*The independence of Ethiopia was interrupted by the Second Italo-Ethiopian War, beginning when it was invaded by Fascist Italy in early October 1935, and '''Italian occupation of the country (1936–1941)'''. Ethiopia had over 75,000 '''Italian settlers''' during the Italian occupation of the country. After independence, many Italians remained for decades after receiving full pardons from Emperor Selassie, as he saw the opportunity to continue modernization efforts. However, due to the Ethiopian Civil War in 1974, nearly 22,000 Italo-Ethiopians left the country. | |||
*In the 2000s, some Italian companies returned to operate in Ethiopia, and many Italian technicians and managers arrived with their families, residing mainly in the metropolitan area of the capital. | |||
*In 2009, Ethiopia hosted a population of refugees and asylum seekers numbering approximately 135,200. The majority of this population came from '''Somalia''' (approximately 64,300 persons), '''Eritrea''' (41,700) and '''Sudan''' (25,900). The Ethiopian government required nearly all refugees to live in refugee camps.<ref>"Ethiopia: Demographics", in Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethiopia#Demographics, accessed 8 July 2021.</ref> | |||

*Ethiopian Americans have since established ethnic enclaves in various places around the country, particularly in the '''Washington D. C., and Minneapolis-Saint Paul areas'''. '''Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles, California''', has also come to be known as '''Little Ethiopia''', owing to its many Ethiopian businesses and restaurants, as well as a significant concentration of residents of Ethiopian and Eritrean ancestry. | *Ethiopian Americans have since established ethnic enclaves in various places around the country, particularly in the '''Washington D.

*According to the U.S. Census Bureau, approximately 68,001 people reported Ethiopian ancestry in 2000. Between 2007 and 2011, there were approximately 151,515 Ethiopia-born residents in the United States. If the descendants of Ethiopian-born migrants (the second generation and up) are included, the estimates range upwards of 460,000 in the United States '''(of which approximately 250,000 are in Washington, D. C.; 96,000 in Los Angeles; and 20,000 in New York).'''Unofficial estimates suggest that the Washington, D. C., area has an Ethiopian population of 150,000 to 250,000.<ref>"Ethiopian Americans", in Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethiopian_Americans, accessed 8 July 2021.</ref> | *According to the U.S. Census Bureau, approximately 68,001 people reported Ethiopian ancestry in 2000.
