Abyssinian empire ....modern day Ethiopia one of earliest civilazation....the kingdom that gave asylum to the first Muslims who were being persecuted in Arabia....one of the blessed lands much respect to Ethiopia..
Its about to blow up into its constituent parts. Its in ethiopia history. The center has always been restored by the strongest. I dont think they can do it in the modern age. Also oromos are now educated more than ever.
The only country... the lions of Africa Who 3 time embarrassed the white power of western colonization Fought and stood victorious as lion That is our history
The sad part is 44 years later, they are in almost same situation. No electricity, no clean water, no health care, still using the same farming technology etc....
but i watched news from international broadcasters such as dw,al jazeerah,bbc etc which indicated that Ethiopia had achieved tremendous progress during the rule of menes selawi,the late prime minister. from far away obsever in thailand.
mansa afer shame on you. Who and what are you? You divide Africa from Africa and believe you say something intelligent? These people like any people worked hard just to reflect an image of some pride in who they are. You have a pseudo superiority complex you have to overcome and fast.
They were still starving under the feudal system. This is the natural reaction to years snd years of oppression. Governments had the power to change what happened, but they failed.
I returned to Ethiopia from England to help rally the resistance. The British began their own invasion in January 1941, and the last organized Italian resistance in Italian East Africa surrendered in November 1941. The British restored Ethiopia’s independence. Haile Sellassie
Very sad that they got rid of the oldest Monarch in the world, was it for the better I think not, Shame on the students and Army who turned on the Monarchy
I hope to never see such a sadness like that seen when viewing the state of the poor children ever again I pray for a brighter future with peace in the site of man And woman! !God /Jah willing!
Wow! What an invaluable footage. Thank you! I have never seen any recordings of “meret le arashu” or “edger be h’bret” in action though it’s an important part of my family’s and our nation’s history. And to see it from the perspective of Si’lte and Afar. I never even considered that the revolution had touched Afar. The result of our poor education, despite my reading… I bet those elders lost their youth to the beloved revolution soon enough like the rest of Ethiopia..
The Emperor was an example of being out of touch. One story had him dying on a operating Table from botched surgery and making him looked like his death occured in an apartment of his former palace.
Very much the honeymoon period of the revolution captured here, things would turn sour very soon! Teferi Benti would of course be executed and the uneasy collaboration between the student activists and the military would give way to what was effectively a civil war between the two (the so-called 'Red Terror'). It's interesting to hear about the revolution in the Afar Region, something not really touched upon in most histories of this period - no mention of Eritrea though, surprisingly!
Eritrea and the food-as-a-weapon policy of the military communist regime are well covered in another Thames episode released around this time :) well, not smiley face since watching children starve triggers me but you know, it's awesome to see this stuff covered as it happened.
OUR MAJESTY PEACE LUV SPIRIT BE WITH HIM ,DID NOT TAKE REVENGE ON THE ITALIAN PRISONERS OR THOSE ON THE RUN.AND HE INVITED ERITREA TO REUNITE AND JOIN THE UNITED STATES OF AFRICA. AND TO REPENT FOR FIGHTING AMONG THEM SELVES, AND BE ONE NATION WITH MANY TRIBES IN PEACE GUIDED BY THE HOLY CHURCH. GREAT MAN AND KINGLY CHARACTER WE CAN STILL ALL TRY TO EMULATE HIM FOR THE MORAL FIBER, THE WORLD NEEDS, ALL MEN TO ADOPT FOR A JUST WORLD?
The revolution brought death, hunger, civil wars, tribal problems, poverty, ...... Ethiopian people got nothing out of it. Everyone is complaining about paying money for landlords, but that is tax. You can’t live without paying tax. Why everyone is complaining about paying to the landlord? Why everyone is stupid in Ethiopia?
LOOK AFTER EACH OTHER IN THE COMMUNITIES STOP FIGHTING. SHARE, TAX IS FOR A CITY THAT RUNS ON ROMAN CAESARS COINS SYSTEM. Ethiopia SHOULD RUN FROM THE CHURCH DOWN AS IN ANCIENT DAYS BAR-TA AND TRADE. bIT COIN ,
TAXES ARE NOT PROFITS TAXES ARE TO GO BACK INTO THE COMMUNITY TO DEVELOP SELF EMPLOYMENT ROADS LIGHTING NOT FOR LANDLORDS TO POCKET. TAX IS A WESTERN DEVICE BUT IT SHOULD BE USED IN A WAY THAT BENEFITS THE LANDLORD AND THE COMMUNITY DO YOU NOT GET IT YET? DO NOT FOLLOW USA UK FRANCE YOU WILL END THE SAME IN A MESS AS EUROPE IS NOW. TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS HAVE BEEN STOLEN FROM AFRICA EVERY DAY THAT IS WHY YOU HAVE IT HARD. AFRICA HAS ALL THE WORLD NEEDS ALL THE RAW MATERIALS. THEY EVEN TAKE DEAD AFRICAN BODIES AND STICK IT IN A GLASS CASE FOR THEIR CHILDREN TO DEAD PEOPLE NICE DAY OUT YEAH.WAKE UP

"Their revolution is so radical that they sometimes fight the police and bureaucracy... critics claim the revolution is loosening anarchy upon the land." Except the problem was that they didn't keep it anarchy (if any was actually there in the beginning). It was the state, police, and bureaucracy that went on to do its brutal reign of terror as usual when revolutions are directed by governments. Funny how Western capitalist media expects the people to let the government take control of their revolution when that's the exact reason so many revolutions in history are needlessly bloody and result in tyranny.
Please! my grand father was a police man he was not a land Lord. By his more ages of years my grand father served his country at the borders area of the regions he had earned his salary monthly from the government as any of others government workers. At the end of his working age he came to city to buy land and he bought lands to build houses by his collected money of his work but after the failure of the regime the Derege government took my grand father's houses and his others wealths then he became very poor we faced many crisis and droughts still we are suffering by the lack of freedom.
