The story of Ethiopia is one of origins, empires, resistance, and reinvention. This video traces the entire arc of Ethiopian history—from the first upright hominins and the world's oldest tools to the rise of Aksum, medieval Christian dynasties, imperial conquests, and modern-day conflicts. Along the way, it reveals how one land became the cradle of humanity, a powerhouse of ancient trade, and a symbol of unbroken sovereignty in the face of colonialism.
From Lucy’s ancient footsteps to the Battle of Adwa, from rock-hewn churches to revolutions and modern war, this is the untold story of how Ethiopia shaped—and was shaped by—the global forces of religion, empire, and identity.
