- A few things regarding the maps, flags and pronunciation of words in this video:
Maps on this region at this point in time are relatively inconsistent when it comes to detail, and not very good. I'm also
(admittedly), not the best mapper.
These maps aren't meant to be perfect, but to give a good idea of the borders that existed at the time.
Pronunciation of Ethiopian vocabulary is horrible by the way. This video has some relatively old audio (I made and edited it
nearly a month ago). That'll be something to work on in the future.
Finally, on flags. I've been told to use a different flag by some commenters. Feedback like this is generally appreciated.
For this video, I've switched to using Menelik's flag to represent Ethiopia.
Description:
The idea of a Nile Valley empire is persistent in Egyptian politics, and Isma'il Pascha is finally ready to give it a shot. In order for the empire to rise, he must conquer the Ethiopians, whose homeland contains the beginning of the Blue Nile at Lake Tana. He thinks Ethiopia is a primitive Empire and an easy pushover. He is in for a treat, as the Ethiopian Empire, recently reunified under Emperor Yohannes IV, possesses a formidable military armed with competent firepower. Emperor Yohannes is more than ready to repel invasion. The first major battle of the invasion occurs at Gondet, and, well, the rest is history.

War is not by history ...

Damn ! Ethiopians have no chill whatsoever; I can't believe they fought Italians, Sudanese and Egyptians in such a small period without getting conquered.
The Sudanese mahadist chose not to stay, ethiopians make it seem that they never got defeated. The mahadist plundered the heartland of Ethiopia in Gondar and destroyed every church in that city. They also killed Yohannis IV and decapitated him, you don't hear of these by them tho
@Tamrat Zeyede My point is that ethiopia was not untouchable as it is made to seem. The Sudanese didn't come with the intent to conquer but punish as they collaborated with the British/Egyptians who were our enemy and who we was fighting at the time.
@Tamrat Zeyede I respect your honesty and unbiasedness. I have come across many Ethiopians denying the fact they were defeated at gallabat and that menelik somehow killed Yohannis. And you are right we could have been a force to recon with, unfortunately we had many enemies. It was the turko-egyptian British forces against the Sudanese, and the battle of gallabat I believe was a retaliatory response by the Sudanese because the Ethiopians evacuated the British soldiers in kasala. I am not denying the fact that mahadist have set their eyes on imperialism and conquering as they bit more than they can chew, attempting to conquer Egypt and ethiopian while having fought alot of battles already against the British. Anyway have a nice day bro
@TOMPMATHEWOFFICIAL But if you won the battle how can you loose it. How did the mahadist decimate the entire ethiopian army at that battle. Even killed nobles close to Yohannis. If you was winning and had more soldiers, explain to me this, how do you let a loosing force kill most of your soldiers, generals,.steal your kings carcass, behead and bring back to Khartoum. Sounds to me like the ethiopians lost
@TOMPMATHEWOFFICIAL Yes but the mahadist ultimately won that battle
Egyptian battled Ethiopia 18 times and Egyptians loses 18 times
You forgot the battle of Hornburg and Isengard.
@@teddyissak2720 you forgot the battle of the five armies
This will not happen in the first place, because Egypt was established before Ethiopia, and all of its wars were in the east, not the south, and this war was not between you and the Egyptian army.
not 18 only 1

*Another impressive video!* One correction, that's the Menelik ም flag - which was used during Menelik's rule.
*Can't wait for part 2, Gura!*
ATSE SHADE I’ll take that into consideration in later videos! As of now, I’m a bit conflicted on which flag to use. I suppose I’ll use the 3 colored pennants instead.
@@hiddenhist You have it wrong, because you have to put Green and not red above the Yellow and Red under the Yellow.
@@eho6380 prior to Menelik's rule the order of the flag was actually reversed. It was red yellow green before.

