Abstract:
Ethiopia's military history dates to the dawn of recorded history. During the Aksumite Kingdom, which emerged at the beginning of the Christian era, there were numerous military campaigns to the east, south, and west of Aksum. In the 6th century AD, an Aksumite army invaded the southern tip of Arabia. During the 1527-43 period, Ethiopian soldiers fought against Ahmed ibn Ibrahim el Ghazi (1506-43), who also was known as Ahmed Grãn, the ‘left handed’. He was an Islamic zealot who had declared a jihad against Ethiopia's Christians. Shortly after Gran's defeat, Ethiopia embarked upon a series of campaigns against the Galla (now known as Oromo) people who were seeking to invade northern Ethiopia from their southern homelands.

Abstract:
Egypt regards the Nile as a vital "Life Line". As such, the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam poses a significant threat to its national security, and thus, Egypt has to arrive at the most effective decision in order to remove this threat. Egypt embarked on a global diplomatic pressure designated to influence Ethiopia, backed by signals of relevant contributive acquisitions relevant to the Egyptian army's buildup: E.g., 30 Rafale jests from France in 2021 (following a former acquisition of 24 jets in 2015), 50 Mig-29Ms fighter jets in 2015 or 24 Sukhoi Su-35 in 2018, from Russia. This study finds that albeit the noted signals of massive quality acquisitions from new sponsors such as France or Russia due to a decrease of US armament from 47 percent of Egypt's arms imports between 2009-2014, to 14 percent between 2015-2020, due to sanctions by President Obama, following the deposing of President Morsi in 2013, the Egyptian army is bounded by military and economic restrains, effecting an arrival to efficient operative decisions in order to embark on a military response versus Ethiopia, should the diplomatic prism would not achieve its goal, of removing the potential threat on the Nile water flow. The identity of army buildup arms suppliers, weapons and markets, effects significantly the noted decision-making process

Abstract:
In the late 1970s, the Ethiopia-Eritrea conflict and the Ethiopia-Somalia border war over the Ogaden region has centered world attention on Soviet-Cuban activities in the Horn of Africa. Although the Somali army was defeated by the combined powers of the Ethiopians and the Soviet-Cuban forces in mid-March 1978, the tension between the two countries was still high. Among the other problems facing the region is that of the Eritrean struggle for self-determination.

Abstract:
From the reign of King Yekuno-Amlak (r. 1270–85) to that of Emperor Tewodros II (r. 1855–68), the army of Ethiopia, one of the East African counties, was divided into two major categories: The first category consisted of local militias under regional governors who had no special type of war combat training. In times of national crisis, they engaged in warfare only when the king called them. Immediately after battle, they were sent back to their regional base. The second category of the army was the royal army (chewa, from fourteenth to sixteenth centuries). Chewa was the regular army of the kings and many of its regiments were deployed in various regions of Ethiopia. It was established only for the purpose of military services, and the members of this army were not allowed to do any other work. This article examines the chewa military system and its dynamics in the medieval period of Ethiopia, roughly covering the period between fourteenth and sixteenth centuries.

Abstract:
In this article, the author aims to explore the place and role of Egyptian-Ethiopian relations during the Suez Crisis in US geopolitical strategies. The scientific novelty lies in a comprehensive analysis of the impact of the Suez Crisis on the East African region in the context of US foreign policy. Research methods. Historical-genetic method is used in the article, which gave an opportunity to explore the genesis of East African politics of the USA, to identify the main tendencies of this policy direction at every stage. A systematic approach was used for the comprehensive analysis of the USA East Africa policy in 1955–1957, which gave an opportunity to identify economic and geopolitical interests of the USA in East Africa, goals and objectives of major counties towards Egypt and Ethiopia, and to trace in this regard the attitude of the USA towards Ethiopia’s confrontation with Egypt. Conclusions. Despite the orientation of the Foreign policy of the emperor of Ethiopia to the USA and his attempts to satisfy the USA interests (including the allocation of a military base in Ethiopia), Haile Selassie I failed to fully attract not only American private fund but also to make Ethiopia one of the Foreign policy priorities of the USA government. Ethiopia was of no interest to the USA not only as a potential economic partner (it remained an agricultural country with obsolete modes of production), but also as a military ally. The USA supported some plans of the emperor of Ethiopia, for example the project of accession of Eritrea to the Ethiopian Empire, for the following reasons only:1. due to independent Eritrean country’s insolvency; 2. due to the necessity to maintain peace and order in the northeastern Africa, on the west coast of the Red Sea. «Right» was given to the Ethiopian Empire, which needed the access to the sea and which at that time had a relatively strong army capable to battle any inner reaction and to defend the borders of Eritrea, where American military bases were located.

