parameter to no to reactivate your request.In the infobox, it says that the area is 429,000, but the paragraph says 472,000. Could someone change 429,000 to 472,000 in the infobox please? 2603:8080:D03:89D4:A12C:2B12:91E3:7B (talk) 23:36, 21 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- There are a few different measurements of Ethiopia's area, so I've replaced both the paragraph and infobox stats with the one from The World Factbook to align it with the List of countries and dependencies by area. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:02, 22 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
"Anatomically modern humans emerged from modern-day Ethiopia and set out for the Near East and elsewhere in the Middle Paleolithic period."
[edit ]This claim is contested by more recent evidence than the sources provided, and there is a growing consensus in anthropology of a pan-African origin of H. sapiens. E.g. Catofminerva (talk) 10:43, 22 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
Ezana name change
[edit ]Ezana does not change the name that so completely false. He mentions the Habashat as a people under his dominion not the axumites themselves and separates them from his own kingdom. The false narrative he adopts it for his own kingdom is demonstrably untrue 2A02:C7C:3617:3200:6503:A8E7:1852:8968 (talk) 18:27, 27 November 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
Wrong information
[edit ]In the "Ethiopian history" section, it says "in 1867 Ethiopia adopted the pan-African flag colors in support of pan-Africanist ideology." This is not true. Ethiopia was not a part of any "pan-Africanist" movement because they didn't exist back then. Also, the pan-Africanist ideology adopted the Ethiopian flag as their movement's colors, not the other way around. 2601:645:301:4730:508E:5AE8:8C23:6ABA (talk) 06:22, 26 December 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