Your grandfather’s story is the story of Ethiopia. Derg ruined the nation in so many ways, its effects are still affecting Ethiopian thinking and politics. That’s one period in our history that I seriously wish never happened. But I’m sure it had to. Why can’t we catch ourselves and turn things around when they start to fall apart? Why do we go down a ruined path down to the last inch?
Removing farmers from their land Making them squarters is the worst Mistake any leader can Make, President William Ruto strengthend the Capacity of kenyans farmers to increase Production
Some politician still need to bring these sufferings . But now under the new federal Ethiopia the Alaba and the silte people govern by themselves. The people confirmed it will be the question of death and lifeif the old one country, one flag and one religion politics or the Citizenship politics. That’s disappear once and for all from the soil of Ethiopia
Bro you sound like ur still mentally stuck in the past lol no Ethiopian wants feudalism or የዘውድ ስርአት to return but you can’t stop us from admiring our history and our magnificent kings. Like king menilik who led the Ethiopian army to victory against Italy.
@Bani Saho so your name is bani lol i expect nothing less from a bani lol a good person would never discredit ones religon,go in peace bani lol thats a funny name
The worst time ever Ethiopian people had experienced was the era of illiterate Hailesilase which was claimed lost of millions of people life from famine. However his relatives are still trying to deny this situation wasn’t happening in the country.

@@MrDessirius hallo ! Isaiah 8:19-22 "The Darkness Turns to Light 19When someone tells you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living? 20Consult God’s instruction and the testimony of warning. If anyone does not speak according to this word, they have no light of dawn. 21Distressed and hungry, they will roam through the land; when they are famished, they will become enraged and, looking upward, will curse their king and their God. 22Then they will look toward the earth and see only distress and darkness and fearful gloom, and they will be thrust into utter darkness.
As a grand son of the peasants i am thankful for the revolution since with out the Ethiopian revolution i might have been under the massive suppression of the Feuds. The only thing is they could have followed Nationalization and Collectivization method of Sir Clement Attlee of British Labor party rather than following that of China.

Haile Selassie overthrow was inevitable. You can't maintain a feudal society in the 20th century where certain sections of populations didn't even have the rights to go to school. I always admired him until I read about his (mis)rule and how he maintained Ethiopia's feudal structure such as the entitled landlords and even slavery! Mengistu saved Ethiopia from perpetual backwardness. He midwifed Ethiopia's path into modernity in spite of his mistakes & brutality. The TPLF, in spite of its terror and nepotism, progressed it even farther. Ethiopia will eventually become the most powerful modern and wealthiest African state like it was always destined to be and two much hated forces will be to thank for that: The DERG and the TPLF. One smashed feudalism and the other smashed socialism and ushered in free-market economy.
Kienyeji Chicken That's not true. Haile Selassie was a strong supporter of education. He was constantly focusing his budget on education and modernization. Trust me he mistreated no one, the problem is that modernization happened to quickly. I know this because my great uncle was one of the 50 people killed with no trial by Mengustu Haile Mariam after Haile Selassie's deposal in 1974. Haile Selassie did so much for us and yet we let him go. So sad... he was murdered along with millions of others under tplf and derg.

Watching this made me hate Derg and woyane even more. Derg lost sight of the big picture and dismissed it's promise of making people's lives better. Derg turned it's back on the people giving woyane the advantage to spread lies about the history of Ethiopia. There after, woyane came preaching people were not allowed to speak their ethnic languages and so forth, yet, we see soldiers using translators to communicate with other ethinic groups here. I heard translators of Afar and gurage. Woyane didn't solve anything at all with fedralism. It actually barried our problem deeper away from solutions. Just like the Feudal system took what belonged to the poor and gave it to the wealthy. Woyane elites and associates stole what doesn't belong to them from the poor in billions. Derg came and left and Meles came and passed, the people are still dirt poor. In rural Ethiopia things are worse today than they were back in those days. That's a fact. Mengistu and Meles loved power more than anything else. If you go to rural tigray and Amhara region today, the level of povery is second to none. People, please, let's change the way we look at ourselves. We come from a line of great kings and queens. Our forefathers were great without a doubt! But ( us) their children are worthless big mouth assholes. በጉራ ያበጥን ውስጠ ባዶ ጉዶች. Our politicians are egotistical demagogues. We the people are self-centered hypocrites. The almighty give us the wisdom to learn and wise up before it's too late.
@ Bini zmelekot Hi Bini, I strongly share the sentiments you expressed regarding our political leaders and us ourselves for the most part, except where you said in rural Ethiopia things are now worse than they were. That is NOT facts. Still dirt poor, I agree but EPRDF had accomplished undeniable and palpable changes in rural Ethiopia for all its other faults. Life expectancy, health and well-being in general has improved exponentially in our life times and we’re not even that old :) What do you think about the current situation, I wonder..
@@girumzemichael704 I'm not about taking away accomplishments made by anyone. I do know they have made improvements on childhood mortality and women rights, but when it come to improving the economy of the farmers, not so much. What I have is an eyewitness report. I was talking about the deep level of poverty I have witnessed with my own eyes. Forget about the their report tainted with lies. How can anyone tell you malnourished kids of these farmers are doing better? You look at these kids they look like they are five and six years olds when they're nine and ten. All that stolen billions of dollars that got shipped out of the country to foreign banks could have been used to help change their lives. All that happend under their watch. Today they hold Abiy responsible for everything that happens under the sun. That would have been ok by me if they had held themselves to the same standards, but they don't. For every bad thing that happened under woyane, they somehow manage to blame someone else for it. They have never taken responsibility for any mess ups they have created under their watch at all, nor did they apologize for it.
@@binizmelekot2911 Fair enough; one thing I really want to get from a reasonable person like you though is what these billions of dollars in foreign banks accusations are based on. I really mean that, I want to know. The other thing, when we talk about admission of mistakes and apologies, it’s Abiy who I see from day one of his rise to power who plays the boogeyman tirelessly, exhaustingly and very manipulatively. Correct me if I’m wrong. Not to mention that he and the most prominent of cronies WERE TPLF-EPRDF people. I’ve heard that TPLF people have admitted that they had been ‘rotten’? Please share a link to that ‘admission’ if you know what I’m talking about and also what you understand by it.
