Dedication

To the Children of Geʽezawit Ethiopia — the heirs of Yared, Ezana, Makda Amdetsion and the saints of our ancestors. May peace return to the highlands and lowlands of our shared Geezland-home, and may the light of Geʽez wisdom guide us toward justice, unity, and moral renewal.

Preface

This Agaezi National Union-ANU Strategy is written at a time when the Greater Horn of Africa stands at a historical crossroads. The children of one ancient civilization, those bound by the Geʽez script, shared Geez culture and history, the Orthodox faith, and Habesha Islam, are caught in cycles of conflict that threaten to destroy the very moral and spiritual inheritance they share.

The Agaezi National Union (ANU) issues this strategic and moral document as both a call for peace and a blueprint for national renewal. Our purpose is not to dwell in grievance, but to awaken collective conscience, to rebuild trust, repair moral governance, and restore the Geʽezawit Covenant that once united the people of current Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara under one civilizational order of justice, humility, and shared destiny.

This document blends historical analysis, spiritual reflection, and strategic vision. It speaks to the mind and the conscience, to scholars and to the people, calling all who claim descent from the D’mnt, Adulis, Aksumite, Lalibela and Addis Ababa heritage to rise beyond division and restore Ethiopia’s true moral identity: Geʽezawit Ethiopia, the land of script, spirit, faith, civilization and cradle of mankind.

Breaking the Cycle of Civil War: A Strategic Framework for Unity among Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara under the Vision of Geʽezawit Ethiopia

1. Introduction: A Call to Restore the Geʽezawit Covenant

The Greater Horn of Africa is bleeding. Yet, beneath the ashes of war and betrayal, there remains a living soul,  the ancient moral covenant of Geʽezawit Ethiopia, the civilization that once illuminated Africa with literacy, faith, humanity, justice and accountable moral governance. The children of this covenant, in Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara are not destined to be enemies engaged in protracted civil wars for a lose-lose rather for a united habesha agaezi win-win harmonious condition. They are descendants of the same sacred civilization that spoke through the script of Geʽez, prayed in the same chants of Saint Yared, and upheld justice through faith and humility.

But today, brother turns against brother, sister turns against sister. Ancient kinships are broken by political manipulation, external interference, and ideological distortion. The wars between Eritrea and Tigray, and the conflict between Tigray and Amhara, are not mere territorial disputes, they are moral and civilizational ruptures. Each battle destroys another fragment of the same ancestral body, each act of vengeance silences another verse of the Geʽez hymn of peace.

The Agaezi National Union (ANU) issues this document not as a political statement but as a moral restoration charter, a call to conscience, unity, truth and origin. The crisis we face is not only political; it is spiritual. We must heal not only our borders but our souls. The power that once made Aksum a light to the world was not its armies, but its faith in justice, the belief that leadership was sacred trust and that moral truth was the foundation of legitimate public power.

If we are to break the cycle of civil war, we must return to this foundation. We must reawaken the Geʽezawit Covenant, the shared moral framework that united our ancestors across kingdoms, languages, and creeds. It is through this ancient light that the Habesha Agaezi and all peoples of the Horn shall once again find their path to sustainable peace and developmengt.

2. Historical Context: The Fracturing of the Habesha Agaezi Ethiopia Polity

The civilization of Geʽezawit Ethiopia was never a narrow kingdom; it was a moral commonwealth. From Dʿmt and Aksum to Zagwe and the Solomonic dynasties, it embodied a philosophy that linked divine order to just governance. The Geʽez script, evolving from Midre-Buhur (Agame, Agaezi, Geezawit Ethiopia) roots, became the visual symbol of this unity, a sacred vessel of law, liturgy, and history.

In those centuries, Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara were not separate nations but regions of one civilizational heartland and Geezland with its Red Sea. Merchants from Adulis traded with Arabia and India; priests from Debre Damo wrote hymns in the same Geʽez that monks in Lalibela and Axum would read; kings and queens were crowned by the same Church that spoke of one people under one moral law.

