About Ethiopia

Ethiopia, officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, is a landlocked country in the Horn of Africa, known for its diverse landscapes, historical sites, and rich cultural heritage. Covering a total area of 1,100,000 square kilometers, Ethiopia is the 12th largest country in Africa and the second-most populous. Its capital and largest city, Addis Ababa, serves as the political, cultural, and economic heart of the country, hosting the African Union's headquarters and multiple UN agencies. Ethiopia has diverse climates ranging from tropical savannahs to cool highlands, with the rugged Simien Mountains being one of the significant highlights. The country's rich cultural heritage is evident in its 80+ ethnic groups, each with its own unique customs, traditions, and languages. Amharic serves as the official language. Ethiopia boasts nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the rock-hewn churches of Lalibela, the ruins of Aksum, and the Simien National Park. The economy relies heavily on agriculture, which accounts for over 85% of employment. However, manufacturing and services are growing sectors. Historically, Ethiopia is one of the oldest locations of human life known to scientists and is widely considered the region from which Homo sapiens first set out for the Middle East and beyond. Despite various challenges, including political instability, poverty, and environmental issues, Ethiopia's vibrant culture, fascinating history, and stunning landscapes continue to draw tourists from around the world.
