ethiopians are the native inhabitants of ethiopia, as well as the global diaspora of ethiopia.ethiopians constitute several component ethnic groups, many of which are closely related to ethnic groups in neighboring eritrea and other parts of the horn of africa.the first documented use of the name 'ethiopia' from greek name 'αἰθίοψ' (ethiopian) was in the 4th century during the reign of aksumite king ezana.there were three ethnolinguistic groups in the kingdom of aksum; semitic, cushitic, and nilo-saharan (ancestors of the modern-day kunama and nara).the kingdom of aksum remained a geopolitically influential entity until the pillage of its capital — also named axum — in the 10th century by queen gudit.nevertheless, the core aksumite civilization was preserved and continued into the successive zagwe dynasty.by this time, new ethnic groups emerged – the tigrayans and amharas.during the solomonic period, the latter established major political and cultural influence in the horn of africa.in the late middle ages, muslim states were established, including the sultanate of ifat, and its successor the adal sultanate.discontent with territory and religious dominance led to intense war between the ethiopian empire, the christian state, (consisting of the amhara, tigrayan, soddo gurage, and agaw ethnic groups) and the muslim state adal sultanate (consisting of semitic speaking harari formally known as the harla people and the argobba).during the 1600s, there were large-scale migrations of the oromo from the south into the highlands and also alongside the somali into adal or what was known as 'hararghe' (land of the hararis).a period of stability and peace continued through the gondarine period in 16th and 17th century, but ethiopia was divided into de facto autonomous regions in the mid-18th century.during this time, ethiopia was nominally ruled by an emperor who functioned as a puppet monarch of various regional lords and noblemen.

ethiopians are the native inhabitants of ethiopia, as well as the global diaspora of ethiopia.ethiopians constitute several component ethnic groups, many of which are closely related to ethnic groups in neighboring eritrea and other parts of the horn of africa.the first documented use of the name 'ethiopia' from greek name 'αἰθίοψ' (ethiopian) was in the 4th century during the reign of aksumite king ezana.discontent with territory and religious dominance led to intense war between the ethiopian empire, the christian state, (consisting of the amhara, tigrayan, soddo gurage, and agaw ethnic groups) and the muslim state adal sultanate (consisting of semitic speaking harari formally known as the harla people and the argobba).a period of stability and peace continued through the gondarine period in 16th and 17th century, but ethiopia was divided into de facto autonomous regions in the mid-18th century.during this time, ethiopia was nominally ruled by an emperor who functioned as a puppet monarch of various regional lords and noblemen.

ethiopians are the native inhabitants of ethiopia, as well as the global diaspora of ethiopia.ethiopians constitute several component ethnic groups, many of which are closely related to ethnic groups in neighboring eritrea and other parts of the horn of africa.the first documented use of the name 'ethiopia' from greek name 'αἰθίοψ' (ethiopian) was in the 4th century during the reign of aksumite king ezana.there were three ethnolinguistic groups in the kingdom of aksum; semitic, cushitic, and nilo-saharan (ancestors of the modern-day kunama and nara).the kingdom of aksum remained a geopolitically influential entity until the pillage of its capital — also named axum — in the 10th century by queen gudit.nevertheless, the core aksumite civilization was preserved and continued into the successive zagwe dynasty.by this time, new ethnic groups emerged – the tigrayans and amharas.during the solomonic period, the latter established major political and cultural influence in the horn of africa.in the late middle ages, muslim states were established, including the sultanate of ifat, and its successor the adal sultanate.discontent with territory and religious dominance led to intense war between the ethiopian empire, the christian state, (consisting of the amhara, tigrayan, soddo gurage, and agaw ethnic groups) and the muslim state adal sultanate (consisting of semitic speaking harari formally known as the harla people and the argobba).during the 1600s, there were large-scale migrations of the oromo from the south into the highlands and also alongside the somali into adal or what was known as 'hararghe' (land of the hararis).a period of stability and peace continued through the gondarine period in 16th and 17th century, but ethiopia was divided into de facto autonomous regions in the mid-18th century.during this time, ethiopia was nominally ruled by an emperor who functioned as a puppet monarch of various regional lords and noblemen.

ethiopians are the native inhabitants of ethiopia, as well as the global diaspora of ethiopia.ethiopians constitute several component ethnic groups, many of which are closely related to ethnic groups in neighboring eritrea and other parts of the horn of africa.the first documented use of the name 'ethiopia' from greek name 'αἰθίοψ' (ethiopian) was in the 4th century during the reign of aksumite king ezana.there were three ethnolinguistic groups in the kingdom of aksum; semitic, cushitic, and nilo-saharan (ancestors of the modern-day kunama and nara).the kingdom of aksum remained a geopolitically influential entity until the pillage of its capital — also named axum — in the 10th century by queen gudit.nevertheless, the core aksumite civilization was preserved and continued into the successive zagwe dynasty.by this time, new ethnic groups emerged – the tigrayans and amharas.during the solomonic period, the latter established major political and cultural influence in the horn of africa.in the late middle ages, muslim states were established, including the sultanate of ifat, and its successor the adal sultanate.discontent with territory and religious dominance led to intense war between the ethiopian empire, the christian state, (consisting of the amhara, tigrayan, soddo gurage, and agaw ethnic groups) and the muslim state adal sultanate (consisting of semitic speaking harari formally known as the harla people and the argobba).during the 1600s, there were large-scale migrations of the oromo from the south into the highlands and also alongside the somali into adal or what was known as 'hararghe' (land of the hararis).a period of stability and peace continued through the gondarine period in 16th and 17th century, but ethiopia was divided into de facto autonomous regions in the mid-18th century.during this time, ethiopia was nominally ruled by an emperor who functioned as a puppet monarch of various regional lords and noblemen.