Abstract:
Within a period of just a year during the late 1980s, the Ethiopian Revolutionary or ‘Red’ Army suffered serious defeat in both Eritrea and Tigray. Although numerically and technically superior to its opponents, dissension in the army's ranks, political meddling from Addis Ababa, loss of will, and the remarkable skill and determination of its opponents prevented it from achieving victory. Two years after its humiliating defeat in Tigray, the army collapsed, and the military regime it had sustained disappeared. Eritrea succeeded in declaring its independence and the Tigrayan rebels seized power in Ethiopia. This article demonstrates that the Eritrean and Tigrayan forces ultimately won because they had grass-roots support and because they were able to back each other militarily and politically. In the meantime, the dictatorship in Addis Ababa was losing popular support as its ‘citizens’ were no longer willing to make the sacrifices that were necessary to continue the struggle. Only by considering these points can we appreciate why Africa's second-largest army was annihilated or, conversely, why the insurgents triumphed, for their success was not inevitable.

Abstract:
Abstract Of the millions of Community Health Workers (CHWs) serving their communities across the world, there are approximately twice as many female CHWs as there are male. Hiring women has in many cases become an ethical expectation, in part because working as a CHW is often seen as empowering the CHW herself to enact positive change in her community. This article draws on interviews, participant observation, document review and a survey carried out in rural Amhara, Ethiopia from 2013 to 2016 to explore discourses and experiences of empowerment among unpaid female CHWs in Ethiopia’s Women’s Development Army (WDA). This programme was designed to encourage women to leave the house and gain decision-making power vis-à-vis their husbands—and to use this power to achieve specific, state-mandated, domestically centred goals. Some women discovered new opportunities for mobility and self-actualization through this work, and some made positive contributions to the health system. At the same time, by design, women in the WDA had limited ability to exercise political power or gain authority within the structures that employed them, and they were taken away from tending to their individual work demands without compensation. The official rhetoric of the WDA—that women’s empowerment can happen by rearranging village-level social relations, without offering poor women opportunities like paid employment, job advancement or the ability to shape government policy—allowed the Ethiopian government and its donors to pursue ‘empowerment’ without investments in pay for lower-level health workers, or fundamental freedoms introduced into state-society relations.

In Ethiopia the last decades of the nineteenth century and the first of the twentieth were of crucial importance. This period witnessed the rise of King, after 1889 Emperor, Menilek, founder of the modern Ethiopian state. He it was who established the presentcapital, Addis Ababa, in 1886–7, defeated an Italian colonial army at the battle of Adwain 1896, and between 1905 and 1910 established a number of modern institutions, including the first modern bank, school, hospital, roads and railway. A notable innovator, he was well content to utilise the skills of Indians, as well as other foreigners, for themodernisation of his age-old empire.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the public secondary school leadership styles and teacher job satisfaction in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. A qualitative case study research design was employed to elicit the perception of principals and teachers to the issue under the study. Ten principals and twenty-four teachers were purposively selected to participate in the study. Data collection was done using semi- structured interview questions. Data analysis was done using ATLAS.ti version 8. The study findings revealed that there is state political interference in the public secondary school management system, the teaching-learning process and the selection of the principals. Principals were not appointed based on their qualifications and experience but rather were assigned to the position based on their political affiliation to the ruling party. The study respondents perceived that management structures such as the one to five groups, the developmental army/change army group and command post were the tools for ruling party to indoctrinate its political ideology. School secularism was not applicable; the ruling party members had continuous meetings in school and had a role in the decision-making of the school. Principals focused on political activities with teaching and learning activities being neglected and were not perceived as employing an instructional or transformational leadership style. Teachers perceived their levels of job satisfaction as very low with state political interference, bad leadership practices of principals, low salary and benefits, low social acceptance for teaching profession, bad behaviour of students, low achievement of students, government lack of attention for education and practice of corruption in other sectors being major factors. Recommendations were made and a suggested school leadership model was presented, to enhance school management effectiveness and to improve teacher job satisfaction.

