Haile Selassie  

Definición

  • Emperor of Ethiopia Emperor Haile Selassie was born on 23 July 1892 and through his marriage to the daughter of Emperor Menelik II and regency to the Empress Zaudita was able to ascend the throne in 1930, as the apocryphal 111th emperor since Solomon. The great irony of his life remains that the tools he used to consolidate power—modernization and development—were, in their absence, those that led to his ignominious downfall in 1974.