The fractures began when external forces, colonial ambitions, ideological intrusions, and foreign doctrines of race and revolution, penetrated the Holy Geezawit highlands. Italian colonialism divided Eritrea from Geezawit Ethiopia, embedding the poison of separation. Later, Marxist-Leninist ideologies weaponized ethnicity and class, teaching the children of the same civilization to hate in the name of “liberation”.

From Haile Selassie’s centralization to the Derg’s militarization, from TPLF’s ethnic federalism to Abiy Ahmed’s authoritarian anti-habesha agaezi (anti Geez) nationalism, each regime deepened the wound. The spiritual unity of the Geʽez world was replaced by political fragmentation, suspicion, and vengeance. What was once a moral polity became a battlefield of competing nationalisms.

Today, we see the tragic result: the very people who share one ancestry, one script, and one faith are divided by artificial boundaries and political deceit. This is not destiny, it is generational distortion. The task of the Agaezi National Union is to heal this fracture through a conscious return to the civilizational principles of Geʽezawit Ethiopia,  truth, justice, humility, and peace.

3. The Moral and Civilizational Roots of Unity

At the heart of the Geʽezawit civilization lies a simple yet profound truth: to govern is to serve, and to serve is to sanctify. Both Habesha Agaezi Christianity and Habesha Agaezi Islam share this ethic, the ruler as shepherd, the community as moral trust.

The Orthodox faith gave us not only theology but a way of governance rooted in the covenant between God, the ruler, and the people. The Islamic heritage of the Habesha lowlands brought humility, justice, and hospitality , all grounded in the same Abrahamic moral lineage. Together, they formed a Geʽezawit moral order that valued compassion, learning, and law.

The Geʽez script is not merely an alphabet, it is the spiritual architecture of this unity. Each symbol embodies balance and sound, a reflection of divine order. To restore peace, we must return to this harmony, reintroducing Geʽez literacy, Geʽez moral education, and the Geʽez philosophy of justice into our schools, churches, and mosques.

The moral renaissance of Geʽezawit Ethiopia begins not in politics but in cultural and spiritual renewal. Only when we speak again in the moral language of our ancestors can we overcome the divisions sown by modern politics.

4. Diagnosis – Why Civil War Persists

To heal a wound, one must first expose its depth. The wars among Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara are not spontaneous eruptions; they are the fruits of a poisoned tree planted over a century of betrayal, ideological manipulation, and the loss of moral center. The cycle of civil war persists because the heart of governance in our region has drifted far from the Geʽezawit Covenant,  the unity of moral order and political responsibility.

The Agaezi National Union identifies five principal causes that perpetuate these conflicts:

4.1. The Loss of the Geʽez Moral Compass

When leadership ceases to be sacred duty and becomes mere competition for power, governance turns predatory. From the imperial collapse through the Derg and the TPLF–EPRDF order to today’s militarized state, rulers have sought control, not conscience. They have replaced the Geʽez moral order, which was rooted in justice and divine accountability, with political pragmatism devoid of spiritual legitimacy.

In the absence of moral governance, truth is sacrificed for propaganda, and community becomes replaced by faction. This spiritual vacuum feeds cycles of vengeance, mistrust, and rebellion.

4.2. The Politicization of Identity

Ethnicity, which was once a reflection of cultural richness within one civilizational family, has been turned into a weapon of division. The federal order born after 1991 institutionalized ethnic boundaries as political frontiers, transforming natural diversity into a system of rivalry and fear.

Instead of celebrating their shared Aksumite roots, Eritreans, Tigrayans, and Amharas were taught to see themselves as separate nations with competing destinies. This political engineering, reinforced by external actors, dissolved the unity of the Habesha Agaezi moral imagination.

The Agaezi National Union affirms that language is a bridge, not a barrier. Language has no borders, no colors, and cannot be confined to a single nation. It is a shared vessel of thought, memory, and culture, a living testament to the unity and diversity of Geʽezawit Ethiopia.

In our strategy, we recognize that no linguistic difference should be wielded as a tool of division. Instead, the Geʽez script, the common threads of Habesha Agaezi languages, and the oral traditions of our peoples are celebrated as instruments of connection, understanding, and collective identity.

