Abdi-Som, historically "Ethiopia" mean ALL OF BLACK AFRICA. The Ethiopia Christians read in the Bible and ancient history is NOT the Ethiopia of today which was called Abbysinia. Menelik changed his poor and dusty land from "Abbysinia" to "Ethiopia" to play upon history when whites ignorant of history started coming to the continent but now everyone knows how retarded he was for trying to gain better history. :lol:

"Oromos" are in with the rest of Black Africa there and while many people have always connected the Tutsi of Rwanda to Oromo, this map shows it is the Oromo who left their brothers to come north. :shock:

this map says almost nothing. where is egypt?? what the hell is that big no-name thing in the middle? even a country called "somalia" is no where to be found.
where is a country called "sudan" or "eritrea" etc?? it seems like over 40 of today's countries don't even exist in this map :roll:

well, seems like almost everything has changed since then if this map is true but it is all perspective so its useless in my opinion. not worth losing sleep over it, especially not worth wasting thousands of somali lives for it since none of the region in this map will come back to shape in the future.
