1. Ethiopia

2. History
Ethiopia has always been occupied
ever since the beginning. It is
unknown how ethiopia was
colonized or how Ethiopia gained
their independence. The following
timeline on the next slide, is a brief
following of how Addis Ababa
became the capital of Ethiopia.

4. Problem
Half of Ethiopia is desert and half is
highland. The highlands are
becoming desert and this is called
Desertification. This is a problem
because if all of ethiopia becomes
desert, then there will be no land to
plant on. Also it will become hotter
and there will be less water.

5. Solutions
We can prevent desertification by planting trees near the
border of the desert or in the desert. The citizens of
Ethiopia can do this by themselves. There are special
rocks that can be used as fertilizer for trees that are
being planted. There is a chance this may not work
because the trees and plants may die in the desert.
but if it works it is a very easy way to stop
desertification. Another way to stop desertification is to
build a giant wall, 6000 kilometers long, made out of
sand, stuck together with bacteria. This can also be
done only by Ethiopia. This would require a lot of
people and a lot of bacteria, but if we find a lot of
people & bacteria, this would be a better solution to

6. Solution
The final solution of desertification that
I have picked is to build the sand wall.
This will work great as long as we can
figure out minor details like
politics,funding, and where to obtain
“giant bacteria-filled balloons.” Even
though this may cost a lot, Ethiopia
can solve the problem of
desertification by itself with this