By embracing language as a unifier rather than a separator, ANU commits to fostering inclusive dialogue, bridging communities, and building a shared moral and historical consciousness that transcends regional, ethnic, or political divides. Language, in its highest form, becomes a conduit for justice, peace, and reconciliation.

ANU holds that ethnic identity should never be the foundation of political sovereignty; rather, it should be a thread within the greater tapestry of Geʽezawit civilization.

The Agaezi National Union asserts that Ethiopia’s current language-based ethnic federal system has unintentionally deepened divisions and fostered conflict. To break the cycle of civil strife, we advocate for a fundamental reform: the establishment of a civil national constitution rooted in the shared heritage and fundamental values of Geʽezawit Ethiopia.

This constitution would protect all Ethiopians equally, transcending ethnic, linguistic, and regional divides. It would enshrine the moral and historical principles of the Geʽez civilization, the Orthodox and Habesha Islamic traditions, and the shared values of our peoples. By grounding the nation in a unified civil identity, rather than fragmenting along linguistic or ethnic lines, the state can provide equitable rights, justice, and representation to every citizen.

Such a constitution would serve as both a shield and a compass: protecting communities from targeted marginalization while guiding Ethiopia toward reconciliation, shared prosperity, and enduring peace. ANU is unwavering in its determination to advocate, educate, and mobilize for this transformative vision, ensuring that the moral and cultural heritage of our nation informs every step of the process.

4.3. The Instrumentalization of History

History, when told dishonestly, becomes a weapon. The same events, the Aksumite empire, the Solomonic legacy, the resistance to Italy, the Eritrean federation, are retold differently in Asmara, Mekelle, Bahir Dar and Addis Ababa, each narrative designed to justify isolation or vengeance among the united and connected Habesha Agaezi Communities.

This distortion erases shared memory. The people who once prayed in the same Geʽez tongue now accuse each other of betrayal based on manipulated histories. The moral purpose of history, to teach humility and continuity, has been lost.

ANU asserts that truthful historical reconstruction, grounded in the shared Geʽezawit narrative, is essential for reconciliation. History must heal, not divide.

4.4. External Manipulation and Neo-Colonial Interests

Foreign powers have long exploited divisions among the children of Geʽez. From Italy’s colonial strategy of divide and rule, to Cold War interventions, to modern geopolitical rivalries over the Red Sea, Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara have been used as instruments, not recognized as sovereign partners of the Greater Geezawit Ethiopia with its Red Sea.

Regional and global actors profit from instability, arming factions, funding propaganda, and rewarding warlords while civilians suffer. This pattern continues today, where external aid and diplomacy often reinforce division instead of encouraging unity.

The ANU calls for Geʽezawit self-determination, not in the ethnic sense, but in the civilizational and values sense: the right of the people of the Horn to define peace, governance, and moral destiny on their own ancestral terms.

4.5. The Psychological Legacy of Fear and Revenge

Decades of war have created a moral exhaustion, a collective trauma that shapes memory, speech, and politics. Each region now fears domination by the other. The fear of Amhara centralism, the fear of Tigrayan militarism, the fear of Eritrean authoritarianism, all mirror one another. Each side sees the other through a lens of wounded pride.

As long as fear and humiliation remain unhealed, reconciliation will be impossible. The ANU recognizes that psychological restoration, through truth-telling, public remembrance, and cultural healing, is as vital as political reform.

4.6. Summary

The civil wars persist not because our people hate one another, but because they have forgotten that they are one habehsa agaezi people. The Eritrean, Tigrayan, and Amhara are three names for one ancient Geez civilization fractured by foreign design and moral decay. The solution is not a new constitution or treaty alone, it is the moral reawakening of Geʽezawit Ethiopia: a political order guided by faith, humility, justice, and truth.

5. The ANU Strategy for Breaking the Cycle of Civil War

The Agaezi National Union (ANU) believes that peace cannot be negotiated merely as a political settlement, it must be reborn as a moral covenant. The wars among Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara are symptoms of a deeper illness: the loss of shared identity, the abandonment of moral governance, and the absence of a unifying national philosophy and original narration based on its norms, values and shared heritages and existential harmony.

