Ethiopia is one of the few modern countries so old to be recorded by Homer in the Iliad

[@oogalook]

This is got to be one of your best videos. Really great job. Also, Ethiopia has a totally fascinating history, stretching back a long long way. Gosh thanks a lot man!

[@samlee5483]

Why is mr. History so underrated

[@barakdan1858]

Unknown, this channel is amazing

[@zonecc6770]

The algorithm decides who becomes famous. Mr History is one of the many KZbinrs who make good content but don't serve the algorithm so they are not promoted.

[@karnubawax]

People who want to actually learn things aren't really KZbin's target demographic.

[@c-rlt730]

Cringe in/outro, masses prefer a voiceover with more spontaneous/emotional inflections, not mostly monotone, they also prefer a friendly human face or at least more complex animation to compensate for the lack thereof and lastly, I haven't seen him advertising sponsoring affiliates but the more of an add friendly space your uploads present to be, the more commissions KZbin generates so if you're monetized and poppin' or pay for exposure you'll be prioritized in the suggested content realm, (disclaimer: I'm just guessing).

[@fire0skull503]

[@tomg7124]

Italy, Britain, Turkey, and Egypt all fought Ethiopia during the 1800s. Italy was defeated, Turkey was defeated, Egypt was defeated, and the war with British ended up being a tie.

Mr History Something to Note! The History you explained was written by Amharas as it entails their narratives. Just to give an example and the other perspective, Let’s take Zemen “Era of Princess time” was a year of peace the rule of law was replaced by Gadaa democracy and people were intermingling and marrying in peace. During this Oromo (or as you know them as Yejju dynasty) were in control of present day Eritrea and Ethiopia highlands. Amhara elites were brought down to equals with everyone and they weren’t happy about it. The infighting within Amharas at the time intensified as they were fighting over why they were mixing with other people. This infighting was mostly Amhara against Amhara within Gonder town. Most Amhara intellectuals want this to be the history of Ethiopia. These is why they claim zemen mesefin era was destabilising.

[@user-bu9vk1bl4p]

😂😂 Oromo speaking about history.

[@fatboy19831]

What is this a military history? Think if you told the history of the USA only by its wars. The Us has only been around for 250 years not 2000.

Your videos are good, but why do you make videos about all countries by letters. Bigger part of people aren’t interested in histories of all countries. You can tell about countries that we know about them little bit

[@martinturon4799]

I definately am interested in all of them. Even if I thought I wasn't, until I discovered his videos.
