What a great question. time to swallow the bitter truth yeah? 1800s malekiya akababi new Menelik II, launched a series of violent campaigns to expand his borders, keza befit ye Shewa ngus enji yemanm gezi alneberem. Keza he forcibly incorporated independent kingdoms and communities in the south, west, and east. Keneza wust the fiercest resistors were Kawo Tona Gaga of Wolaita and Gaki Sherocho of Kaffa. Kawo Tona bravely defended the Kingdom of Wolaita against Menelik’s well-armed forces in 1894. Despite being outgunned, he built strong defenses and led a determined resistance. After heavy fighting, his forces were defeated, and Wolaita was annexed. People refuse to talk about it but the people suffered mass killings, and the region was placed under harsh military rule. Lik endezaw, Gaki Sherocho, the last king of Kaffa, resisted until 1897. He organized guerrilla warfare, but Kaffa was eventually overrun. Gaki was captured and exiled, and Kaffa was plundered and absorbed into the empire.

Menelik ena Toru used ke Europe yagegnutn mesariya tetekmewu they burned villages, enslaved people( wollega, benishalgumuz yalu hzbochn ende eka new yechebechebachew le nechoch), and redistributed land to northern settlers under the Neftenya system. Amharic language asfafa, Orthodox Christianity endikebelu aderegachewu, and imperial culture were imposed on diverse ethnic groups. These conquests left deep wounds, cultural loss, and long-lasting resentment that still echoes today. But ofcourse we are so not ready to talk about it. Everyone has their own trkt and they run with it. When people don't even agree on what actually happened we wonder why there are conflicts everywhere. The fact is, there was a lot of violence done by those some Worship even now and no one wants to admit it.