To heal this, ANU proposes a five-pillar strategy rooted in the restoration of Geʽezawit Ethiopia, a civilization of conscience, knowledge, and justice. Each pillar combines political action, cultural revival, and spiritual renewal.

5.1. Pillar One: Reclaiming the Script and Soul, The Geʽez Cultural Renaissance

At the foundation of unity lies a shared language of identity. The Geʽez script, the mother of all Ethiopian–Eritrean languages, is not only a writing system but the symbol of civilization itself. Its letters carried sacred law, music, and knowledge for millennia, whereby lots of higher institutions and universities in the western world are investing and learning it for their purpose, wisdom and sacred literatures of science, medicine, technology and astronomy.

ANU calls for a Geʽez Cultural Renaissance, involving:

• Reintroduction of Geʽez literacy in schools, seminaries, and cultural centers.
• Promotion of Saint Yared’s liturgical and musical tradition as a unifying heritage across Orthodox and Islamic communities.
• Academic revival of Geʽez philosophy and ethics as part of moral education.
• Cross-regional cultural councils linking Tigray, Eritrea, and Amhara to preserve shared heritage through festivals, art, and heritage institutions.

Through culture, we rebuild memory; through memory, we rebuild unity of all Habesha Agaezi communities wordlwide, a noble and original mission of ANU.

5.2. Pillar Two: Moral Governance and the Geʽezawit Administrative System

Political reform without moral foundation only reshapes tyranny. ANU envisions a new system of administration grounded in the ethics of Geʽezawit governance, leadership as sacred stewardship.

Core actions include:

• Formation of regional moral councils (of elders, scholars, clergy, and civic leaders) to mediate disputes and guide political reconciliation.
• Reinstatement of moral accountability in governance, leaders judged not only by results but by adherence to truth, humility, and service.
• Development of a “Geʽezawit Code of Ethics for Leadership,” derived from traditional sources such as Fetha Negest and Hadith al-‘Adl (the justice tradition in Habesha Islam).
• Training in moral leadership for ANU youth and public administrators.

Governance rooted in morality restores trust, and trust is the foundation of peace as far as ANU mission is concerned.

5.3. Pillar Three: Restoring Shared History and the Narrative of Truth

History must be reclaimed from propaganda. ANU will lead a Historical Truth and Reconciliation Initiative to reconstruct a unified narrative of the Habesha Agaezi civilization (Geezawit Ethiopia with its Red Sea).

This pillar will:

• Establish joint academic commissions between scholars from Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara to produce a single, documented narrative of D’mnt, Adulis, Aksumite, Solomonic, and modern history of Addis Ababa.
• Promote public truth dialogues, not tribunals of vengeance, but forums of confession and remembrance.
• Support documentaries, archives, and memorials that honor victims on all sides while emphasizing shared suffering.
• Introduce a “Day of Habesha Agaezi Reconciliation”, celebrating forgiveness and the rebirth of unity among Geezawit Ethiopia communities worldwide.

By healing historical memory, we disarm the weapons of narrative warfare that sustain civil conflict, transform it into a win-win cohesive strategic move that makes the Horn war free zone and suitable for business and prosperity given its naturally strategic atmosphere.

5.4. Pillar Four: The Sea of Geʽezawit Ethiopia, Economic and Maritime Integration

No civilization can survive without economic cooperation. The Sea of Geʽezawit Ethiopia, the Red Sea and its surrounding highlands,  has always been the lifeblood of our civilization. From Adulis to Massawa to Zeila, our ancestors thrived by connecting sea and highland as Habesha Agaezi Ethiopians.

ANU envisions a Red Sea Integration Zone guided by principles of mutual benefit and shared sovereignty, emphasizing:

• Joint economic projects between Eritrea, northern Geezawit Ethiopia, and coastal regions.
• Maritime infrastructure, transport, and energy cooperation under regional moral agreements.
• Youth exchange and vocational initiatives linking coastal and highland communities.
• Environmental protection of the Red Sea ecosystems as a sacred trust.
• Economic interdependence restores practical unity; shared prosperity becomes a bulwark against war.

