Dear people of Ethiopia, Hello, I’m an Egyptian Student in Cairo University. I see that many people think we Egypt want Ethiopia’s downfall and that we hate fellow Africans. This is not the case. We just want to ensure that we have drinking water as we already have water shortages in the country, and we wish you all the best. Hopefully we will reach an agreement God willing, and we will all advance forward hand in hand to stop human suffering

@@elnatabekele1020 even just limiting the flow of water is a disaster waiting to happen. The citizens of Egypt need nearly every liter of water that comes from the Nile either for drinking water or agriculture. If the Ethiopian government holds too much water back while they fill the reservoir, not enough water will make it to Egypt to sustain the population. This would result in a horrible famine and likely death sentence for millions on Egypt. The dam would be blown up long before that would happen though, but then there’s likely to be a war. The only way that Ethiopia can keep its dam, without the Egyptian government blowing it up to save the lives of its citizens, is to fill up the reservoir really slowly over the course of decades. The Ethiopian government doesn’t want to wait so long for a return on their investment, and that’s where the conflict arises from. Once the reservoir behind the dam is filled there will be no issues regarding the need to hold back water. Once the reservoir is filled, it becomes much easier to manage the water output from the dam to acceptable levels for the Egyptian government. That is, unless it’s discovered that they need to hold back a substantial portion of the Blue Nile just to prevent the reservoir from evaporating away, and decrease in volume, but there are other solutions for that.

As someone who grew up in Ethiopia, just wanted to say thank you for the in depth research you obviously put in and also for opening even my own eyes to interesting possibilities. Your analysis of growing populations and resulting ethnic sovereignty tensions shades interesting light on the Tigray war. Unfortunately, most of Africa might have to deal with similar issues as part of their "growing pains". Seems the central government's relentless advancement to economic progress and promise of a better life can be the most effective antidote. Diversity has always been a big source of instability for Africa in general. Eventhough the world at large struggles to comprehend what Diversity in a continent full of the same race of people.

This also implies a certain degree of imbreeding (as was the case for most of the world at some point) The argument of "most genetically diverse" is kind of a meaningless term, it does not say anything about who they are, what they look like, what that means and in fact the skin color can be very different between groups, the Neolote people for example are much darker than most other african people's.

@Obscure Wondering this is such a blind interpretation on race and ethnicity.

what makes Ethiopia unique is that it has special place in both the bible and Islam. in the bible it has been mentioned 44 times. In Islam, prophet Mohammed warned his followers no to declare jehad in Ethiopia. The Christian state of Ethiopia has sheltered the followers of prophet Mohammed when the Muslims were persecuted by the mecca ruling classes. prophet Mohammed has told his followers to go to Abyssinia where everyone has lived in peace and harmony regardless of their religious difference. following his order, the first Muslim pilgrims arrived Aksum in 615 ad which is regarded by Muslim scholars as the first hijra. their enemies came too Aksum and offered to Chirstian king enormous amount of gold if he hands over the followers of Mohammed, but the king rejected his demand.

Bilal who was a lawyer and not a slave, and he wrote the Quran. The prophete's other companion was the ambassador from Ethiopia to Arabia. The Christian pilgrimage first went to Ethiopia and not Jerusalem. It was changed to Jerusalem in 325 at the counsel of Nice; when the Roman Empire took over the "New Relegion" now known as Chtistianity. Geez or Ethiopic is the parent language of all the so called Afro-Asiatic languages. Hence, the Geez Alphabet is the foundation of the Greek alphabet by way of the Pheonicians, who originated from the Horn of Africa. The Sankrit of India, Hungarian, Armenian and Assyrian, Hebrew, Arabic etc. are all languages with Geez as their root or parent. In ancient times; the borders of Ethiopia was at China. Thus, according to Herodutus; India is Eastern Ethiopia. We can safely conclude, that Ham, Shem and Japhete were all Ethiopians. The Romans also mentioned the Ethiopians in West Africa. Last but not least, Andromeda who is considered the mother of the Persians is Ethiopian. Bramah's wife's name is Sarah as is the bibcal Abraham. Amah in India is just like the Dogon in West Africa or Amin among the Moslems and Amen among the Chtistians. Cush and Shiva are brothers according to Indian legends and it's a colony of Ethiopians who founded Kemit or Egypt 12,000 years years ago.