HIM was a good person. Look at us today, the TPLF tigray gangs are multi-billionaire but much more people are in hunger 😢 And these same people blame HIM because he ate cake once while they party every night.
Ethiopia was a shithole under Haile Selassie. The TPLF was corrupt but at least they helped built schools, develop the infrastructure and boost the economy for 15 years. What did Haile Selassie do to develop Ethiopia? Haile Selassie was a feudal dictator that murdered & starved Ethiopians and subjected non-Amharas to oppression. Ask any Eritrean, Tigrean, Oromo, Somali, Gurage, etc. and they'll tell you the same. You Amhara racists can't handle the truth.
Nahom Wos he created the conditions of the famine in fact the wello and Amhara famine killed 1,200,000 people. Many of the first groups of Tigrayan emancipation had a JUSTIFIABLE cause but after the revolution the Derg was helping every even had tigrayans in the the government like Teagaye Dinka , one of Ethiopia’s prime minister during Mengistu’s government.
Young Forever lol the funny thing about you guys are the only poor and ignorant in the whole ethiopia. No one is complaining about amharas in Ethiopia but you guys try to convince them but it ain’t work out because of the almighty god. Both menilik and Selassie are the pride of ethiopia. They achieve the greatest goal in Ethiopia its a well known fact around the world. I know mengistu might not be a good person but he was just a bad guy. Also, He didn’t stolen anything from his people(he was loyal). He didn’t kill any people based on their ethnicity . We know He gave power fairly that’s why he loses. There were a lot of oromo, Eritrean, Tigrinya, southern soldiers as much as amharas. The dereg kills them equally. When we come to tplf they brought their uneducated peoples all the way up to leaders everywhere, they kill everyone inside (soul) and outside. We all work the same work in ethio but the tigrians look more successful u think that’s because of their knowledge lol we know even the educated tigriayans are not the educated one it’s well known fact around the world. You might seen the change that abiy brought within short time that’s what educated person do. But, They hide in one place, they propaganda the innocent people and gathered in jail that’s what uneducated person do and that’s the place for them it’s written in bible tho. I feel bad for you because u are ashamed to use your real name now forever young. You are forever buried just bark there is no shortcut from now that’s gods plan. He is always above everything. Eritrean feel bad for us?? Lol u saw what happens when they separate from ethio that will happen if you try to separate from Ethiopia. We didn’t get any benefit from keeping you guys it’s true but u guys are gonna get a lot from us. Plus meles aint shit cuz he didn’t do anything good. Something might pop up in your mind like the abay dam or peace security.., (because u know only what u allow your mind to know but u have to accept the real fact now) but if you want to know about the dam read old books about Ethiopia, google Haile Selassie old dollar note(not birr) dollar note!. In the back of Selassie dollar note you will find the actual design of the abay dam. It was designed and planed in back day. The tplf peace security huh its funny even it didn’t insecure his own peace but it acts like he is securing somalia 😞 the fact isto stole somalia resource as peace guard. I feel like u didn’t reed books that much let me share you some facts in back days Ethiopians went to Korea and Congo as a peace guard and they defeat not terrorists but they defeat a colonial power within months and only 3-5 people injured and dead. This means the power of tplf aint shit cuz (it took a long time since they reside in Somalia (not keeping the peace) reside! But we know that it has power when it comes to good people. tplf power is to bomb in the middle of capital city and kill gambella innocents, to kill Oromiya peoples, to torture opponents , to kill bahrdar university students, Amhara farmers and its main job is to rape. The first gay person in Ethiopia may be that ignorant person who rape that kid in jail. If u hate menileiek and Haile Selassie u have to hate adwa victory day and African Uniontoo. Even the whole Africa respect them.We defeat Italians and some betrayal ones in their home adwa, But there are some good Tigrinya back on those day. The amazing thing is you guys think that Haile Selassie come to power by amharas but it’s by hadere peoples and oromias by defeating the wello (lij eyasus dad and lij eyasu) and other amharas. While some betrayed with Italians u know wat I mean. “Bechawen ye bella, Ee bechawen yemotal “ ye Amhara teret ye ewnet endemisera ahun yegebahal! Ignorant becha menilik, tewodros and Haile Selassie contributes a lot to civilized Ethiopia. They brought telephones, light , modern army, navy, school, university, cars, train, build port, they build Africa union... they build a lot of things from scratch without no credit. Even Haile Selassie’s system give meles an opportunity to be educated. However, he stop attending and dive into politics. A lot of people might think he is educated person but everyone has their own measuring criteria. The leader who torture and steal money from his own country doesn’t looks educated. ( he begged money by his people and use that money to personal use ) all we have to know is god is fear all the time he taught us what we’ve to know. We might forgive u but we are not gonna never forget what you did to us. I’m out 🖐
Young Forever you ask what did The Emperor do for Ethiopia? You need to do research before you condemn persons whom are highly regarded and deserving of much respect. The Emperor did much for Ethiopia, He was on a mission to modernize the country, gave Ethiopia her first constitution, created industry and so much more. The Emperor is the type leader every nation needs because there would be no war and all the world's problems would be solved. The Emperor's passion was education, he made sure to educate the youths to run Ethiopia. This video is very biased and is nothing but propaganda for those whom do not do their own research but rather believe, accept and pass on misinformation! The truth is out there and it will be the victor in the end. This "revolution" did nothing but create confusion and suffering while bringing to end the greatest kingdom the world has ever known! Long live Emperor Haile Selassie I ( Ras-Tafari) thank You for being such a great example and for your wise words and teachings.
She wrote: the Siltae people sacrificed a lot for Ethiopia; it just not recognized enough including chasing the fascist Italian Mussolini’s army. At the beginning of this doc, Siltae, Guragae, Oromo & at the end Affaar people were shown here. Thanks great documentary. Things are a lot better now for these people than under the tyranny of monarchy.
