Addis Ababa, the capital and largest city of Ethiopia, located in the highlands of East Africa.
From Amharic 'Addis Ababa,' where 'addis' means 'new' and 'ababa' means 'rose' or 'flower'—literally 'New Flower,' founded in 1886 by Emperor Menelik II.
Addis Ababa is one of the few African capitals that was never colonized by Europeans, and it became home to the African Union headquarters—a symbol of African independence and unity.
