BIO HAILE SELASSIE-TROOPS

Undated picture of Emperor of Ethiopia Haile Selassie (1892-1975), the last Emperor of Ethiopia (1930-36 and 1941-74) reviewing troops in Addis Ababa. Haile Selassie led the revolution in 1916 against Lij Yasu, and became regent and heir to the throne, westernizing the institutions of Ethiopia. In the early 1960s he helped to establish the Organization of African Unity (OAU) and the Movement of Nonaligned Countries. The disastrous famine of 1973 led to economic chaos, industrial strikes, and mutiny among the armed forces, and he was deposed on September 12, 1974 by a military coup in favour of the Crown Prince. He die in 1975. (Photo by AFP) (Photo by -/AFP via Getty Images)