After (the powers that be with the help of ) British television broadcasted images of the Emperor feeding his palace lions with meat juxtapositioned with images of rotting corpses and dying and starving peasants in northern Ethiopia. They had effectively orchestrated a coup. Jealous of the-never-conquered Ethiopia. But they themselves had engineered the famine by ruining the economy.
Rafael Stefania Thank you for the information. The West have done a lot both good and bad. My friend told me that the various immigrants coming to the West as friends and foe is karma, for all of the crimes of the West.
The fact that the emperor was feasting while thousands of poor people starved to death is just part of what caused the revolution, not British media showing it. You can't implement a feudal imperialist regime and not expect peasants and non highlanders to demand their rights.
It is written that they cast lots for his garments. The military symbolizes Roman soldiers of Babylon those who overthrow Christ Haile Selassie 1st. Cushites Ethiopians wake up and know your place in history
People that have, (WEALTHY) should give to the people with little (POOR) or nothing because this then create a long term relationship in which can lead to longevity in or society. Otherwise the people with little (POOR) will then reach out to get whatever it is they need to survive as it is the only thing they can do if the leaders make it about survival. think about that for a second and let it soak in!
Loving this one thanks for sharing very important information giving thanks blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work
Tigrain people liberation front (TPLF) make the biggest mess ever in Ethipian history. TPLF did any crimes you can think of on Ethiopia. Amharas was their primary target
That was the western intercept Ethiopia to fall apart. Ethiopian,they didn’t know God elected king has a vision to cross poverty by education was the way and he did work on that hard but his people did not know and risen to remove him and they did. Now look what happened nowadays. Selasse i , did not know there is starvation and they hide . At that time, food was very cheap but those who needed to remove the King is that the only reason to do is people who live in country side cut the food delivery, cut the trees 🌳 not to get rain 🌧, cut water supply and destroy road not to drive vehicles. Finally, they succeeded and the 👑 removal movement rises up day today.
Some of the people that are making comments are not comprehending the reality that jah Rasta was put there by the queen of England just like Jesus was put into play by the emperor of Rome
@@samrawitkenfe2876 You act like Amharas aren’t being killed in benshengul-gumuz and Oromia region. Of course tigrayans should be responsible to rule themselves. But all this talk of breaking away from Ethiopia is nonsense and promotes Balkanization. Even if there were independent nations formed around “ethnicity” or “tribes” there will still be political conflict. By the way, Mengistu killed tigrayans during the civil war yes but he killed everyone who didn’t fall in line with him or failed him and that included his generals, other derg members, EPRP, MEISON, and college students during the red terror. There were Amharas in these groups. In fact, EPLF and TPLF were surprised themselves of how brutal he was against his own military commandment, Mengistu was killing his own generals for failing battles as well as those who in the countryside who were not following conscription into the army. I never understood why followers of TPLF act as if they were targeted for being tigrayans during this time when the derg was killing whoever was against them. They gunned down 60 members and ministers of Haile Selassies own government for crying out loud...jeeze
@@cooliomcgee5299 idek WHERE u get Amharas from cuz not once did I mention them. but since ur on the topic of Balkanization, that’s EXACTLY what I hope to happen. There’s no hope for Ethiopia. Tegaru have freaking generational trauma from this dumb country. I grow up in a time of war. My mom grew up in a time of war. My grandmother grew up in a time of war. As far as I’m concerned and know, tegaru are actually pretty much done with Ethiopia, we want nothing to do with it, and calling ourselves Ethiopian is a disrespect to us at this point. And on the topic of Mengistu, yes he killed anyone who didn’t fall in line with him but it’s factual that he INDISCRIMINATELY TARGETED TIGRAY. he even called us beggars and blamed us for the global view of Ethiopia being a country of starvation in a speech back in the 80’s. Don’t try and switch it up, the hate speech was there since menelik. It was there with haile Selassie, it’s there with Mengistu and it’s still here today. I’m not arguing with someone who’s not gonna accept that undeniable truth. have a nice day🏃🏾♀️
@@samrawitkenfe2876 If Ethiopia does split up then so be it, that’s the reason why my parents and my grandparents left right before the revolution happened sensing that something sinister was stirring in the country. The derg was bad for the country, no doubt, it would’ve been better if it at least transitioned from a monarchy to a unitary democratic republic where all ethnic groups of Ethiopia were equal to one another without the senseless violence spurred on by communist purges and civil war. I’m just thankful that a country like the US exists. At least the US doesn’t base their constitution on ethnonationalism/ethnic nationalism however you wanna call it. The vision was that Ethiopia would have grown into a multi-ethnic country without centralization surrounding one ethnic group. I don’t even know if there is one country in sub-Saharan Africa outside of Somalia that’s based on one homogenous ethnic group. But as seen in “homogenous” Somalia, even if Ethiopia splits into various ethnic nation states I guarantee there’ll still be a conflict over something else as is the case with other countries in Africa such as South Sudan who split from Sudan because of Arab dominance but why is there still conflict there? Because of tribal/ethnic politics.. But since it seems that the majority of the TPLF and their supporters have their minds made up then have fun having a Tigray nation/country or whatever. Peace.
...hail sellasi was a wise man and had a great vision for Africa.. but how could he rise to power and keep a system of exploitive oppressive powers by the landlords, this to me should have been absolutely zero tolerance. Very sad to see people suffer for know reason.... 83 tribes of Ethiopia, this should have been dealt with by hailee selassie.
wow, what a great piece of propaganda, but they left the stature untouched-quite mystic, another Selassie will crash the wicked propagandists once and for all in another bout one of these fine days,
Emperor Haile Selassie I Modernise Ethiopia in the 40s and 50s with the Latest Medical and Educational Facilitiesl while the Rest of Africa was Under Foreign Occupation. When the Italians Invade Ethiopia 1936, some Province in the North, Supported the Invaders. If they Suffer from famine and Drought years later, it could be Divine Retribution. Another Problem whith Black People is that they never Question the Motives behind the Reports of some of those Demonic Foreign Journalists. Because of their Jealousy, they will always tell Lies to try and Undermine a Great African Leader
This was the time when Ethiopia has start sinking they overthrow the 3000 years regime and and then become disorganized and divided in language and ethinicity...
