Ethiopia, located in the horn of Africa, is the oldest independent nation in Africa. This highly populated country maintains some of the best national parks in Africa and its cuisine has become a commonplace in many large U.S. cities. Travel to Ethiopia is made simple by Ethiopian Airlines, which continues to be a well-known travel provider for the region.