5.5. Pillar Five: The Public National Constitution of Geʽezawit Ethiopia

ANU’s ultimate goal is to reestablish a Public National Constitution inspired by the spirit of Geʽezawit Ethiopia, one that harmonizes faith, democracy, and collective dignity.

This constitution must be:

• Moral – founded on truth, compassion, and justice rather than power.
• Inclusive – embracing all peoples of the Horn, both Christian and Muslim, as children of one Geez civilization.
• Transnational in spirit – binding Eritrea, Tigray, and Amhara through federative moral principles, not through coercion.
• Forward-looking – integrating modern human rights with the timeless ethics of Geʽez law.

The Public Constitution of Geʽezawit Ethiopia is not merely a legal text; it is a covenant of conscience, a pledge that no brother shall again raise his hand against another, that governance shall be sacred duty, and that peace shall be the ultimate measure of leadership.

5.6. Summary: The Spiritual Dimension of Strategy

The ANU strategy is not only political, it is spiritual renewal through moral reawakening. Peace will not come from treaties alone, but from the return of conscience in every village, school, and place of worship.

The rebirth of Geʽezawit Ethiopia demands courage, humility, and a shared act of remembrance. It is the moral revolution that will finally break the chain of war.

6. Implementation Framework: Building Peace through Action and Institution

The transition from vision to transformation requires organization. To break the centuries-old cycle of civil conflict, ANU must construct institutions of peace that are as durable as the forces of war. This section provides the institutional roadmap, implementation stages, and mechanisms for accountability that will guide the Agaezi National Union and its partners.

6.1. Foundational Principle

The foundation of implementation is Tibebawi Medrek, the wise table of collective counsel.
Every ANU activity must combine:

1. Moral legitimacy (Geʽez ethics),
2. Cultural continuity (Habesha Agaezi heritage), and
3. Practical efficiency (modern management and coordination).

Through these, the movement maintains balance between spirit and structure, between the soul of Geʽez and the system of Agaezi governance.

6.2. Institutional Structure for Peacebuilding

6.2.1. ANU Peace and Civilization Council (APCC)

• Composition: Senior scholars, clergy, and traditional elders representing Eritrea, Tigray, Amhara, and allied communities.
• Mandate:
  • Provide moral oversight of ANU policies.
  • Guide inter-regional reconciliation and religious dialogue.
  • Issue annual “Ethical Directives” for political and administrative leaders.
• Symbolic role: Custodian of the Covenant of Geʽezawit Unity.

6.2.2. National Secretariat for Geʽezawit Renaissance (NSGR)

• Coordinates educational and cultural programs.
• Develops Geʽez language curriculum and teacher training.
• Oversees preservation of manuscripts, chants, and heritage sites.

6.6. Symbolic and Spiritual Foundations

Each meeting, training, or policy session shall begin with a Reading of Geʽez Wisdom, verses from the Fetha Negest, Book of Sirach, or Hadith al-Adl,  reaffirming that leadership is divine service, not privilege.

Peace is not achieved through arms, but through the restoration of menfesawi serawit, the spiritual army of conscience.

6.7. Expected Outcomes

By the conclusion of the ten-year implementation plan, ANU envisions:

1. Unified cultural identity across Geez highland and Geez coastal regions, anchored in Geʽez heritage.
2. Institutionalized peace infrastructure capable of mediating internal conflicts.
3. Reversal of the civil-war narrative through shared history and collective prosperity.
4. Regional cooperation grounded in ethical governance rather than coercive politics.
5. A moral awakening — a return to conscience as the compass of leadership.

7. Policy Recommendations and the Path Toward a Geʽezawit Confederation of Peace

The vision of a Geʽezawit Confederation of Peace is not merely an aspirational ideal, it is a strategic framework for sustainable stability in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and the Horn of Africa. Building upon the moral, cultural, and institutional foundations outlined in Section 6, this section provides concrete policy recommendations for ANU members, regional leaders, and international partners.

