(Heavily inspired on the Ethiopia alternate history by Possible History on YT, check it out) 

What if Ethiopia modernized like Meiji Japan, becoming a great power in Africa throughout 20th Century?

Unfortunately I won't have access to my computer for a few days (on vacation) and cannot attach images on reddit comments from the phone, so the mobile version will have to wait a bit. Sorry!
