These are the legendary Arsi Oromo of Bishoftu in Misraq Shewa (Eastern Shewa).

They showed up in huge numbers. Masha Allah.

These are the greatest Oromo warriors.

Where are the useless Afran Qallu who flip between "Oromo" and "Dir"?

Where is my Gujji Oromo friend Waachis? I always tho he was Macha Oromo.

Arsi is Borana and they break into two moiety; Mando and Siko.

All Oromo moieties are pairs of two even from the very start; Borana and Bareentu > Sabbo and Gona, Macha and Tulama, Mando and Siko, Rayyaa and Assabo, and finally Itu and Humbana.

First 3 sets are Borana and the other two are Bareentu.

In the lower moieties they do break down into bigger sub- groups such as Siko's 5 and Mando's 7, the four Qallu, etc.

Look at the language that this docile servant uses to describe Ethiopians. "Legendary". He refers to Amhara as "Lions" and "warriors".

Meanwhile he routinely dehumanises fellow Somalis and uses the most derogatory language to describe them.

The land of the warrior Arsi. These guys occupy both the largest and the most important land of any Oromo. I would personally say their land is one of the most important and fertile lands of Africa, which waters all the major rivers in this part of Africa including the Awash, Shabelle, Jubba. Their land equally posses over 30 lakes.

The Bale mountains

Real warriors conquer such lands.

There's no arsi Oromo in bishoftu. But rather arsi lives in arsi and bale mostly. Macca and other Oromo predominate in bishoftu, ambo, jimma, nekemte, wallaga, Dembidolo, up to the border with Sudan.
.. The karrayu inhabit eastern shewa. Everything else you said is accurate.
Ani macca dha, guji mitii. I am macca bro. We just have complicated forms of settlement. In Oromo culture we have a tradition of marrying outside of our clan.
I as a macca Oromo would marry a woman from guji or borana or etc...

Waaryaadha, oromo waa ethiopian and a ethiopian will always be ethiopian who have phobia about somali and want to keep them in check.

Oromo have no reason or even time to fear Somali.
We have bigger fish to fry.
Our people are dedicated to removing the Abyssinian colonialism in our land. You will benefit as you see Ethiopia is already withdrawing from Somalia.

If you are successful, how long before your attention is turned towards somali? Ethiopia's policy towards somali will always be the same. Even if oromo suckling take the helm they have to keep the status quo.

Guji brother Waachis,

I'm disappointed.

How come you don't know that Bishoftu is an strong Arsi-hold?

I hope you know Arsi doesn't just mean Arsi Zone.

Btw you keep changing your moiety. In the last topic you said your Guji.

The Macha and Tulama dominate central, south and western Shewa but Misraq Shewa is an Arsi strong hold.

You guys are all behaving and loyal to Mulatu.

Definitely in the last topic you said your Guji. I was confused because I always knew you as Macha kid from Jimma.

What you posted is not map of Arsi moiety but Arsi and Bale Zones.

You need to study and learn Arsi are not confined to Arsi Zone or the Bale.

It is like saying Somalis live in Somalia, which is not accurate because they spill into more lands.

Misraq Shewa is Arsi strong hold and they are on the march.
The Arsi Oromo live in East Shewa, Arsi, and Bale administrative zones. These begin about 150 kilometers south of Addis Ababa, in the lake region of the Rift Valley, extending to the town of Assela in the southeast and down to the Bale Mountains in the south.
Tulama and Macha are loyal pets but they are stronger than the Afran Qallu while Karrayyuu and Borana are just pure pastoralists who have little idea how the world operates (reer miyi).

It seems Mr Hawdian is genius when it comes to Ethiopian ethnic genealogies . Me, I don't even know the difference between Oromo and canfar let alone Oromo clans. IF I happen to be fighting against the Oromo I don't know who to kill first or who to spare kkkkk. Knowing the inner differences between the people you are dealing with is very important, for that reason I consider Mr Hawdian a very valuable dabaqoodhi . After the liberation he should be the last dabaqoodhi to be executed for glamourizing Ethiopia. :lol:

Joseph,

I'm not dabaqodhi.

I'm an Ethiologist :)

The Oromo structure is quite interesting as were their indigenous systems of the Gadaa.

It is far more sophisticated and structured than the Somali Xeer system, which is basic law system.

The Oromo system has check and balances, law, relationships, defence, land (for example Aba Harega manages the clan well and decides when each member waters their cattle or where they grass often rotated), hierarchy and so forth. An entire team were assigned for calendars. Rulers had term limits and there was specific time to elect a new leader.

Each moeity has a specific role or job in society. Some were assigned to religious tasks, some magic, some calendars and study of the heavens in order to improve harvest, and so on.

These Oromos don't talk but each knows his place in society. By talking and mentioning something as simple as his sub-group, he can give away his status.

For example Waachis is Macha and I know he is an important individual. Beyond Macha he is Borana thus considered of nobility ancestry and high ranking.

The Borana are the custodian of the Gadaa in the upper chain but the Arsi are somewhat the enforcers and the guardians.

These the nucleus of Oromo culture and way of life. They are eqavelent to the Bini Hashemite and the Abdulwahabis of Saudi society.

The Bareentu are not so cultured but are free soul thus they are more likely to embrace Islam or Christianity and thus far is the case. Most Afran Qallu if not all are Muslim as are Ittu while Yejju are mixed Muslim and Othordox.

These groups became the most Abyssinianized group and my personal view is that they won't as strong as the Borana groups culturally and relationship wise. In Borana law each individual must marry from the other moiety for example Gona man has to marry Sabbo lady, Mando man and Siko woman, and vice-versa.

In this manner I know Waachis would be sympathetic to Waaqists as a Muslim Macha himself because Waaqism is never too far away from him.

For me Oromo hierarchy is interesting as is Ethiopian history.