I am proud Ethiopian. When I was a child I use to hear that our geographical nature atracts the western. I didn't know the reason till I watch this video. I know now. Thank you so much for putting this video together. Yes, we Ethiopian have unique nature and culture.

[@bakull_1931]

great video but to add about Italians being there for five years _ they were never able to go beyond some cities, they were mainly in the capital _ outside the city everyone was fighting them. This is why we say we never colonized because though for the outside world especially for Europeans it looked like Italians were governing Ethiopia but from inside they never never.

Italians occupied, they did not colonize. And it was only cities they had control of, guerrilla fighting continued during those years in rural areas. That is an important note to make. Besides that, good video. ✌🏾

[@joeychikanda5467]

A country cannot be colonized if it has nothing to offer, if the British were to see something in it of cause it will have been colonized but they do not have much to colonize.

[@nahomeassefa9503]

@@joeychikanda5467 don't speak what ifs here. Speak historical facts. But for your sake, since you know nothing of the vast wealth Ethiopia had. (Human capital, belief and unity, and natural resources) If Britain would have tried, it would have been very costly for them. Ethiopia has fought invaders from all corners in the past, not just from Europe. Besides, Britain being as smart as they were, chose to make a friend/ally out of Ethiopia, not foe.

@@nahomeassefa9503 yes, people are always bashing the British Empire, they forget that Gordon was killed trying to stop the Arab slave trade. Plus more recently Bob geldof raised €140m for Ethiopia.

They best learn to be self sufficient and feed themselves, and I can see the Chinese getting them in a dept trap for construction projects like these dams being built.

@@nahomeassefa9503 Africa has the potential to be the wealthiest and most prosperous continent on the planet, it has the resources, but the people need to pull together. Trust me, European people want Africa to thrive, which in turn will prevent the loss of so many migrants coming to Europe. But to get there, there is a danger Ethiopia and others are taking a short cut of replacing one super power draining them, for another. China is the new threat, getting country's into debt with promises of large construction projects like roads, dams and hospitals.

[@AbeshaSew]

Good Analysis/Summary but 1. Italy never ruled Ethiopia as in the governance and control of the country's affairs, they were continuously at war, never dared to go outside the roards that lead to cities, not even 30%. 2. GERD will never reduce the water that flow to Egypt, and GERD will have no impact on Egypt's farming or productivity, it is a false allegation by Egyptian elites who can not stand to see a successful Ethiopia, no shred of evidence on this without getting to details. 3. You forgot to mention that there is no such thing as Oromo Amhara or Somal as every one of Ethiopian cultures are mixed in blood, culture, religion, socially with harmony, eg there is no Oromo who has no Amhara blood or no Amhara who has no Tigrian blood etc,,, In most places, there is ore in common b/n Amhara and Oromo than b/n Oromo and another Oromo... so your analysis on that respect is false based in facts, Ethiopia has more tendency to united as before when they defeat Italians in 1896, the fact they stood 27yrs to cancerous tplf junta hade division campaign failed means Ethiopians are united as one in a way hard to imagine or explain. But good channel,, i like it.

2. GERD will never reduce the water that flow to Egypt, and GERD will have no impact on Egypt's farming or productivity, it is a false allegation by Egyptian elites who can not stand to see a successful Ethiopia, no shred of evidence on this without getting to details. One word, silt. Corps along the nile get their neutrients from the silt in the water. This silt is blocked by Gerd and will fall as a sediment. Meaning ethiopia can now farm silt from gerd and sell it.

[@hobog]

Your statements about the dam are like statements that no nukes will be used. The dam is intrinsically an Ethiopian advantage; Egypt must account for that, even if Ethiopia truly won't weaponise it

[@hobog]

What about the current war?

[@ashpearce8239]

@@DarthVantos The blocking of silt means that dams downstream, like Egypt's High Aswan Dam, will get blocked less and reduce maintenance costs, according to researchers. The dam also protects Egypt from flooding and helps stabilise water flow in dry seasons. The only real risk to Egypt comes from if Ethiopia fill the reservoir too quickly, which they are only doing because Egypt refuses to negotiate. Egypt aren't worried about the dam for agriculture, because there are already dams in Sudan and southern Egypt. They are resisting because it means they will have to give up the near-total control they have over the Nile at the moment
