[Addis Standard] Addis Abeba -- Ethiopia, one of the oldest nations in the world, boasts a rich history that spans over three thousand years. However, the introduction of modern education is a relatively recent development, beginning in the early 20th century. Prior to 1908, the country's educational system was primarily under the control of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, which for over 1,600 years focused on training elites for the clergy and related religious functions.
