People & Culture of Ethiopia

Ethiopia is a multi-ethnic country with various ethnic groups such as Omoro (43.4% of the population), Amhara (26.9%), Somali (6.2%), Tigrayan (6.1%), Sidama (4%), Gurage, Welayta, Hadiya, Afar, and Gamo. Such unique acts of coffee serving, folding a dress, cutting an animal, and greeting people are done traditionally. Each ethnic group has their cultural practices and language. The coffee ceremony is the most recognized cultural item. Coffee is served in social gatherings among family and friends. 

The first round of coffee drinking is "awol," the second is "tona," and the third is "baraka." Ethiopians are united to save their cultural identity. It is believed that Ethiopia has a cultural depth. The "habesha" identity, which refers to Ethiopians and Eritreans, is a source of pride for Ethiopians as it determines their culture is different from other African cultures. Ethiopians are modest, cheerful, well-mannered, and selfless and are against showing negative emotions like aggression or pride.