Abstract:
This article is an abstract of the author’s PhD dissertation on the specificity of the United States-Ethiopian relations during the reign of Emperor Haile Selassie, where a key role was played by an ex-Italian transceiving radio station located in Eritrea – which became the American communications base named Kagnew Station. The base, due to its excellent geographical location, became the central element of U.S. interests in Ethiopia, and one of the most important links in the U.S. global communications network. As a quid pro quo for leasing Kagnew Station, the United States undertook to train and arm the Ethiopian armed forces, which resulted in making Ethiopia the biggest beneficiary of American technical and military assistance in the 1960s and creating the largest and best equipped army on the African continent.

Abstract:
This chapter extends the argument to the modern era by comparing the battlefield performance of Ethiopia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) during two of the most destructive conventional wars in the post-1945 era: the Second Congo War (1998–2002) and the Ethiopia–Eritrea War (1998–2000). Despite remarkably similar traits, these belligerents, separated by a substantial 0.32 difference in military inequality, had sharply different wartime outcomes. The DRC's army, riddled with ethnic contradictions, nearly collapsed as a coherent fighting force at the war's outset, leading military commanders to augment regular units with a motley collection of mercenaries, child soldiers, militia, and forces from neighboring Zimbabwe and Angola. For their part, Ethiopian forces waged some of the largest mechanized battles of the post-1945 era and displayed increasing sophistication over time. Mechanized units not only repelled Eritrea's initial invasion but cracked its defensive system in a series of grueling offensives reminiscent of World War I's trench warfare. Though casualties were high, Ethiopian forces displayed a high degree of cohesion and tactical innovation on their way to capturing nearly one-quarter of Eritrea.

Abstract:
Background and Objective: It is practically impossible to find out an individual with a specific percentile for all the anthropometric dimensions. In traditional anthropometric compatibility evaluation, a large number of participants would be required to represent a specific percentile (say, 5th percentile) of different body dimensions. However, a user trial involving a large number of participants with intended percentile values is a tedious, time-consuming, and costly affair and in many cases not practically feasible. This paper presents a research strategy of how to validate the anthropometric compatibility of a physical mock-up by a small number of participants representing the extreme anthropometric variability of the target populations. Methodology: A case study on the user trial of a physical mock-up of a light armored vehicle (LAV) used by the Ethiopian army was carried out involving a few users from an ergonomic perspective. Following an anthropometric survey (32 variables) of Ethiopian army personnel (n =250 male), 12 key variables (06 dominant variables, 02 variables with less commonality, 03 variables with less correlation coefficient from their respective predictors, and one targeted variable ‘mass’) that account for the variability produced by the 32 original variables were identified using Principal Component Factor Analysis (PCFA) and regression analysis. Following this, Ethiopian army personnel who represent the boundary values (5th or/and 95th p values) of the identified key variables were identified from the targeted population. Thereafter, the compatibility testing (in terms of space occupancy, dimensional clearances, reaching distance, view field, operational activities, etc.) of the physical mock-ups were conducted with the identified subjects. Results: The 12 key variables found from PCFA and regression analysis were stature, sitting height, popliteal height, popliteal length, bideltoid breadth, hip breadth, elbow rest length, arm length, foot length, foot breadth, handbreadth, and mass. Total 07 army personnel were finally identified who represented the extreme measurement values (5th or/and 95th p values) of those key variables and were asked to volunteer for testing. Discussions: As demonstrated in the present study, it is possible to identify less number of key anthropometric variables that are representative of the overall anthropometric variability of the population by using PCFA and regression analysis. A minimal number of volunteers could be identified by using the extreme anthropometric values (5th or/and 95th p values) of the identified key variables. These volunteers could be deployed for user trials to ensure compatibility from an ergonomic perspective. Such an evaluation technique, involving less number of participants would confirm accommodating wide ranges of user populations as well as reduce the cost, time, and resources for physical trial.
