As a chartered city, Addis Ababa serves as the capital city of Ethiopia. It is where the African Union is headquartered and where its predecessor the Organization of African Unity (OAU) was based.

The Lower Omo River in south west Ethiopia is home to eight different tribes whose population is about 200,000 inhabitants. They have lived there for centuries. The Lower Omo Valley is a spectacularly beautiful area with diverse ecosystems including grasslands, volcanic outcrops, and one of the few remaining ‘pristine’ riverine forests in semi-arid Africa which supports a wide variety of wildlife.

It is some measure of the Danakil’s geological activity that more than 30 active or dormant volcanoes-roughly one-quarter of the African total are listed by the Smithsonian Institute Global Volcanism Program. These volcanoes are all geological infants, having formed over the past million years, and a great many took their present shape within the last 10,000 years.
