Abstract
This work highlights crucial developments in Ethiopian education such as the role of the Italian occupation in promoting an enhanced state-forming process and educational developments, the views of the main political actors to modern schooling, the role the Board of Education played in controlling and advancing the official nationalist policy of the Hayla-Sellase regime, and the intended and unintended consequences of the new education. The study concludes that the rate of educational development and the main features of the system were determined by the demands of the state-forming process.