7.1. National-Level Policy Recommendations

7.1.1. Cultural Integration as a Tool of Peace

• Promote joint curricula emphasizing Geʽez history, narrative, civilization, script, language, and ethical governance across Eritrean and Ethiopian regions.
• Support interfaith forums bringing together Orthodox, Islamic, and other communities to highlight shared Habesha Agaezi moral heritage.
• Foster regional literary, musical, and artistic festivals celebrating the shared Geʽez civilization.

7.1.2. Constitutional Dialogue and Federal Reforms

• Initiate a consultative process for a Public Constitution of Geʽezawit Ethiopia reflecting historical precedents from Geʽez administration and ethical governance.
• Recommend mechanisms to reconcile self-determination with regional sovereignty, incorporating lessons from Eritrean secession and Ethiopian federal dynamics.
• Embed conflict-resolution protocols and moral accountability clauses inspired by Fetha Negest and Islamic principles of justice.

7.1.3. Institutionalized Conflict Prevention

• Empower the ANU Peace and Civilization Council to mediate disputes between Tigray, Amhara, Eritrean, and other regional actors.
• Establish a Rapid Response Peace Mediation Team composed of respected elders, scholars, and clergy to intervene before conflicts escalate.
• Monitor and report on human-rights violations, ensuring transparency and advocacy for justice through international networks.

7.2. Regional and Cross-Border Policy Recommendations

7.2.1. Geʽezawit Maritime and Trade Cooperation

• Strengthen the Sea of Geʽezawit Ethiopia program, linking Eritrean and northern Ethiopian ports with regional trade corridors.
• Promote joint economic development projects, including fisheries, sustainable agriculture, and energy-sharing agreements, with moral oversight from the APCC.
• Integrate cultural heritage tourism to encourage inter-regional understanding and shared prosperity.

7.2.2. Diplomatic Engagements

• Engage African Union mechanisms to mediate historical grievances, ensuring recognition of Habesha Agaezi shared moral identity as a framework for peace.
• Advocate at the UN and international forums for support in cultural preservation, reconciliation, and post-conflict development.
• Encourage dialogue with diaspora networks to build a global coalition for Geʽezawit ethical governance.

7.3. Educational and Cultural Diplomacy

• Launch the Geʽezawit Scholar Exchange Program to train young leaders in conflict resolution, historical research, and moral leadership.
• Establish Peace Academies in key cities: Addis Ababa, Asmara, Mekelle, Bahirdar and Lalibela, focused on ethical governance, civil-military relations, and Geʽezawit literacy.
• Disseminate publications on Geezawit Ethiopia history, blending academic rigor with spiritual-moral reflections to influence policy and public opinion.

7.4. Moral and Spiritual Policy Anchors

The Geʽezawit Confederation of Peace relies on moral authority as much as structural organization:

1. Shared Sacred Texts: Promote understanding of Orthodox and Islamic ethical principles as common moral anchors.
2. Community Conscience Councils: Establish local councils tasked with monitoring ethical leadership and civic behavior.
3. Ritualized Peace Practices: Encourage public rituals of reconciliation, including ceremonies at churches, mosques, and heritage sites.

These anchors provide a spiritual compass, ensuring that political and economic reforms are aligned with cultural integrity and ethical responsibility.

7.5. Actionable Steps Toward Confederation

1. Formation of the Geʽezawit Confederation Preparatory Committee (GCPC):
   • Members drawn from ANU, regional leaders, religious authorities, and civil society.
   • Mandate: draft a confederation charter, coordinate pilot projects, and monitor compliance with moral standards.
2. Pilot Regional Integration Projects:
   • Cultural: joint historical exhibitions, heritage restoration projects.
   • Economic: shared resource management (water, agriculture, and trade).
   • Security: integrated peacekeeping units trained under ANU principles.
3. Diplomatic and Policy Advocacy:
   • Seek recognition of confederation initiatives by AU, UN, and regional states.
   • Establish regular conferences and workshops to promote Geʽezawit unity as a model for ethical governance in Africa.
4. Monitoring and Evaluation:
   • Biannual progress reports published by the APCC and THMC.
   • Periodic review by international scholars and regional elders to maintain credibility and moral authority.

