History[]
“ | The early modern period saw a series of migrations of large people-groups into modern-day Ethiopia. One of these, the Oromo, became increasingly influential and numerous, to the point where they comprised the largest demographic group in the region. Famed for their bravery and martial prowess, the Oromo were valuable allies – and even more dangerous enemies. | ” |