Bulls hit the people of Ethiopia through him from power by rising up? He was giving other ethnic land to Amara, he also force assimilate culture, language & treadation, last population control by allowing famine & huge tax the poor can't reford to pay.
Language & ethnicity was created to make it harder for one ethnic to dominate in land stealing & force unity instated freedom for the. people to choose their own future. Read book before talking bullshit
The same chemical weapons were used by the German in Belgium and by the Allies in France in WW1, but there was no famine. There is no link between '70s famine and the (still heinous) invasion of Ethiopia in 1935.
he said 60 people TOTAL then as if they were different then people “about 300 christian laborers were slaughtered “ am i mistaken or was he not acknowledging the christians as “ people “. i don’t want to believe this please explain. to him christians WERE PEOPLE right???? 😢 we’re all people deserving representation and dignity. not death. not slaughter. 20:51
Ethiopia is a perfect example for me! Only the LORD gives I a home I love. Long live the republic! I love you ET!!! Im American and your my foundation!
The Ethiopians made such a drastic mistake with this revolution losing their great, magnificent emperor as well as venturing into diabolical Marxism. Pray for Ethiopia.

The bad news the peasants still works for free and owns nothing. I wish if they were “Think twice before they cut once.”
The bad news was from long time of famine-despotic regime of Selssie (Ras Tafari Makonnen)
They were still starving under the feudal system. This is the natural reaction to years snd years of oppression. Governments had the power to change what happened, but they failed.
@@BrorealeK They weren't starving under Feudalism, rather the average of rural Ethiopians are much more malnourished then in those times.
I returned to Ethiopia from England to help rally the resistance. The British began their own invasion in January 1941, and the last organized Italian resistance in Italian East Africa surrendered in November 1941. The British restored Ethiopia’s independence.

Wow! What an invaluable footage. Thank you! I have never seen any recordings of “meret le arashu” or “edger be h’bret” in action though it’s an important part of my family’s and our nation’s history. And to see it from the perspective of Si’lte and Afar. I never even considered that the revolution had touched Afar. The result of our poor education, despite my reading… I bet those elders lost their youth to the beloved revolution soon enough like the rest of Ethiopia..
Imagine what they did to the somali camel herder in the west..decimated
you really felt What I felt, it's an invaluable piece. To see the revolution in the eyes of the people that are periphery to the central politics.
This shows you how brutal it was under feudalism. Yet many Ethiopians want it back.
They are indoctrinated fanos
The Emperor was an example of being out of touch. One story had him dying on a operating Table from botched surgery and making him looked like his death occured in an apartment of his former palace.
Very much the honeymoon period of the revolution captured here, things would turn sour very soon! Teferi Benti would of course be executed and the uneasy collaboration between the student activists and the military would give way to what was effectively a civil war between the two (the so-called 'Red Terror'). It's interesting to hear about the revolution in the Afar Region, something not really touched upon in most histories of this period - no mention of Eritrea though, surprisingly!
Eritrea and the food-as-a-weapon policy of the military communist regime are well covered in another Thames episode released around this time :) well, not smiley face since watching children starve triggers me but you know, it's awesome to see this stuff covered as it happened.

"Their revolution is so radical that they sometimes fight the police and bureaucracy... critics claim the revolution is loosening anarchy upon the land." Except the problem was that they didn't keep it anarchy (if any was actually there in the beginning). It was the state, police, and bureaucracy that went on to do its brutal reign of terror as usual when revolutions are directed by governments. Funny how Western capitalist media expects the people to let the government take control of their revolution when that's the exact reason so many revolutions in history are needlessly bloody and result in tyranny.
Please! my grand father was a police man he was not a land Lord. By his more ages of years my grand father served his country at the borders area of the regions he had earned his salary monthly from the government as any of others government workers. At the end of his working age he came to city to buy land and he bought lands to build houses by his collected money of his work but after the failure of the regime the Derege government took my grand father's houses and his others wealths then he became very poor we faced many crisis and droughts still we are suffering by the lack of freedom.
Your grandfather’s story is the story of Ethiopia. Derg ruined the nation in so many ways, its effects are still affecting Ethiopian thinking and politics. That’s one period in our history that I seriously wish never happened. But I’m sure it had to. Why can’t we catch ourselves and turn things around when they start to fall apart? Why do we go down a ruined path down to the last inch?

Haile Selassie overthrow was inevitable. You can't maintain a feudal society in the 20th century where certain sections of populations didn't even have the rights to go to school. I always admired him until I read about his (mis)rule and how he maintained Ethiopia's feudal structure such as the entitled landlords and even slavery! Mengistu saved Ethiopia from perpetual backwardness. He midwifed Ethiopia's path into modernity in spite of his mistakes & brutality. The TPLF, in spite of its terror and nepotism, progressed it even farther. Ethiopia will eventually become the most powerful modern and wealthiest African state like it was always destined to be and two much hated forces will be to thank for that: The DERG and the TPLF. One smashed feudalism and the other smashed socialism and ushered in free-market economy.
May the good god have mercy on you all.....you know not what you say
Kienyeji Chicken That's not true. Haile Selassie was a strong supporter of education. He was constantly focusing his budget on education and modernization. Trust me he mistreated no one, the problem is that modernization happened to quickly. I know this because my great uncle was one of the 50 people killed with no trial by Mengustu Haile Mariam after Haile Selassie's deposal in 1974. Haile Selassie did so much for us and yet we let him go. So sad... he was murdered along with millions of others under tplf and derg.

