"The elite and nobility in pre-revolutionary Ethiopia conquered and ruled over territories to the south of the capital.  Peasant cultivators and pastoralists became an exploited servile labour to the new settler elite of soldiers, clergy and officials.  This book addresses the history of the feudal state, slavery, the slave trade and the nature of banditry and resistance during these turbulent times."
