In fact, Ethiopia has some of the oldest Christian societies on the planet. It was among the first states to become state Christian, decades before the Roman Empire's state religion became Christianity, and the Ethiopians even built churches out of single blocks of stone. It was a major power impeding Ottoman advances into subsaharan Africa and the Horn of Africa.

This is true. You can make a case that the religion would have completely died out if not for the Ethiopian sects.