Watching this made me hate Derg and woyane even more. Derg lost sight of the big picture and dismissed it's promise of making people's lives better. Derg turned it's back on the people giving woyane the advantage to spread lies about the history of Ethiopia. There after, woyane came preaching people were not allowed to speak their ethnic languages and so forth, yet, we see soldiers using translators to communicate with other ethinic groups here. I heard translators of Afar and gurage. Woyane didn't solve anything at all with fedralism. It actually barried our problem deeper away from solutions. Just like the Feudal system took what belonged to the poor and gave it to the wealthy. Woyane elites and associates stole what doesn't belong to them from the poor in billions. Derg came and left and Meles came and passed, the people are still dirt poor. In rural Ethiopia things are worse today than they were back in those days. That's a fact. Mengistu and Meles loved power more than anything else. If you go to rural tigray and Amhara region today, the level of povery is second to none. People, please, let's change the way we look at ourselves. We come from a line of great kings and queens. Our forefathers were great without a doubt! But ( us) their children are worthless big mouth assholes. በጉራ ያበጥን ውስጠ ባዶ ጉዶች. Our politicians are egotistical demagogues. We the people are self-centered hypocrites. The almighty give us the wisdom to learn and wise up before it's too late.
@ Bini zmelekot Hi Bini, I strongly share the sentiments you expressed regarding our political leaders and us ourselves for the most part, except where you said in rural Ethiopia things are now worse than they were. That is NOT facts. Still dirt poor, I agree but EPRDF had accomplished undeniable and palpable changes in rural Ethiopia for all its other faults. Life expectancy, health and well-being in general has improved exponentially in our life times and we’re not even that old :) What do you think about the current situation, I wonder..
@@girumzemichael704 I'm not about taking away accomplishments made by anyone. I do know they have made improvements on childhood mortality and women rights, but when it come to improving the economy of the farmers, not so much. What I have is an eyewitness report. I was talking about the deep level of poverty I have witnessed with my own eyes. Forget about the their report tainted with lies. How can anyone tell you malnourished kids of these farmers are doing better? You look at these kids they look like they are five and six years olds when they're nine and ten.
All that stolen billions of dollars that got shipped out of the country to foreign banks could have been used to help change their lives. All that happend under their watch. Today they hold Abiy responsible for everything that happens under the sun. That would have been ok by me if they had held themselves to the same standards, but they don't. For every bad thing that happened under woyane, they somehow manage to blame someone else for it. They have never taken responsibility for any mess ups they have created under their watch at all, nor did they apologize for it.
@@binizmelekot2911 Fair enough; one thing I really want to get from a reasonable person like you though is what these billions of dollars in foreign banks accusations are based on. I really mean that, I want to know. The other thing, when we talk about admission of mistakes and apologies, it’s Abiy who I see from day one of his rise to power who plays the boogeyman tirelessly, exhaustingly and very manipulatively. Correct me if I’m wrong. Not to mention that he and the most prominent of cronies WERE TPLF-EPRDF people. I’ve heard that TPLF people have admitted that they had been ‘rotten’? Please share a link to that ‘admission’ if you know what I’m talking about and also what you understand by it.
Now Abiy and PP is destroying the faith and unity of Ethiopia.
Why refer to these people as peasants ?
Tnx God now Its Past 😢
The famine made the empire vulnerable to the revolution.
HIM was a good person. Look at us today, the TPLF tigray gangs are multi-billionaire but much more people are in hunger 😢
And these same people blame HIM because he ate cake once while they party every night.
Ethiopia was a shithole under Haile Selassie. The TPLF was corrupt but at least they helped built schools, develop the infrastructure and boost the economy for 15 years. What did Haile Selassie do to develop Ethiopia? Haile Selassie was a feudal dictator that murdered & starved Ethiopians and subjected non-Amharas to oppression. Ask any Eritrean, Tigrean, Oromo, Somali, Gurage, etc. and they'll tell you the same. You Amhara racists can't handle the truth.
@@ilijeganu273 Nupuqi Om-Re Khonectics will guide you.
Nahom Wos he created the conditions of the famine in fact the wello and Amhara famine killed 1,200,000 people. Many of the first groups of Tigrayan emancipation had a JUSTIFIABLE cause but after the revolution the Derg was helping every even had tigrayans in the the government like Teagaye Dinka , one of Ethiopia’s prime minister during Mengistu’s government.
Young Forever lol the funny thing about you guys are the only poor and ignorant in the whole ethiopia. No one is complaining about amharas in Ethiopia but you guys try to convince them but it ain’t work out because of the almighty god. Both menilik and Selassie are the pride of ethiopia. They achieve the greatest goal in Ethiopia its a well known fact around the world. I know mengistu might not be a good person but he was just a bad guy. Also, He didn’t stolen anything from his people(he was loyal). He didn’t kill any people based on their ethnicity . We know He gave power fairly that’s why he loses. There were a lot of oromo, Eritrean, Tigrinya, southern soldiers as much as amharas. The dereg kills them equally. When we come to tplf they brought their uneducated peoples all the way up to leaders everywhere, they kill everyone inside (soul) and outside. We all work the same work in ethio but the tigrians look more successful u think that’s because of their knowledge lol we know even the educated tigriayans are not the educated one it’s well known fact around the world. You might seen the change that abiy brought within short time that’s what educated person do. But, They hide in one place, they propaganda the innocent people and gathered in jail that’s what uneducated person do and that’s the place for them it’s written in bible tho. I feel bad for you because u are ashamed to use your real name now forever young. You are forever buried just bark there is no shortcut from now that’s gods plan. He is