This rich culture of East Africa, known in the Bible as Abyssinia, claims descent
from king Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. Under a Marxist regime, however, this ancient
people has suffered from famine and genocide. This presentation chronicles the heartbreak of
Ethiopia, which mirrors many of the crises besieging the third world countries of Africa.
The World's Political Hot Spots series explains the basis of conflicts in some of the world's most
politically sensitive areas. Many of these regions are in today's headlines, and tensions recently
have become violent in virtually all of them. Each presentation covers up to ten centuries of
background, revealing how and why today's problems occur.
