He, as Ethiopian Empireball became known to the world as Abyssiniaball from the 1700s onwards. He is respected in Africa because he kicked Italyball in attempt to colonize him in 1896.

In 1935, Italyball came back, and succeeded in civilizing him this time, but only for 6 years, before UKball helped Ethiopiaball kick him out in 1941. His colors became the Pan-African colors, which subsequently, many newly born African countryballs adapted.
