The study of the evidences shows that between the end of the sixteenth century and the end of the eighteenth century the relationships between the Oromo and the Court were built on family links and alliances. Thus the Oromo were not at all considered as an ethnic group but rather as a ruling group. As such they took part in the political game of the Ethiopian Kingdom. Above all they did not represent an Oromo party struggling for power against other groups. They were political forces implied in different court parties. |
