dc.description.abstract	This thesis tries to reconstruct the socio-political history of Limmu Wdrdda, which is located in the present day east Wallaga Zone. The period within which the reconstruction of the '1:7 history of the wdrdda focused is the twentieth century. The thesis employed methods such as careful collection of available written sources followed by the identification of archives and other official documents from the Ethiopian National Archive Center and Library Agency at Addis Ababa, East Wallaga, and Horro-Guduru Wallaga Zones as well as Limmu Wdrdda administrative offices. Oral information is collected from informants that in turn followed by · detail study, crosschecking, and systematic interpretation of all the sources in qualitative method. • The socio-economic, politico-cultural and tradition of Limmu Wdrdda were replaced by the . ' Abstract ndftdiui-gdbbar system right after the incorporatio"!_ of Limmu to the Ethiopian empire at the end of 19th century. Thus, the incorporation of Limmu to the Ethiopian Empire under Menelik II marked the supremacy of the soldiers locally called Gonddres in Limmu until the Clian occupation of the wdrdda in 1937. The administrative structuring and restructuring of Limmu during the imperial government in the post-liberation period could not bring significant socio-economic and political improvements in the life of the wdrdda 's people. Rather, it pacified the exploitation of the people in varieties of dimensions up to the Ethiopian revolution of 1974 that brought about the overthrow of the imperial government. The 1<J74 Ethiopian revolution marked the replacement of the old oppressive imperial regime	en_US