7.6. Expected Outcomes

By executing these strategies, ANU envisions:

• A stable political environment bridging Tigray, Amhara, Eritrean, and allied communities.
• The institutionalization of peace, cultural preservation, and economic cooperation.
• Elevation of Geʽezawit Ethiopia as a model of ethical governance, spiritual integrity, and historical consciousness.
• Generation of new regional narratives that replace cycles of retaliation with shared moral purpose.

7.7. Closing Reflection

The Geʽezawit Confederation of Peace is more than policy, it is a covenant with history and conscience. ANU’s work will honor the wisdom of our ancestors, the sacrifices of the martyrs, and the shared destiny of Habesha Agaezi peoples.

Civil war ends not only when weapons are silenced, but when hearts recognize the moral imperative of coexistence. As we implement this framework, let every action, dialogue, and institution reflect the eternal spirit of Geʽez: that unity, justice, and wisdom are the true shields of a nation.

8. Conclusion

The cycle of inter-ethnic and regional conflict in Ethiopia and Eritrea has deep historical roots, yet it is not immutable. Through the prism of Geʽezawit Ethiopia, ANU envisions a society that reconciles centuries of political fragmentation with a shared moral and cultural identity. The following points summarize the core insights:

1. Historical Consciousness as a Tool for Unity: Recognizing the political, cultural, and religious legacies of the Geʽez civilization provides a common framework for dialogue and reconciliation.
2. Ethical Governance Anchored in Tradition: Drawing on Orthodox, Islamic, and Habesha Agaezi moral principles ensures that political and military authority respects human dignity.
3. Institutionalized Conflict Prevention: The establishment of councils, rapid mediation teams, and moral oversight bodies creates resilience against future escalation.
4. Regional Collaboration over Territorial Rivalry: Economic, cultural, and maritime initiatives demonstrate the benefits of shared prosperity and mutual interdependence.

Through the above, the ANU lays the foundation for a Geʽezawit Confederation of Peace, a bold yet feasible vision that unites peoples across historical, linguistic, and religious divides.

9. Recommendations for Policy and Future Research

9.1 Policy Recommendations

• National Reconciliation Framework: Initiate a National Truth and Ethical Reconciliation Program drawing on Geʽez judicial and moral traditions.
• Constitutional Reform: Embed moral accountability, shared heritage recognition, and decentralized governance in a Public Constitution of Geʽezawit Ethiopia.
• Cultural Diplomacy: Establish Geʽezawit cultural centers in Addis Ababa, Mekelle, Asmara, and Lalibela, promoting shared history, script literacy, and moral education.
• Regional Security Cooperation: Develop integrated peacekeeping and conflict-prevention units trained in historical and ethical conflict resolution.
• Diaspora Engagement: Mobilize the global Habesha community for intellectual, moral, and financial support for peace-building initiatives.

9.2 Future Research Directions

• Comprehensive historical studies on periphery versus center conflict, emphasizing the Tigray–Amhara–Eritrean nexus.
• Ethnographic research on shared Habesha Agaezi cultural practices that promote inter-community trust.
• Legal studies comparing self-determination and federal sovereignty, informed by the 1962 Eritrea annexation and 1993 referendum.
• Sociological analysis of moral identity and communal resilience, drawing on Orthodox and Islamic ethical frameworks.

10. Implementation and Action Framework

1. Immediate Actions (0–6 months)
   • Establish the Geʽezawit Confederation Preparatory Committee (GCPC).
   • Launch interfaith and inter-regional forums to establish trust and dialogue channels.
   • Draft the Public Constitution of Geʽezawit Ethiopia incorporating shared ethical standards.

11. ANU’s Determination and Commitment to the Geʽezawit Peace Strategy

The Agaezi National Union (ANU) stands unwavering in its determination to break the cycle of interregional conflict and build a future anchored in the shared moral, spiritual, and historical identity of Geʽezawit Ethiopia. This is not merely a political endeavor, it is a sacred duty to the generations of Habesha Agaezi peoples, to the Orthodox heritage, to the Habesha Agaezi Islam, to the legacy of the Geʽez script, and to the cultural and religious traditions that have long united our communities.

