Ethiopia is basically a democratic country now

 Congratulations! It took us a while but we have now free media and everyone can express his opinion openly; there is no issue that is not being discussed freely.

Amhara has united Ethiopian tribes and protected them from colonialism

I am not Amhara, I am not Oromo, I am an Ethiopian. But I want to praise Amhara because he is being targeted by the enemies within and without. 

Amhara is a lion. He has united Ethiopian tribes and protected them from colonialism. That is why the enemies hate him and accuse him of oppressing others, in order to steal his land and weaken Ethiopians unity.  

Amhara has never imposed his culture and language on others.  Ethiopia still has more than 84 different tribes, practicing their own cultures freely.  The widespread use of the Amharic language is not the result of oppression but efficiency. But many foreigns, especially politicians and journalists have tried to misrepresent it. They have been trying to make Amhara look like the African equivalent of the European colorists who invaded foreign countries and imposed their cultures and languages on people they colonized, in order to call  Ethiopia an empire. But Amhara has never oppressed anyone and Ethiopia is a nation.