You are wrong during Yohhanes the flag was that way. Red, Yellow, Green.
No he is actually correct that flag was first used by emperor Yohannes menelik just stared using it after Yohannes died

Ethiopians have actually had a couple more battles with the Egyptians Emperor Seyfe Arad moved against Egypt after the imprisonment of the Alexandrian Patriarch. Emperor Dawit II (Dawit I in foreign sources)reached Aswan in upper Egypt causing much havoc. Also Yohannes IV's army may have exceeded 70,000 because the conflict was depicted as a religious battle and men from all over the country had come to protect their country (aside from the imperial army which was as you said largely from tigray and Hamasien )
I agree with this, but sources I've read indicate that it was Gura where a massive amount of people from around the country rallied together to fight, not Gondet.
@@hiddenhist ohhh true, you might be right on that one
not dawit II. it was dawit I.

What? Literally no one claims that the Ethiopians had less than 70,000 warriors.
sources in description, read.
@@hiddenhist i did, smartass. Your own source (Jesman, 1959) puts it at between 80-100,000. Seemed like you “logic’d” your way into misrepresenting history to create drama. Even with Ras Alula’s brilliance as a tactician it would make no conceivable sense that the Ethiopians (who weren’t as well equipped as the Egyptians and Italians) could fight on MULTIPLE fronts, especially with the losses in the Mahdist campaign. Mind you, Jesman (1959), mentions that in the Battle of Gura the Ethiopians fielded 50,000. That’s more than you claimed the entire campaign had! Do I have to read your sources for you? African history is amazing and stories of valour and heroism are a plenty, but pop-historians like you ruin a good subject.
They can’t fight... We whipped a lot of them, East to west...They all got banged on!
So knowbody will ever give ras woldmichel his cresit
Well it's because of geography
They got the mountains
OOF
why's it always the conquest of ethiopia when they lost??? it's more the embaressment of egypt
I just only saw your tube today,where have it been man? I appreciate your work here man! This is what happend in reality and but Egyptians still boast without doing any significant thing against Ethiopia .Even now with all their smuggled weaponry can't defeat the courageous Ethiopians!! They better make paece with Ethiopia and get peacefully the ABAY(Nile) water.That is the only way to win Ethiopia,with Love and cooperation .!
it’s a shame to see so many world powers resorting to threatening violence or actually engaging in it.
@@hiddenhist It is so true that they the so called democracy 'owners' make this shameful distinctions and one sidedness for the benefit of their interests and contradict their own democray.
wrong flag
This isn't Ethiopia and Egypt war, but more like a war between the Tigre kingdom and Khediv pasha dynasty of Othoman. Ethiopia and Egypt as a unified nation did not exist at this time.
Egypt was near a point of defacto independence at this point, and yohannes' official title was Emperor of Ethiopia; he had (still not completely solid) rulership over the major lords.
@@hiddenhist So that's my point, "defacto" independence doesn't make it fully independent. Yes you are right about Yohannes, but still the war mainly revolves around his "Kingdom" (Tigre and Afar) Since only his force fought on this war, we can hardly call it Nation to Nation conflict.
@@teddyissak2720 ok, but Im not using either country in the sense of "nations"; Africa "nations states" don't exist at this point in history, so anyone who makes it so is engaging in extreme projection. At the end of the day, the man's still "emperor of Ethiopia", and he's recognized as such, if tacitly at the beginning of this debacle, by the other lords.
@@hiddenhist Thanks, that's good response. Many people tend to forget or ignore the fact that, Nation formation is fairly a new concept with in this continent. appreciate your effort on clearing that up. Not disagreeing with your Video, I just wrote that comment cuz I was feeling a bit perplexed by all these nationalist clashing over here (as if these conflicts had any direct personal impact on them)
@@teddyissak2720 I made a attempt to portray the complex political climate of the region, but I guess I was not only limited by time but also that I didn't do a good enough job. Then again, I guess some things are unavoidable...
Ethiopia will strive again ! They once governed parts of India...that is why many of us ressemble Indians...

