In the past decade he's led multiple expeditions throughout the continent traveling by foot, canoe, bicycle, inflatable raft, dhow and Land Rover. He's dealt with bandits, dangerous wildlife and many bouts of malaria to follow in the footsteps of his hero David Livingstone. Kingsley Holgate's expeditions include a grueling Cape Town to Cairo adventure on open boats; circumnavigating one of the world's largest salt pans in Botswana by land yacht and a family trip following the Tropic of Capricorn around the globe.

Unique among African countries, Ethiopia maintained independence during the Scramble for Africa , and continued to do so except for a 5 year period when it was under Italian ocupation.

28. Ethiopia - Ethiopian History - Aksum
    The origination of the peoples of Aksum, their lives, and culture.  
    http://www.ethiopianhistory.com/aksum
    
    Extractions: 300 BCE - 531 CE Aksum’s foundation is suggested to be as early as 300 BCE. Very little is known of the time period between the mid-first millennium BCE to the beginning of Aksum’s flourish, thought to be around the first century CE. There is little in common between the Aksumites and the earlier pre-Aksumite civilizations (Munro-Hay 1991, 4). The Aksumite kingdom was located in the northern province of Tigray and there it remained the capital of Ethiopia until the seventh century CE. Aksum owes its prosperity to its location. The Blue Nile basin and the Afar depression are both within a close proximity of Aksum. The former is rich of gold and the latter of salt: both materials having a highly important use to the Aksumites. Aksum was also within an accessible distance to the port of Adulis, on the coast of the Red Sea, hence maintaining trade relations with other nations, such as Egypt, India, and Arabia. Aksum’s ‘fertile’ and ‘well-watered’ location produced enough food for its population as well as its exotic animals, such as elephants and rhinoceros (Pankhurst 1998, 22-3). Aksum inherited a culture highly influenced by South Arabia. The Aksumites' language

There is no history without understanding culture. One without the culture, is without the past. Today Ethiopia lives through delay stages of modernity not having much interest to her past. Keeping with the roots was one of the Haile Sellassie tasks. We follow the same tradition. Not only restoration and preservation of Ethiopian heritage is our goal, but advancing it. That is why you can see the double name . Living culture is the people, you. Culture doesn't exist without memory and there is no future without culture. Knowing means remembering.

    Extractions: HIM Hyper-Biography : The Century Ethiopian Orthodox Church Ethiopian Orthodox church is the oldest of all Eastern Christianities (although Armenians would argue it). There are at least three separate bodies of Tawahedo church with their own administrations in Addis Ababa, Jerusalem and North America (also in Jamaica and Europe). Sometimes Ethiopian Orthodox Tawahedo Church is called Copic, which is due to the fact that till the early fifties the head of Ethiopian church was selected in Alexandria, Egypt and this tradition was changed under Haile Sellassie. Before the revolution the numbers of Ethiopian clergy were big, since Orthodoxy is usually very vested in monastic order. They say that during the Red Terror (1975-78) over 200 thousands monks were executed in Ethiopia.
