Ethiopia

Discover essential information about Ethiopia

Ethiopia is Africa's oldest independent nation and the second-most populous country on the continent. Sitting on the Horn of Africa and bordered by Eritrea, Djibouti, Somalia, Kenya, South Sudan, and Sudan, it is one of the few African countries to have successfully resisted European colonization. As the birthplace of coffee, the cradle of Christianity in Africa, and home to ancient rock-hewn churches at Lalibela, Ethiopia's heritage is unmatched.