ANU members affirm, with steadfast courage and clarity of purpose, that the pursuit of this strategy will be guided by five core commitments:

1. Historical Integrity: Every action taken is grounded in a deep understanding of the historical experiences of the Amhara, Tigray, Eritrean, Gurage, Harari, Zey, Agew, Gedeo, Sidama, Somali, Addis Ababa, Nazreth, Debrezeit, Jimma, Wollega, Diredawa, Shashemene and other Habesha communities. We acknowledge past injustices and strive to prevent their recurrence through informed, conscientious policy and advocacy.
2. Cultural and Spiritual Anchoring: Our strategies draw strength from the moral wisdom of Geʽez civilization, the enduring values of Orthodox Christianity, and the pluralistic richness of Habesha Islam. The preservation and respect of these cultural and spiritual pillars are central to all ANU initiatives.
3. Inclusive Collaboration: ANU is committed to engaging regional leaders, community elders, scholars, and activists in a process of open dialogue and shared decision-making. We recognize that sustainable peace and justice require the active participation of all stakeholders, united by a common vision of Geʽezawit Ethiopia with its Red Sea.
4. Strategic Action: The ANU will operationalize this vision through coordinated programs, community outreach, policy development, and advocacy. Each initiative will be evidence-based, historically informed, and oriented toward long-term reconciliation and stability.
5. Moral Responsibility: Beyond politics and strategy, ANU members are motivated by a profound sense of ethical duty. We are custodians of the collective memory, culture, and spiritual heritage of Geʽezawit Ethiopia with its Red Sea. Our commitment is to defend human dignity, uphold justice, and foster a moral and equitable society that transcends historical divisions.

The ANU will pursue this strategy with unwavering courage, disciplined organization, and enduring hope. Each member, each leader, and each collaborator is called to serve not only as an agent of positive generational change but as a guardian of the Geʽezawit moral and historical legacy within the Greater Horn of Africa and beyond.

In this determination, ANU affirms: peace is not an abstract ideal, it is a tangible mission, achievable through unity, wisdom, and unwavering commitment to the principles that define our shared identity.

12. Final Reflection

The journey toward sustainable peace in Ethiopia and Eritrea is not only political, it is moral, spiritual, cultural and eventually a matter of win-win survival instead of loss-loss extinction of Habesha Agaezi community in the Greater Horn of Africa. The ANU vision calls on members, leaders, and activists to embrace Geʽezawit identity as a shared moral compass. Every decision, policy, and dialogue must honor our ancestors, respect human dignity, and prioritize unity over division among all Habesha Agaezi communities regardless of religious, gender and other installed divisive ideologies and intentions.

Let this ANU Strategy serve as both a blueprint and a covenant: the generation that transforms the cycle of war into a cycle of ethical governance and shared prosperity, rooted in the eternal wisdom of Geʽez, the only script based civilization in Africa and piooner for other script based civilizations worldwide.

  We are the Agaezi National Union (ANU) Political Party for Greater Geez Ethiopia and its Red Sea! Agaezi National Union (ANU) is a new, pragmatic, visionary, and energetic political party dedicated to restoring our Red Sea heritage and reviving the glory of the Aksumite Civilization.

Our Slogan: “United We Stand and Restore Our Shared Geez Civilization, Divided We Fail!” This guiding principle embodies the ANU’s vision for a unified Geezawit Ethiopia. It reminds us that the strength of our nation lies not in fragmentation along ethnic, linguistic, or regional lines, but in the unity of our shared history, culture, and moral identity.

Through a civil national constitution grounded in the enduring values of Geʽez civilization, Orthodox and Habesha Islamic heritage, and the collective experience of our peoples, Ethiopia can achieve justice, reconciliation, and lasting peace. ANU members, regional leaders, and activists are called upon to embody this unity in thought, dialogue, and action.

Our commitment is unwavering: to protect all Ethiopians equally, honor our shared legacy, and transform our moral and historical identity into a force that binds rather than divides. Together, we will restore the greatness of our shared geez civilization, narrative, heritage, culture and ensure that our people stand strong, united, and proud in the Horn and beyond worldwide.
