It is an isolated nation, but it is receptive to the outside world. It is hierarchical and conservative, but it is innovative and desirous of modernity. The Ethiopian people are conformist as a group, but they are fiercely independent as individuals. The Ethiopian identity defies definition. Ethiopia exists simultaneously in different time periods. When the Ethiopian people see something new that might work to their advantage, they will embrace it and find ways to improve on it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModern democracy, however, has understandably been slower to bloom given the strong historical antecedents of its monarchy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCulture Smart!

Etiquette in daily life, socializing, and communicating are all helpfully described, and advice is given on how to make the most of a visit.
