He is grandson of Emperor Iyassu V and great grandson of the famous Emperor Menelik II from the Solomonic Dynasty. Born in 1961, Crown Prince Girma Yohannis Iyassu Menelik II, sometimes knowen by the title of his grandfather " Abeto-Lij Girma" (by the way he is the only one who carries such an old Ethiopian title)-studied in Germany, London School of Economics and Berkeley, CA. He was a professor and researcher at the University in Germany, Miami, Florida and UCLA. After working in Ethiopia for NGOs and Board Chairman of Alemaya University, today he is living in Miami I think. I didn't know this information until I found some from Wiki and its links.

Mengistu Haile Mariam deposed the Ethiopian monarchy in 1974. He was the grandson of Dejazmach Kebede Tessema, rumored to be the natural son of Menelik II of Ethiopia. Thus Mengistu Haile Mariam would be the grandson of Menelik II and there are many photograps of him.

Why is Emperor Menelik II so loved by the Ethiopians Does he have a family in Ethiopia always when I ask Ethiopians they feel so proud to tell about him Who is Abeto-Lij Girma Yohhanes Iyassu?
Menelik was so loved because unlike kings prior to him he didn't use force upon his people. He worked so hard to unite Ethiopia as one. If it wasn't for him who knows if the war could have been won. He was once told to save something for himself and his family, but he refused by saying that everything in Ethiopia was his. He was loved so much that he got to be called "mama" Menelik. Emperor Menelik II. was the only African and Ethiopian Emperor who crushed the then world power Italia in the famous Adwa Battle in 1896. Through that not only preserved the Ethiopian souvereignity but "awake " the rest of Africans to fight against colonialism. Emperor Menelik was also the only Ethiopian Emperor who brought civilization to Ethiopia. Electricity, new currency, stamps, highways, railroads, shipping lines, gramaphone, automobiles, factories, hotels and modern media systems. Astonishingly enough, Emperor Hailesellasie, who was deposed in 1974 added not a single thing on that. Emperor Menelik II has a great-great -grand- son called H.IH. Crown Prince Professor Dr. Girma Yohannes Iyassu Menelik II. Born in 1961, he raised up in Germany and studied in London, Berkeley and Germany.

He was the founder and Chaiman of the Ethiopian Democratic Party(EDP) in 1991 and author of several books. Literature Wikipedia or just google girma yohannes Iyassu Menelik and follow the links
Does Crown Prince Prof.Dr. Girma Yohannis Iyassu Menelik II have more children than Prince Kaerrod Known as Kifle Yacob?
I remember the time that the Crown Prince of Ethiopia, Prof. Dr. Girma Yohannis Iyassu Menelik II, was working as the member of the Governing Board of Alemaya University from 2002 to 2006, in Eastern Ethiopia. He was requested and appointed by the former Minister of Education H.E Weizero Genet Zewdé. The Chairman of the Governing Board of the University was State Minister of Agriculture H.E. Ato Belay Ejigu. Other members of the Board were high personalities like Vice Minister of Education H.E. Dr. Teshome Yizengaw, winner of the alternative Nobel Prize Dr. Melaku Worede, Ambassader Solomon Abebe and Prof. Dr. Desta Hamito. Though he was well known and highly recognized by the whole University acdemic community, he never mentioned or behaved like a prince. He was very active and thanks to his suggestions and initiatives, the University could expand in three different towns. The building of a new branch at Dire Dawa with technological, business and law faculties, the establishment of a new Veterinary Medicine faculty in Jijiga and the establishment of the faculty of health Science in Harar, goes back to his initiative. He loves his country and he believes that Ethiopia could get out of her poverty only if the youth gets enough education especially in professional sector.I remember also that he was the director and project manager of the Karlheinz Bhoem Foundation called "Menschen fuer Menschen" at Harar. He was the one that succeeded to build and get the Agro Technical Training College acredited by the Ministry of Education, by the way it was the first private college to receive its accredition in the history of the country in advanced diploma. His grduates call tehmselves his children and were employeed by the industry prior their complation. Karlheinz Boehm was so proud that he called the students as ambassadors of the foundation. The prince was also the one who initiated and succeeded to give and houner Karlheinz Boehm the Honorary Doctrate from Alemaya University.Back to the question: Yes the Crown Prince of Ethiopia, (as the Holy Synode of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church Corospond with him), has one son "Prince Kaerrod", who received the baptismal name of Emperor Iyassu V "Kifle Yacob" at the Church built by him "Kechené Medhanialem Churh". This was the first time all the Bishops and Priests of the Church made a special night ceremony to houner the baptismal of the young Prince Kaerrod. Some people say that he has two daughters from his former girl friend, an American industrialist daughter, but not much is known. However, he left Ethiopia after establishing his companies and he is teaching now in Germany.
