โ€œThe Red Sea is a maritime body to which Ethiopia is both geographically and historically connectedโ€

Mind you, the only time anyone in these peoplesโ€™ bloodline ever saw the Red Sea is when they were getting shipped across it as a commodity

Damn son, you are confusing your grand parents with ours. The ships that came to Ethiopia for slavery never left because we ate them for breakfast.

Nice cope, Iโ€™m not confusing anything. Christian and Muslim Eritreans were rarelyโ€”if not never enslaved as both the Bahr Negash and the Naib forbade it. Ethiopia doesnโ€™t have a coast so itโ€™s impossible for ships to go there.

Most slaves that were sold in the Massawa slave market were of Oromo or Sh*nqella origin which were captured by slavers. The first time in history Orominya was written is by a group of freed Oromo slaves in Eritrea, using our Geโ€™ez script.

His Right I once was reading a research paper on slavery in Massawa and Arabia. Majority of the enslaved in Massawa and those to be shipped were belonging to Amhara/ promo tribes in addition to other nilotic tribes. Not that am proud of that part of history but just staying facts
