Ethiopia has never been colonized by a European Power because of heavy resistance from those nations who attempted to invade it's sovereign territory. The Italians attempted to conquer Ethiopia in the First Italo-Ethiopian War of 1895, but they failed at the Battle of Adwa where an Ethiopian Army led by Menelik II routed them. Liberia became independent after the Emancipation Proclamation in the United States, in which a number of free slaves emigrated to the country with the promise of a homeland, provided by America.
