In remembrance of the great Battle of Adwa, March 1, 1896, in which the Ethiopian Empire was able to decisively defeat the Army of the Kingdom of Italy and guarantee Ethiopian independence.

The Italians had assembled the largest and best armed European army ever to take the field in Africa until that time, but were decisively crushed when even those in rebellion against the the government dropped everything to join the Emperor to repulse the invader. Pictured here are some of the great heroes of that day.

Pictured below, top center, Emperor Menelik II and Empress Taitu. Immediately below them from left to right Ras (later King) Mikael of Wollo, King Tekle Haimanot of Gojjam and Ras Wolde Giorgis Aboye (later King of Gondar). From top to bottom on the left, Ras Mengesha Yohannes Prince of Tigrai, Ras Makonnen Wolde Mikael of Harrar (father of Emperor Haile Selassie I), Ras Sebhat Aregawi of Agame (who dropped his rebellion to join Menelik against the Italians), and Ras Alula Engida (known as Abba Nega and governor of Hamasein displaced by the Italians). From top down on the right, Dejazmatch Balcha Saffo (known as Abba Nefso), Dejazmach Demissew Nesibu, Fitawrari Hapte Giorgis Dinagde (known as Abba Mela). Across the bottom from left to right after the Conquering Lion of Judah, are Ras Tessema Nadew, Dejazmatch Bahta Hagos of Akale Guzai (who crossed over to the Ethiopian side from the Italians in Eritrea and was killed in the lead up to the battle),and Ras Wolde Mikael Solomon, hereditary lord of Hamasein who also crossed from the Italian ruled Eritrea to fight alongside Ethiopian forces).

God bless the souls of these great warriors. Ethiopians can be proud of who they are thanks to these great leaders.

THE GOLDEN CHILD

For several years, Ras Makonnen's chaplains and astrologers had been foretelling his birth; Neptune and Pluto, they explained, had started slowly moving toward each other in the year 1399; both planets traveled along the Heliocentric Line, taking 493 years to intersect; the moment would come in July 1892, sparking off radiations from other zodiacal signs that would mystically influence the constellation Leo, which corresponded to the biblical House of Judah, Jacob's fourth son, who was born the same month, as recounted in Isaiah.

But before this birth, said the Seers, there would be a great drought in Ethiopia, beginning in 1889, despite the fact that the country traditionally enjoyed two rainy seasons. The eventual return of the rains would confirm the identity and destiny of the child including the divine correlation of his date of birth with the helical rising of Sirius on July 23, a date observed by the ancestors of ancient Kush and Kemet for the innundation of the Nile; and 1892, the same year of the last conjunction of Neptune and Pluto within their life time with its 490 yr occurrence. As it was written in Isaiah 9:6: "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the Government shall be upon his shoulders; and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." .. The LAST of an ancient lineage of sovereignty upon Earth; from King Ori / Anu to Earth’s Rightful Ruler Qedamawi Haile Selassie 1st.

Emperor Haile Selassie I Speech at the unveiling of the statue of Emperor Menelik II (November 1 1930)

Your Highnesses, Honourable Foreign Representatives, and Dignitaries:

This day of the er****on of a statue to Emperor Menelik II is a great and a happy day for the entire people of Ethiopia. The life of man is full of many sacrifices. However, after life, there is nothing better one could leave behind, other than a worthy and memorable name for one's performances, and the er****on of this statue today proves that Emperor Menelik II has been blessed to get this well-deserved reward for his efforts.

Although Emperor Menelik II was Emperor of Ethiopia by virtue of his long and traditional royal lineage, all of you patriots and heroes are well aware of the fact that he was fortunate enough to have successfully pursued what Emperor Tewodros and Emperor Yohannes started in the struggle for the unification of all the provinces which were divided and balkanised as a result of the Battle of Gragne during the period of his father Emperor Lebne Dengel.

In all his efforts, with the blessings of God, his success in uniting Ethiopia has made his name renowned all over the world. Besides consolidating the unity of Ethiopia, Emperor Menelik II also established friendly relations with other governments, thus providing for Ethiopia favourable international relations and assuring the orderly progress of her people.

Having been fortunate enough and blessed with a peaceful reign, farmers worked hard and businessmen did their part well and consequently attained great prosperity.

Let history tell what achievements Emperor Menelik II made for his people and his country, for it will be impossible for Us now to enumerate them all here. No matter how intelligent and brave, no one on earth can escape death and Emperor Menelik II had to pass from this world on December 13, 1913 after having worked as much as he could for the growth of Ethiopia and the progress of his people.
Although this statue can in no way stand as a symbolic example for all the achievements Emperor Menelik II made for Ethiopia, We are erecting this statue because as human beings, there is nothing more We can do.

Many are the Emperors who, in past, worked commendably for their country. However, we know of no king, thus far, who has a statue erected in his name. It was Emperor Menelik II who started and left behind for Us projects which brought Us closer to other countries and it is because of this that We take it upon Ourselves to erect statues as symbolic tokens to Emperors who left behind significant works and, to this effect, We can say that this statue stands to signify the great works of Emperor Menelik II.
Moreover, the presence of so many dignitaries and representatives of foreign governments, who are here for Our coronation and those representing governments that signed friendship treaties with Emperor Menelik II, as well as those of others, to witness the inauguration of this statue and share Our happiness, shows how great indeed he has been.

From now on, We will continue to erect statues, not only for kings, but also for all those patriots who perform or have performed great works for their country, in memory of their name and their works.
