Founded in the late 19th century by Menelik II and serving as Ethiopia's capital since 1889, Addis Ababa has grown to become a bustling metropolis with a population of over 2.7 million. Renowned for its thriving art scene, strong fashion industry, and unique history dating back to the origins of humankind, this city is a hub of political and civic activity. Home to major international organisations like the African Union and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa, Addis Ababa is framed by the picturesque Oromia Zone.

The city's rich history is reflected in its blend of classic and modern architecture. Once the residence of emperors on Mount Entoto, Addis Ababa has transformed over time under the influence of leaders like Emperor Haile Selassie, who embraced modernisation and urbanisation. Today, the Imperial Palace still serves as the seat of government, and the city's rapid growth continues to shape its character.
