Imperial Ethiopia was founded and focused around the more northern regions of Ethiopia. These areas include very extreme mountain formations, thus making infrastructure hard to build. Ethiopia had neighbors on all sides, with [[Nubia|Sudan/Nubia]] to the west, Somalia to the East, and Yemen to the North

By the 24th of March the Kings of Ethiopia and [[Nubia|Sudan]] held peace talks, and soon after a peace agreement was made. The agreement included laying out new borders between the two kingdoms, as well as Ethiopian membership into the [[African Union]]. Furthermore it was agreed that there would be railroad infrastructure constructed in Ethiopia connecting it with the outside world. As at this point, there was virtually 0 infrastructure in Ethiopia in any form, no roads, bridges, railways, or canals.

After peace was agreed with [[Nubia|Sudan]], the initial speedy growth of Ethiopia slowed and stabilized, and instead there was a great focus on construction. Ethiopians set about creating the very first roads and bridges around Ethiopia, first connecting the Ethiopian towns internally, and then connecting them with the outside world as well. The towns also quickly expanded in terms of size during this time, seeing the building of forts, monuments and even underwater bases. It was also during this period when Ethiopia decided to found a brand new capital town in the East, named Harar (modern day West Mersa). In this period Ethiopia was, although not a world power, it was one of the most important players in all of East Africa. [[File:2020-07-27 12.50.19.png|thumb|220x220px]] Ethiopian culture was an interesting blend, and they quickly gained a reputation for being funny, but aggressive people, who could often used British slang words. The end of the Ethiopian Golden age can generally be defined by the the last great construction - the Ethiopia Letters in the Sand. This can still be found today, North of West Mersa.

Unfortunately, Imperial Ethiopia fell almost as quickly as it had risen. Despite Ethiopia going from nothing to a significantly sized nation within a couple of months, after the end of the Ethiopian Golden Age, the Empire also fell within a couple of months. Citizens suddenly found they had other tasks to attend to, and due to lack of activity from citizens, the towns around Ethiopia began to fall. By June Gondar was the only town left in all of Ethiopia. It was at this point, mooney passed on the imperial role of Negus Nagast to the Duke of Gondar - Epicbunnyman.

For the next 5 to 6 months Ethiopia and its capital in Gondar remained almost completely inactive, it became the hermit kingdom of East Africa. The King of [[Nubia]] (Sudan renamed) gave many offers of buying the Kingdom from epicbunnyman during this time. It was only in the mid-December of 2019 in which King Twomoo made an agreement with the Ethiopian King to Purchase the Kingom, in exchange for access to resources and new expansion opportunities. At this point Gondar and the surrounding Ethiopian lands were finally annexed into the Nubian realm, ending the nearly 10 month period of Ethiopia.

The impacts of Imperial Ethiopia can be widely seen today, despite the fact that many of those who inhabit the area have never even heard of the Old Kingdom of Ethiopia. Many of the roads, bridges and Canals built during the Ethiopian golden age are still used today, in fact they still serve as the backbone for the road system in the modern Ethiopia region. Furthermore, the old Ethiopian cities serve as a foundation for many new cities founded on top of them. Bombard is founded on the ruins of Tsana, West Mersa (an expansion of [[Mersa]]) is founded on the ruins of Harar, and [[Ethiopia|New Addis Ababa]] is founded on the ruins of the old town of Addis Ababa. Without the great works of Imperial Ethiopia in its golden age, it is doubtful some of these towns would exist, and much of the modern infrastructure would not be there. There can be no doubt Imperial Ethiopia had a large positive impact here.
