
Ethiopia through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes,
and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has several
hundred cross-referenced entries on important personalities,
politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This
book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and
anyone wanting to know more about Ethiopia.