always above everything. Eritrean feel bad for us?? Lol u saw what happens when they separate from ethio that will happen if you try to separate from Ethiopia. We didn’t get any benefit from keeping you guys it’s true but u guys are gonna get a lot from us. Plus meles aint shit cuz he didn’t do anything good. Something might pop up in your mind like the abay dam or peace security.., (because u know only what u allow your mind to know but u have to accept the real fact now) but if you want to know about the dam read old books about Ethiopia, google Haile Selassie old dollar note(not birr) dollar note!. In the back of Selassie dollar note you will find the actual design of the abay dam. It was designed and planed in back day. The tplf peace security huh its funny even it didn’t insecure his own peace but it acts like he is securing somalia 😞 the fact isto stole somalia resource as peace guard. I feel like u didn’t reed books that much let me share you some facts in back days Ethiopians went to Korea and Congo as a peace guard and they defeat not terrorists but they defeat a colonial power within months and only 3-5 people injured and dead. This means the power of tplf aint shit cuz (it took a long time since they reside in Somalia (not keeping the peace) reside! But we know that it has power when it comes to good people. tplf power is to bomb in the middle of capital city and kill gambella innocents, to kill Oromiya peoples, to torture opponents , to kill bahrdar university students, Amhara farmers and its main job is to rape. The first gay person in Ethiopia may be that ignorant person who rape that kid in jail. If u hate menileiek and Haile Selassie u have to hate adwa victory day and African Uniontoo. Even the whole Africa respect them.We defeat Italians and some betrayal ones in their home adwa, But there are some good Tigrinya back on those day. The amazing thing is you guys think that Haile Selassie come to power by amharas but it’s by hadere peoples and oromias by defeating the wello (lij eyasus dad and lij eyasu) and other amharas. While some betrayed with Italians u know wat I mean. “Bechawen ye bella, Ee bechawen yemotal “ ye Amhara teret ye ewnet endemisera ahun yegebahal! Ignorant becha menilik, tewodros and Haile Selassie contributes a lot to civilized Ethiopia. They brought telephones, light , modern army, navy, school, university, cars, train, build port, they build Africa union... they build a lot of things from scratch without no credit. Even Haile Selassie’s system give meles an opportunity to be educated. However, he stop attending and dive into politics. A lot of people might think he is educated person but everyone has their own measuring criteria. The leader who torture and steal money from his own country doesn’t looks educated. ( he begged money by his people and use that money to personal use ) all we have to know is god is fear all the time he taught us what we’ve to know. We might forgive u but we are not gonna never forget what you did to us. I’m out 🖐
Young Forever you ask what did The Emperor do for Ethiopia? You need to do research before you condemn persons whom are highly regarded and deserving of much respect. The Emperor did much for Ethiopia, He was on a mission to modernize the country, gave Ethiopia her first constitution, created industry and so much more.
The Emperor is the type leader every nation needs because there would be no war and all the world's problems would be solved. The Emperor's passion was education, he made sure to educate the youths to run Ethiopia. This video is very biased and is nothing but propaganda for those whom do not do their own research but rather believe, accept and pass on misinformation! The truth is out there and it will be the victor in the end. This "revolution" did nothing but create confusion and suffering while bringing to end the greatest kingdom the world has ever known!

After (the powers that be with the help of ) British television broadcasted images of the Emperor feeding his palace lions with meat juxtapositioned with images of rotting corpses and dying and starving peasants in northern Ethiopia. They had effectively orchestrated a coup. Jealous of the-never-conquered Ethiopia. But they themselves had engineered the famine by ruining the economy.
Rafael Stefania Thank you for the information. The West have done a lot both good and bad. My friend told me that the various immigrants coming to the West as friends and foe is karma, for all of the crimes of the West.
Just give up the ark i think they'll let it go
The fact that the emperor was feasting while thousands of poor people starved to death is just part of what caused the revolution, not British media showing it. You can't implement a feudal imperialist regime and not expect peasants and non highlanders to demand their rights.
As usual the student movement acts but fails to fully understand what the peasants need. Very sad but a great document of a time and place.

THE BIG Long live the King of kings. Famine man shall not live by bread alone.
THE BIG there was more famine under mengustu
The BIG Remember the we are the world song? it was in the revolutionists era and then again after that it has happened twice.
Jesse Brennan the famine was originally in wolo which is quite far from Ogaden. And by the way the Ogaden famine was the socialist governments fault.
Then Derg killed them all.
Oh God
Only God has to give dear.
That was the western intercept Ethiopia to fall apart. Ethiopian,they didn’t know God elected king has a vision to cross poverty by education was the way and he did work on that hard but his people did not know and risen to remove him and they did. Now look what happened nowadays. Selasse i , did not know there is starvation and they hide . At that time, food was very cheap but those who needed to remove the King is that the only reason to do is people who live in country side cut the food delivery, cut the trees 🌳 not to get rain 🌧, cut water supply and destroy road not to drive vehicles. Finally, they succeeded and the 👑 removal movement rises up day today.
I used to like Hailselassie now I hate him for suffering my beloved countrymen
Remember the story of the seeds that fell in different parts of the ground...don't be like the one which fell on rocky ground
Some of the people that are making comments are not comprehending the reality that jah Rasta was put there by the queen of England just like Jesus was put into play by the emperor of Rome
unity is their success.
such a sad time for tigriyans this year. Literally have to die for our rights again just like 45 years ago😕
Wait you guys like Haile Sellasie?
