amhara have literally been targeted by everyone for over 30 years, and people still complain about “amhara supremacy”... what has this group of people done besides contributing to ethiopia as a whole? TPLF/EPRDF used the country’s resources to build their own wealth, so does the current regime... yohannes realized he could take the throne if tewodros were gone, so he compromised him to a foreign contender... when amhara were in that position, menelik kicked italy out, haile selassie modernized ethiopia, and the derg, whatever its flaws, wouldn’t let ethiopia become landlocked if it weren’t for enemies stabbing it from every direction... point is: notice the pattern here? yeah, ethiopia would probably be in better shape if it were in amhara hands... generally, amhara leaders weren’t perfect... but yall would be lucky if amhara were still as strong
