	Second Italo-Abyssinian War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In November of 1934, Abyssinian territorial troops, accompanied by the Anglo-Ethiopian boundary commission, protested Italy's incursion.
		The occupation was marked by recurring guerilla campaigns against the Italians, and reprisals which included mustard gas attacks against rebels and the murder of prisoners.
		This was a short lived state, however, as Abyssinia was liberated from Italian control in the subsequent East African Campaign.

	The Sudan, 1000 AD (DBA Campaign Scenario) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		I was sitting, bored, with a friend one evening going over the DBA campaign lists when we realized that none of campaigns really offered armies with a large assortment of exotic troops (save the Tamerlane campaign, but it just has elephants and little else).
		We also noticed that neither of Sudanese armies were included in any campaign, and they, along with their enemies, offered enough in the way of exotic elements.
		Notice that this draws the campaign further away from the Sudan, since the Berbers were active as far as Tunisia.

		Abyssinian is the oldest African-American Baptist church in the state of New York, and among the five oldest African-American Baptist churches in the United States.

		These practical acts of Abyssinian colonial rulers is clearly seen by change of names in almost all Oromo places to Abyssinian traditional and religious names; for instance the heart land of Oromia, Finfinnee was re-named as Addis Ababa, Bishooftuu as Debre Zeit, Adaamaa as Nazret and the like.
		The conceptual design of Abyssinian governments by alienating and dislocating Oromos from their birthplace, replacing with foreigners is their habitual endeavor to advocate Habasha superiority over other nations and nationalities, whereas Ethiopia means actually the Abyssinian ownership, culture and tradition while a liability to all conquered nations are masked.
		Abyssinians, besides annihilating Oromo intellectuals and conscious Oromo groups are systematically burying original claims of Oromos.

	Stress of Harlem’s Rebirth Shows in School’s Move to a New Building
		As the development arm of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, which has served the poor in Harlem for 195 years, the corporation has been forced to walk a fine line between bringing economic growth to the community and remaining true to its community roots.
		Abyssinian has struggled to create a balance between working successfully with big developers like Forest City Ratner while keeping an ear open to local residents who complain of changes in the quality of their life, like rats invading their block.
		Abyssinian has powerful political friends - among them C. Virginia Fields, the Manhattan borough president, and Randy A. Daniels, New York's secretary of state, both of whom are members of the church - and that fact has added to the sense that the development corporation has swung too far toward politics and business.

		Though the “ king of kings”—as the Abyssinian potentate styles himself—squats on a mat for a throne, and possesses neither hat nor shoes, yet is his pride none the less absolute, and the traditions of this people confirm his pretensions.