This isn't really hidden. I heard about this in several books. Ethiopian victories came because they did their best to modernize despite their lower technology. Not really hidden there.
It's not "Ethiopian Victory". Ethiopia did not exist at this time.
@@teddyissak2720 Yes it did. The Ethiopian Empire began in 1270. I think you are confused. I believe you are thinking of Axum the ancient empire prior to the existence of the Ethiopian Empire.
@@Fatherofheroesandheroines That's Abbysinian empire. Totally diferent from modern Ethiopia. differen location, different landscape, different seat of government, different autocratic system and most importantly totally different ethnic constituents.
@@teddyissak2720 🤣🤣🤣Cut it kid do you expect us to call Somali Ethiopia this is Ethiopia and the fighters are Ethiopia, from different part of the country, There was no eritrea during this time period. Eritrea is a modern country spawned from an an Italian colony named after the ancient 'Erythrean' sea. The region of land that now forms Eritrea was split into multiple political entities, including Beni Amer pastoralists, Bogos highlands, coastal cities like Massawa, and inland provinces like Hamacien.
It is true that the Ottomans had on and off control over Massawa for a while, but they seldom if ever extended their influence into inland provinces, which sometimes enjoyed independent under the Medri Bahri kingdom, and sometimes were subject to the will of the Ethiopian empire farther south. By the reign of Yohannes though, the kingdom was put under indirect and then direct Ethiopian control through Ras Alula. Please stop arguing false history.

You got one fact massively wrong. Wodemichael Solomon was king of medri Bahir kingdom in current day Eritrea. They were independent from Ethiopia. This is reinforced by the fact that they had wars with King Yohannes. They only time they experienced peace was when they decided to join forces to fight the Ottomans.
Were they not, at this point, under the jurisdiction of yohannes? This is what all of the sources that I have read state or heavily imply.
It would also make no sense for Ras Alula to have been appointed the _Ras_ of these territories if they were not under the control of the Ethiopians.
HiddenHistory They were under Yohannes jurisdiction just before the battle of the battle with the Mahdist in Sudan. At that point Ras Alula was governor/chief of the region. That was after he tricked and imprisoned the previous leader Ras Woldmichael. This caused other issues as Solomon's son in law escaped imprisonment and helped the Italians in their ambitions to colonise Eritrea and other parts of East Africa. Obviously at the time the son in law only wanted revenge and didn't realise the motives the Italians had in mind. After the Mahdist killed Yohannes in battle, Ras Alula left the Eritrean region that he was governing defenceless. Thus Bahta Hagos took over and tried to raise and army to defeat the Italians. After 3 or 4 battles he died in battle (Hagos). That marked the end of any leaders within Eritrean territory. Italians would later be defeated by Menelik in Adawa but the Italians were already weakened allowing the Ethiopians to dominate them. And Eritrea would become one of Italy's first colonies in Africa.
Tesfai Mesfin wolde mikael was replaced by alula, who was under the control of yohannes, because wolde mikael solomon turned coat, siding with the egyptians during the invasion. This is attested to by the british-egyptian sources themselves.
HiddenHistory "The Scottish traveler James Bruce reported in 1770 that Medri Bahri was a distinct political entity from Abyssinia, noting that the two territories were frequently in conflict.
The kingdom was eventually occupied in 1879, when Ras Alula seized control of the region and imprisoned Woldemichael Solomon, the last Bahr Negash. Alula, as governour of Mareb Mellash under the sovereignty of the Ethiopian Empire, organized the resistance against the steadily enroaching Italians and eventually even defeated them at Dogali in 1887. Woldemichael Solomon was sent to the Amba Salama prison with his son Masfen and his son-in-law Kaffal Goffar. However, Kaffal, the son-in-law of Woldemichael Solomon continued the rebellion against the Ethiopian Empire by siding with the Italians in 1885. In 1888, Woldemichael Solomon had tried to urge his son-in-law to bring the Italians up to the highlands. By 1889 Alula was, however, forced to retreat to Tigray and the region that once constituted the kingdom of Medri Bahri fell to the Italians, who proclaimed it as a part of Italian Eritrea in 1890.[15][16]"
Tesfai Mesfin he reported this in 1770. this video takes place in the 1870s. That traveler is not relevant to this discussion, given that im discussing 19th century history, not 18th century history, and yohannes had control of these territories in the 1870s.
