With the restoration of Haile Selassie in 1941, following the liberation of Ethiopia from the Italian rule, a reinvigorated government pursued a policy of centralization by weakening the provincial nobility, the bureaucratization of the state apparatus, the formation of a professional army, and the launching of modern education. There was little scope in this process for the integration of the various ethnic groups, beyond the selective incorporation of individuals who accepted assimilation into the Amhara culture and society. To the extent they were successful, these policies greatly increased the power of the imperial autocrat, and solidified the Amhara dominance in the state and economy.

Despite his reputation, Haile Selassie's regime was ultimately toppled by the weight of official corruption, bad governance and his failure to resolve the "national question". The emperor had cultivated both at home and abroad a myth that Ethiopia was a multi-ethnic but unitary nation-state. However, by the early 1970s, Ethiopia's poverty, gross inequalities, political and economical underdevelopment laid bare the lack of a foundation for such a myth.
