He didn't allow other languages than Amharic to be taught in school. 6. He fucked the Education in Ethiopia since at the end of his reign (40 years) only 25% of the population could read and write. 7. His Economy relied on Slavery (Haile Selassie being a Hypocrite at best). 8. His Economy relied on Farmers (who made 80% of the population) who were heavily taxed by their Landlords, which lead to debts and loss of land, which would lead to poverty. 9. He covered the Famines in Northern Ethiopia which killed in total 200,000 civilians.

Joepie De poepie if their older than Caucasian race then it’s the white who have Ethiopian shaped skulls

[@Southforthewinter]

Joepie De poepie having common ancestors doesn’t mean you’re the same or have the dam origins...for all I know Caucasians we’re genetically modified and who ever did it failed to replicate the melanin required to protect themselves from UV rays. I look at humans like big cats. You have lions, tigers, leopards, panthers etc. I’ve seen a half lion half tiger cub before, the reason it’s special is because nature knows it’s tribe, humans 99% of the time don’t. Also I’m probably wrong about the exact number but doesn’t DNA and fossils research say humans are 6 thousand years old or something like that, but we know humans have been around longer than that according to the age of curtain structures and paintings etc. I have no legitimate data to back this but something about the way white People operate in this world tells me their either the newest humanoid race or their a hybrid of some sort, They have somewhere between 3-8% Neanderthal DNA in them depending on each person. Africans who have no mixing in their bloodline are 100% homosapien. Just something to consider you know, i think the world would be a better place if we acknowledged our differences and embraced them all and cherish culture. Instead we have one race who forced their way to supremacy and then tells everyone else’s stories and history as if they were there for all of it.

History is history. Haile Selassie I. laid the foundation of this great nation but his successors ruined all what he had aspired and built to put the country first in all the settings at least in the continent. Thank you for all you did in your time King, you were a wise, nationalist, pan-Africanist and visionary king of all time. Sorry for those who have muddled in bloods and backwardness. R.I.P! Thank you CCTV !

Oh, He DIDN'T achieve anything! 1. He didn't allow a Parlament, which made him a Dictator. 2. He exported too much, because of this the civilians would have nothing. 3. He didn't allow Freedom of Press and Speech, Protests were most of the time suppressed. 4. He brutally suppressed Ethnic Nationalism, through plunderings and massacres. 5. He didn't allow other languages than Amharic to be taught in school. 6. He fucked the Education in Ethiopia since at the end of his reign (40 years) only 25% of the population could read and write. 7. His Economy relied on Slavery. 8. His Economy relied on Farmers who were heavily taxed by their Landlords. Haile Selassie's successors pretty much made Ethiopia more successful than ever. Ending Slavery, Making the Economy much faster and better, doing something to the extreme poverty, building more than 30 Universities and making Education much better, allowing ethnical groups to speak their language on school etc.

Haile Selassie went to exile because the priests, nobles, and government-officials persuaded him to go and defend Ethiopia from outside diplomatically, the emperor refused and was in the war front (there are pictures to prove it, and the burn on his hand from the poison-gas-bomb.) but the Orthodox priests used God name for him to get out and save the country using his power to fight from outside the country. the Emperor was a pillar for all Black race in the world. he single handedly help all Africa to be independent.

I think if Ethiopia had followed the kind of leadership that Emperor had brought, Ethiopia would have been the most developed and the eye of AFRICA. But imperialists painted him a bad image yet he was not a dictator like Hitler, Napoleon, Mossolin etc. He brought changes for the benefit of Ethiopian people.

His Economy relied on Slavery (Haile Selassie being a Hypocrite at best). 8. His Economy relied on Farmers (who made 80% of the population) who were heavily taxed by their Landlords, which lead to debts and loss of land, which would lead to poverty. 9. He covered the Famines in Northern Ethiopia which killed in total 200,000 civilians.

You are either ignorant about his history of member of the feudal system that was cause for the death of thousands of Ethiopians.

He and his crone even used to import cake from Europe for weddings. He is heartless butcher who let thousands to die for revenge.
