Ethiopia is located in the Horn of Africa in EMC, dozens of mining operations on the east have made the area dull and uninhabitable, paired together with several town ruins lying in the area, Ethiopia has many lakes, most notably is the lake north of Amhara (Known as Lake Fishigan), which said town has claimed all the chunks within. This lake is the primary location of many Amhara fishing parties, while a heavy part of the land is mountain ranges, surrounded by the jungle biome in central west Ethiopia, and in the edge of the nation there's a plains biome before crossing into the Nile River, where part of the border between Nubia and Ethiopia lie. Towns are large in size, most of Central-West Ethiopia is claimed under towns, Most towns elevate and flatten their areas, such as Bulen and Copper 9 (whose town is predominantly stone). While other towns remain fixed to the original elevations of the map, like Amhara, Elysium, UBW, and Novaha. In contrast, the east and south is predominantly a desert biome, with much podzol to obtain, The north is also a Desert biome, bordering a plains biome. Although most of the lakes are owned by Nubia, many are under Ethiopian Control. | Ethiopia is located in the '''Horn of Africa''' in EMC, dozens of mining operations on the east have made the area dull and uninhabitable, paired together with several town ruins lying in the area, Ethiopia has many lakes, most notably is the lake north of Amhara (Known as '''Lake Fishigan'''), which said town has claimed all the chunks within.

Shortly after the beginning of Salmon's travels through Africa someplace in August 2024 after meeting up with NestleBad, together they created the town ''''Holeta'''', under [[Third Nubian Empire|Nubia]] at the time.
