Axum Empire's History of Ancient Ethiopia

This is a Brief History of the Axum Empire of Ethiopia

The Axumite Empire is a name given to the ancient Kingdom of Axum. The empire existed from approximately 100 AD until 940 AD, when it declined due to the rise of Islam in the region. You probably never heard of this extraordinary ancient civilization of East Africa. The empire was an ancient African kingdom situated in the northern part of Ethiopia and southern Eritrea. It was comparable to Roman Empire and ancient civilization of China. At its height, the kingdom controlled not only modern day Ethiopia but also Eritrea, Djibouti, Somalia, Sudan, Egypt and Yemen.


Axum Introduced Christianity to Ethiopia

The Axum Empire was the first major state to introduce Christianity to the region. It was also one of the earliest empires to issue its own coinage alongside with Sasanian Empire, Roman Empire, and Three Kingdoms of China. But Axum was the first to use cross on its coins and these coins are widely collected today.