deep submergence vessel nr-1 was a unique united states navy (usn) nuclear-powered ocean engineering and research submarine, built by the electric boat division of general dynamics at groton, connecticut.nr-1 was launched on 25 january 1969, completed initial sea trials 19 august 1969, and was home-ported at naval submarine base new london.nr-1 was the smallest nuclear submarine ever put into operation.the vessel was casually known as 'nerwin' and was never officially named or commissioned.the u.s. navy is allocated a specific number of warships by the u.s. congress, but admiral hyman rickover avoided using one of those allocations for the construction of nr-1 in order to circumvent the oversight that a warship receives from various bureaus.nr-1 had the unique capability to remain at one site and completely map or search an area with a high degree of accuracy, and this was a valuable asset on several occasions.in the 1970s and 1980s, nr-1 conducted numerous classified missions involving recovery of objects from the floor of the deep sea.these missions remain classified and few details have been made public.one publicly acknowledged mission in 1976 was to recover parts of an f-14 that were lost from the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank with at least one aim-54a phoenix air-to-air missile.the secrecy typical of usn submarine operations was heightened by rickover's personal involvement, and he shared details of nr-1 operations only on a need-to-know basis.rickover envisioned building a small fleet of nr-1 type submarines, but only one was built due to budget restrictions.following the loss of the space shuttle challenger in 1986, nr-1 was used to search for, identify, and recover critical parts of the challenger craft.it could remain on the sea floor without resurfacing frequently, and was a major tool for searching deep waters.

deep submergence vessel nr-1 was a unique united states navy (usn) nuclear-powered ocean engineering and research submarine, built by the electric boat division of general dynamics at groton, connecticut.nr-1 was launched on 25 january 1969, completed initial sea trials 19 august 1969, and was home-ported at naval submarine base new london.nr-1 was the smallest nuclear submarine ever put into operation.the vessel was casually known as 'nerwin' and was never officially named or commissioned.the u.s. navy is allocated a specific number of warships by the u.s. congress, but admiral hyman rickover avoided using one of those allocations for the construction of nr-1 in order to circumvent the oversight that a warship receives from various bureaus.nr-1 had the unique capability to remain at one site and completely map or search an area with a high degree of accuracy, and this was a valuable asset on several occasions.in the 1970s and 1980s, nr-1 conducted numerous classified missions involving recovery of objects from the floor of the deep sea.these missions remain classified and few details have been made public.one publicly acknowledged mission in 1976 was to recover parts of an f-14 that were lost from the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank with at least one aim-54a phoenix air-to-air missile.the secrecy typical of usn submarine operations was heightened by rickover's personal involvement, and he shared details of nr-1 operations only on a need-to-know basis.rickover envisioned building a small fleet of nr-1 type submarines, but only one was built due to budget restrictions.following the loss of the space shuttle challenger in 1986, nr-1 was used to search for, identify, and recover critical parts of the challenger craft.it could remain on the sea floor without resurfacing frequently, and was a major tool for searching deep waters.

deep submergence vessel nr-1 was a unique united states navy (usn) nuclear-powered ocean engineering and research submarine, built by the electric boat division of general dynamics at groton, connecticut.nr-1 was launched on 25 january 1969, completed initial sea trials 19 august 1969, and was home-ported at naval submarine base new london.nr-1 was the smallest nuclear submarine ever put into operation.the vessel was casually known as 'nerwin' and was never officially named or commissioned.the u.s. navy is allocated a specific number of warships by the u.s. congress, but admiral hyman rickover avoided using one of those allocations for the construction of nr-1 in order to circumvent the oversight that a warship receives from various bureaus.nr-1 had the unique capability to remain at one site and completely map or search an area with a high degree of accuracy, and this was a valuable asset on several occasions.in the 1970s and 1980s, nr-1 conducted numerous classified missions involving recovery of objects from the floor of the deep sea.these missions remain classified and few details have been made public.one publicly acknowledged mission in 1976 was to recover parts of an f-14 that were lost from the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank with at least one aim-54a phoenix air-to-air missile.the secrecy typical of usn submarine operations was heightened by rickover's personal involvement, and he shared details of nr-1 operations only on a need-to-know basis.rickover envisioned building a small fleet of nr-1 type submarines, but only one was built due to budget restrictions.following the loss of the space shuttle challenger in 1986, nr-1 was used to search for, identify, and recover critical parts of the challenger craft.it could remain on the sea floor without resurfacing frequently, and was a major tool for searching deep waters.