Abu Haji what? 45 years ago, we were fighting Mengistu. And now we’re doing this same thing againz
@@samrawitkenfe2876 You act like Amharas aren’t being killed in benshengul-gumuz and Oromia region. Of course tigrayans should be responsible to rule themselves. But all this talk of breaking away from Ethiopia is nonsense and promotes Balkanization. Even if there were independent nations formed around “ethnicity” or “tribes” there will still be political conflict. By the way, Mengistu killed tigrayans during the civil war yes but he killed everyone who didn’t fall in line with him or failed him and that included his generals, other derg members, EPRP, MEISON, and college students during the red terror. There were Amharas in these groups. In fact, EPLF and TPLF were surprised themselves of how brutal he was against his own military commandment, Mengistu was killing his own generals for failing battles as well as those who in the countryside who were not following conscription into the army. I never understood why followers of TPLF act as if they were targeted for being tigrayans during this time when the derg was killing whoever was against them. They gunned down 60 members and ministers of Haile Selassies own government for crying out loud...jeeze
@@cooliomcgee5299 idek WHERE u get Amharas from cuz not once did I mention them. but since ur on the topic of Balkanization, that’s EXACTLY what I hope to happen. There’s no hope for Ethiopia. Tegaru have freaking generational trauma from this dumb country. I grow up in a time of war. My mom grew up in a time of war. My grandmother grew up in a time of war. As far as I’m concerned and know, tegaru are actually pretty much done with Ethiopia, we want nothing to do with it, and calling ourselves Ethiopian is a disrespect to us at this point. And on the topic of Mengistu, yes he killed anyone who didn’t fall in line with him but it’s factual that he INDISCRIMINATELY TARGETED TIGRAY. he even called us beggars and blamed us for the global view of Ethiopia being a country of starvation in a speech back in the 80’s. Don’t try and switch it up, the hate speech was there since menelik. It was there with haile Selassie, it’s there with Mengistu and it’s still here today. I’m not arguing with someone who’s not gonna accept that undeniable truth. have a nice day🏃🏾♀️
@@samrawitkenfe2876 If Ethiopia does split up then so be it, that’s the reason why my parents and my grandparents left right before the revolution happened sensing that something sinister was stirring in the country. The derg was bad for the country, no doubt, it would’ve been better if it at least transitioned from a monarchy to a unitary democratic republic where all ethnic groups of Ethiopia were equal to one another without the senseless violence spurred on by communist purges and civil war. I’m just thankful that a country like the US exists. At least the US doesn’t base their constitution on ethnonationalism/ethnic nationalism however you wanna call it. The vision was that Ethiopia would have grown into a multi-ethnic country without centralization surrounding one ethnic group. I don’t even know if there is one country in sub-Saharan Africa outside of Somalia that’s based on one homogenous ethnic group. But as seen in “homogenous” Somalia, even if Ethiopia splits into various ethnic nation states I guarantee there’ll still be a conflict over something else as is the case with other countries in Africa such as South Sudan who split from Sudan because of Arab dominance but why is there still conflict there? Because of tribal/ethnic politics.. But since it seems that the majority of the TPLF and their supporters have their minds made up then have fun having a Tigray nation/country or whatever. Peace.
...hail sellasi was a wise man and had a great vision for Africa.. but how could he rise to power and keep a system of exploitive oppressive powers by the landlords, this to me should have been absolutely zero tolerance. Very sad to see people suffer for know reason.... 83 tribes of Ethiopia, this should have been dealt with by hailee selassie.
garial marsh “we never knew the government existed or that we had any rights”
garial marsh Ethiopia is an empire
@@qaalid252 And what is soomaalia but territories invaded by them over 800 years?
There was absolutely nothing wise about him…lol
He kept that system because it benefitted him. He also was a major landlord in the country and got his wealth off the backs of the peasantry.
so this was before Mengistu came into the picture and fucked everything up?
Mengistu didn’t ruin anything it was gorvechov that ruined it when he signed off east Germany and end the ussr
THEY SHOW THIS.. BUT THEY DON'T SHOW BILLY GRAHAM IN GERMANY WITH THE EMPEROR
IF YOU LIVE IN GOD HOUSE AND YOU DON'T KNOW GOD YOU SHALL SUFFER.
what about Billy Graham he and selassie was the same sinful men that missed the mark of God.
Christianity is a disease
You don’t know about Haile Selassie more than an Ethiopian person. Your image of haile selassie is shaped by Bob Marley. Take a seat
But now it's a fantastic place to visit
wow, what a great piece of propaganda, but they left the stature untouched-quite mystic, another Selassie will crash the wicked propagandists once and for all in another bout one of these fine days,
very sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon ,jah bless ,
Imbecile
How did the Un respond to this genocide?
My people silte ❤❤❤❤
Wrong this is mangstu time
Emperor Haile Selassie I Modernise Ethiopia in the 40s and 50s with the Latest Medical and Educational Facilitiesl while the Rest of Africa was Under Foreign Occupation. When the Italians Invade Ethiopia 1936, some Province in the North, Supported the Invaders. If they Suffer from famine and Drought years later, it could be Divine Retribution. Another Problem whith Black People is that they never Question the Motives behind the Reports of some of those Demonic Foreign Journalists. Because of their Jealousy, they will always tell Lies to try and Undermine a Great African Leader
@@princeleevibes1892 God doesn't exist you bootlicker
@@MrDessirius keep your stupid-ass comment to yourself...your moronic comment is not needed here
This was the time when Ethiopia has start sinking they overthrow the 3000 years regime and and then become disorganized and divided in language and ethinicity...
Bulls hit the people of Ethiopia through him from power by rising up? He was giving other ethnic land to Amara, he also force assimilate culture, language & treadation, last population control by allowing famine & huge tax the poor can't reford to pay.
Language & ethnicity was created to make it harder for one ethnic to dominate in land stealing & force unity instated freedom for the. people to choose their own future. Read book before talking bullshit
Thomas ABABA: the most starved was the Wollo region. Aren’t they Amharas. I hate ignorant people like you. You burn in hell
Do you think a monarchy would work in Ethiopia in the 21st century? Beminih new gin yemitasbew?
Its one side to exagerated...all about Accusation nething change now even worest...
IT WILL GET BETTER AND THE PEOPLE WILL FORGIVE AND REPENT AND FIND PEACE FOR THE WORLD .
So it wasnt the chemical warfare Italy did to the land but it was the Emperor. How lost the person people were because they haven't eaten. Sad
Italian mustard gas was 35 years prior to the 1974/75 revolution/rebellion.
Their revolution brought the worst famine after them we had 2 famine incidents.
The same chemical weapons were used by the German in Belgium and by the Allies in France in WW1, but there was no famine. There is no link between '70s famine and the (still heinous) invasion of Ethiopia in 1935.
Fuck off Rasta filth
he said 60 people TOTAL then as if they were different then people “about 300 christian laborers were slaughtered “ am i mistaken or was he not acknowledging the christians as “ people “. i don’t want to believe this please explain. to him christians WERE PEOPLE right???? 😢 we’re all people deserving representation and dignity. not death. not slaughter. 20:51
Haile Selassie gave Ethiopia a foundation and the people of Ethiopia built on it. Very good story
Karl marx theory
Ethiopia is a perfect example for me! Only the LORD gives I a home I love. Long live the republic! I love you ET!!! Im American and your my foundation!
The Ethiopians made such a drastic mistake with this revolution losing their great, magnificent emperor as well as venturing into diabolical Marxism. Pray for Ethiopia.
Stupid
Burn just burn
He’s resting in piss
