Beautiful Ethiopia, compelling Africa
Ethiopia is a multi-lingual society with around 80 ethnic groups, the two largest being the Oromo and the Amhara. It is the origin of the coffee bean. Ethiopia is a land of natural contrasts with its vast fertile West, jungles, numerous rivers, Africa's largest continuous mountain ranges and the largest African cave.
As previously mentioned, Ethiopia is historically a Christian nation, mentioned in the Bible. The Orthodox Church is the most dominant religion and there are growing Roman Catholic, Evangelical and Pentecostal Christian groups.

Ethiopia is located in the Horn of Africa. It is bordered by Eritrea to the north and northeast, Djibouti and Somalia to the east, Sudan and South Sudan to the west, and Kenya to the south. With over 93,000,000 inhabitants, Ethiopia is the most populous landlocked country in the world, and the second-most populated nation on the African continent. It occupies a total area of 1,100,000 square kilometres (420,000 sq mi), and its capital and largest city is Addis Ababa.
Ethiopia was a monarchy for most of its history. Alongside Rome, Persia, China and India, the Kingdom of Aksum was one of the great world powers of the 3rd century. In the 4th century, it was the first major empire in the world to officially adopt Christianity as a state religion.
