The time zone in Ethiopia is East Africa Time (EAT) (UTC+03).〔http://www.timetemperature.com/africa/ethiopia_time_zone.shtml〕 The IANA time zone database identifier is "Africa/Addis Ababa". Some Ethiopians use a 12-hour clock, with one cycle of 1 to 12 from dawn to dusk, and the other cycle from dusk to dawn. Unlike the convention in most countries, the start of the day is dawn, rather than midnight. Thus, 7:00 AM in East Africa Time corresponds to 1:00 in daylight hours in local Ethiopian time. 12:00 noon EAT is 6:00 in daylight hours, and 6:00 PM EAT is 12:00 in local time. The current time convention persists despite inroads of international norms, partly driven by Ethiopia's pride in its never-colonized status.〔("If you have a meeting in Ethiopia..." )〕 ==References== * (greenlandethiopia.com ) (accessed 3 December 2014) * (linkethiopia.org ) (accessed 3 December 2014) 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「Time in Ethiopia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
