{{summary | text=Ethiopia is a north-eastern African country with a population of about 75 million. There are dozens of different ethnic groups in the country, with most people of either [[Semitic]] or [[Cushitic]] origin. The country is very poor, following decades of drought and war. Christianity is the major religion of the country, with about 60% of the population belonging to the [[Ethiopian Orthodox Church]]. Since 1991 there has been freedom for worship and witness (prior to this the Marxist regime persecuted Christians) and there has been huge growth in the [[Protestant]] church since then with now over 10 million Protestant Christians. There is an increasing [[Muslim]] minority.}}
