In the annals of Ethiopian and African history, one name stands out among the rest - Haile Selassie I, the 225th and final emperor of Ethiopia. From 1930 until his overthrow in 1974, he ruled the country and left an indelible mark on its destiny. This visionary leader brought Ethiopia onto the world stage. He steered the nation into the League of Nations and later the United Nations, while making Addis Ababa the vibrant centre for the Organization of African Unity, today known as the African Union. Ironically, Haile Selassie initiated the changes that led to his downfall. For instance, the military training program that exposed Ethiopian officers to representative institutions in the United States, and Haile Selassie I University, where students learned to think about political economy. ************************************************************************* Research/Writing Support - Bitwul Dashe ************************************************************************
