Empire of Ethiopia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Ethiopian Empire
The Ethiopian Empire ((アムハラ語:የኢትዮጵያ ንጉሠ ነገሥት መንግሥተ), ''Mängəstä Ityop'p'ya''), also known as Abyssinia (a Europeanized form of the Arabic ''Al-Habash''), spanned a geographical area covered by present-day Eritrea and the northern half of Ethiopia. It existed from approximately 1137 (beginning of Zagwe Dynasty) until 1974 when the monarchy was overthrown in a ''coup d'état''. Following the British occupation of Egypt in 1882, Ethiopia and Liberia were the only two African nations to remain independent during the Scramble for Africa by the European imperial powers in the late 19th century. In 1974, Ethiopia was one of only two countries in the world to have the title of Emperor for its head of state (the other being Japan, which still has the Emperor as its nominal ruler). It was the second-to-last country in Africa to use the title of Emperor (the last being the Central African Empire, which was implemented between 1976 and 1979 by Emperor Bokassa I). ==Ethiopian Dark Ages== After the conquest of Aksum by Queen Gudit or Yodit, a period began which some scholars refer to as the Ethiopian Dark Ages.〔Adekumobi, p. 10〕 According to Ethiopian tradition, she ruled over the remains of the Aksumite Empire for 40 years before transmitting the crown to her descendants.〔 Very little is known about the queen or the state, if indeed there even was one she set up. What is evident however, is that her reign marked the end of Aksumite control in Ethiopia.
