Selassie was an ideal student
One of the interesting facts about Haile Selassie is that he is an ideal student. Haile Selassie put in a lot of effort and demonstrated intellect throughout her education despite coming from an aristocratic family. His great sense of observation was one of his best qualities as a student. He is believed to pay attention to nuances that others frequently miss.
His father saw potential in such a talent. Selassie took charge of Ethiopia's local militia in 1905 when he was just 13 years old. He was appointed governor of the Gara Maleta province of Harar a year later. During the First Italo-Ethiopian War, he served as a commander and was crucial in the Battle of Adwa. As a result, Woizero Tenagnework Sahle Selassie, the paternal grandmother of Emperor Menelik II and the daughter of Solomonic King Amhara of Shewa, Negus Sahle Selassie, allowed Haile Selassie to succeed to the throne. As a result, Haile Selassie asserts that he is a direct descendant of King Solomon of ancient Israel and Makeda, Queen of Sheba.
In addition, he took up the role of Selale's formal governor in 1906, a position of minor significance that yet allowed him to further his education. Haile Selassie did make the prediction that we will rule Ethiopia well even as a toddler.
