Ethiopia is in a state of shock from death, famine and war, and of the nation losing its sense of identity and purpose, which has left the country divided on regional and ethnic lines. Communism has left the land spiritually, economically and agriculturally bankrupt.

Ethiopia was one of the first Christian nations, and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church became the State Church until the 1974 Marxist revolution. The Marxist regime especially persecuted the evangelical Church.

For further information and specific prayer points for Ethiopia, look up the book "Operation World" by Patrick Johnstone.
