To properly narrate the history of Emperor Theodore's era; Sometimes with a back story; Other times, it requires commenting and relating to the situation that followed. It is appropriate to relate the circumstances outside the region where actions were taken. In Mr. Tekletsadik Mekuria's book, presented with the broad title of "Emperor Theodore and the Unity of Ethiopia"; In addition to the provinces of the north and the middle of the country where the modern princes fought, and Theodore's power reached; It is appropriate to relate the situation in other parts of Ethiopia from a historical point of view.
A person who reads the book without realizing this will ask, "Is this all we call Ethiopia?" It can be confusing. If the princes and kings of that time did not consider the character of the time, what history and culture they brought with them; Readers of today's generation may be confused. Marriage has been a major political tool in feudal Ethiopia until modern times. In the days of princes, who married whom; Who was born and bred from whom; Mr. Tekletsadik Mekuria wrote in detail. In general, it is important to understand the issue of marriage, priesthood, and genealogy from its political meaning in relation to the purpose of controlling one another and gaining supremacy.
