Here are 3 reasons Ethiopia was the only African country that was not colonized

Three reasons why Ethiopia was not colonized

There were good grounds for both Islam and Europe to oppose Ethiopian colonization. Being a Christian Empire, it was seen as a respectable nation in Western Europe.

It’s critical to comprehend why Ethiopia escaped colonization.

The first Reason.

First of all, it was a Christian country that complied with the ideal of a respectable nation found in Western Europe.

The second Reason

Ethiopia’s people resisted European colonizers and were able to fight back, which is the second reason Ethiopia was not colonized. The Kingdom of Axum sent soldiers to battle with the Crusaders in the sixteenth century. This was a brave and successful mission.

The emperor even made the English queen a proposal. Moreover, Ethiopians spoke Ahamaric, which promoted harmony and solidarity among the country’s citizens.

The third Reason.

Ethiopia was a hilly nation that was too hard to conquer, which was the third reason.

The Ethiopian Empire persisted as a sovereign state that effectively navigated the political landscape of its era. Colonial powers from Europe surrounded it, and its pro-European ruler used his position to his advantage and kept the imperial powers at bay.

The king did not wish to be under the control of these foreign powers, notwithstanding the British’s objectives.
