For the singer, see Queen Omega (singer)'' Empress Menen Asfaw (Baptismal name ''Walatta Giyorgis'')〔(Royal Ark )〕 (25 Magabit 1883 Ethiopian Calendar, 3 April 1891 Gregorian Calendar – 15 February 1962) was the Empress consort of the Ethiopian Empire. She was the wife of Emperor Haile Selassie. ==Family== Menen was born Itege Menen Asfaw to an Oromo family. She was the daughter of Asfaw, Jantirar of Ambassel. Her maternal grandfather was ''Negus'' Mikael of Zion, and her uncle was Emperor Iyasu V (Lij Iyasu). According to both published and unpublished reports, the then Woizero Menen Asfaw was first given in marriage by her family to the prominent Wollo nobleman, Dejazmach Ali of Cherecha at a very young age, as was the prevailing custom. She bore him two children, a daughter, Woizero Belaynesh Ali, and a son, Jantirar Asfaw Ali.〔Ambassador Zewde Retta, ''Tafari Makonnen, Rejimu ye Siltan Guzo'' ("Tafari Makonnen, the Long Journey to Power")〕 This first marriage ended in divorce, and her natal family then arranged for Woizero Menen to marry Dejazmach Amede Ali Aba-Deyas, another very prominent nobleman of Wollo. She bore her second husband two children as well, a daughter, Woizero Desta Amede, and a son, Jantirar Gebregziabiher Amede.〔Zewde Retta, ''Tafari Makonnen''〕 Following the sudden death of her second husband, Woizero Menen's grandfather, ''Negus'' Mikael arranged her marriage to Ras Leulseged Atnaf Seged, a prominent Shewan nobleman, who was considerably older than Woizero Menen in late 1909 or early 1910. It is unclear whether Woizero Menen was married to the aged nobleman (and secured a divorce shortly afterwards to marry her royal groom) or whether there was only an engagement between them which was broken without ado. Woizero Menen probably met Dejazmach Tafari Makonnen (later the Emperor Haile Selassie) at the home of her uncle, Lij Iyasu. The rapport between the two may have inspired Lij Iyasu to attempt to bind Dejazmach Tafari to him more firmly through marriage ties. He therefore terminated the arrangement (whether marriage or engagement) between Woizero Menen and Ras Leulseged, and sent her to Harar to marry Dejazmach Tafari Makonnen.〔 Ras Leulseged apparently did not hold a grudge against Dejazmach Tafari for this circumstance, blaming it entirely on Lij Iyasu who had ordered it. Indeed, he was among the leaders who fought on the side of Dejazmach Tafari Makonnen in the Battle of Segale, and died in that battle.〔 Woizero Menen and the future Emperor were married in July 1911. At the time of this final marriage, Woizero Menen, the mother of four children, already once widowed and at least once divorced, was only twenty years old. The circumstances of the marriage, how it came about, and details of Woizero Menen's past marriages, are all detailed in two sources: the unpublished memoirs, preserved in the U.S. Library of Congress), of Ras Imru Haile Selassie, the cousin and childhood companion of Emperor Haile Selassie, who was party to the marriage arrangements and was intimately acquainted with these events; as well as in the Amharic biography ''Tafari Makonnen, Rejimu ye Siltan Guzo'' ("Taffari Makonnen, the Long Journey to Power") by Zewde Retta.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「:''"Queen Omega" redirects here.
