Nowadays, pure Amhara are only found in isolated Northern regions, like Manz and Tegulet.
Dude Tigrayans came before Amharas. Tigrinyan language is close to the Arabic language while Amharic has a clicking sound and seems more African.

Can you explain the negroid features of Amharas? definatly its not from cushitic admixture.
Study linguistics, saxib. They are very closely related, and are both Semitic languages. Try comparing it with Amhara - either spoken or written script, the similarities are obvious. They both use the Ge'ez alphabet.

It's from Southern Ethiopian admixture, Gurage or Oromo.

I haven't noticed these "Negroid features" personally.

Especially the elder Habesha. His presidency is a source of national shame.
There is nothing called Ethiopia it was just a name that Haile Selasie was asked to use by the West in order to hide they Abysinian attrocities and the conditions of the indeginous people who leave in that region.

'Ethiopia' was a very wealthy region prior the Amhara invasion of the South, Under Menilik a Feudalistic country was curved out Amharas/HAbesha being the most detitute and backward regions in the land were given free weapons by the colonialists while their rivals Somalis, Afars, Eritreans were starved deliberatly . This created an imbalance and gave Amhara the upper hand. Hence many ethnic groups were dominated and peasants from Gojjam/Gonder were sent to this regions and were responsible for collecting land taxes from the subjects. With time they became very wealthy at the expense of the locals and with this came pride and with pride they went overboard and plagiarised history rerering to their subjects as subhumans and created a utopia of 3000yrs of civilisation. Over this period of time the West did infact turn a blind eye on the attrocities commited in that region. Never in Africa has Genocide occured that superceds Ethiopia.

Ethiopia is one of Africas highest rate of Taxation and its the country that receives the highest foreign aid yet the commoners are mostly paupers. Though Ogadenia is the most marginalised state in the region however the locals have a better life than anywhere in Ethiopia. What is left as a pride of Ethiopia is Addis Ababa and in reality more than 80% of the people there are paupers.
Semantics. Call it what you like.

There was no genocide, Amhara will only strengthen their grip on the country. When the Woyane are deposed, the Amhara elite will return to their throne. This is because Oromo have always been utterly worthless, their 'revolution' has been touted for decades.

Do you know what genocide means? That does not qualify as genocide. This reads like OLF propaganda to be frank. Oromo leadership accept that they were never dehumanized or oppressed systematically. It was merely the strong taking the lead, not inhumane treatment.

As for Ogaden, they are not worth discussing.

That's about as much of a genocide as the Holocaust.

Meaning it isn't one.

Denying a Genocide occured in Ethiopia is just like denying that a civil war ever occured in Somalia.
