This lesson explores the historic Battle of Adwa (1896), where Ethiopia made significant strides in resisting imperialism by defeating Italy. As the only African nation to repel a European invasion during this period, Ethiopia's triumph serves as a powerful narrative of resilience and strategy. Students will analyze the factors leading to Ethiopia's victory and discuss the lessons drawn from this historic event. As an exit ticket, students will reflect on their thoughts about why the Ethiopians won and their trust in historical accounts.
