display errors in Tokyo article
Hi - I see you took out the "div" I added to the Tokyo article. Can you let me know what the problem was? On my browser the new version shows the image of the bridge to the left of the information table aligned at the top of the article, leaving a very narrow strip of text to the left of the picture. As it was, the picture was placed below the table. I'm curious what the issue was. Thanks. -- Rick Block 22:46, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Can you look at the Tokyo article again? I added a "div" with slightly different parameters that I'm hoping is OK when viewed with Firefox.  This version looks good with Mac/Safari and Windows/IE.  Thanks.  -- Rick Block (talk) 16:52, May 28, 2005 (UTC)

 * Looks perfect now in both Firefox and IE. Nice work -- Nonsequiturmine 07:31, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Australiapostlogo.gif
This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Australiapostlogo.gif. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine

Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine is an administrative region of Quebec consisting of the Gaspé Peninsula (Gaspésie) and the Îles-de-la-Madeleine. It lies in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence at the eastern extreme of southern Quebec. The predominant economic activities are fishing, forestry and tourism.

Region
The administrative region of Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine was created on December 22, 1987. It brings together two geographical units: the Gaspé peninsula (20,102.69 km2) and the Magdalen Islands archipelago (205.4 km2). The population was 90,311 at the time of the 2016 census. The region's interior, 80% of which is covered by coniferous forests, is among the most rugged terrain in the province. Rich soils cover the land along the coast and within the region's river valleys. Important mineral deposits are also found in this region.

Forty-two local municipalities are located in the Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine region, along with seven unorganized territories, two reserves, and one Mi'kmaq community. With the exception of a few villages, the entire population is spread out along the coast, in villages with fewer than 5,000 inhabitants. Its largest community is the city of Gaspé (2011 population 15,163), near the tip of the peninsula.

The region has undergone many stresses which have influenced the evolution of its economy. The decrease in population as well as in primary resources, the weak diversity of secondary economic activities, and the seasonal nature of many of its jobs are all elements that explain the fragility of the job market. Tourism plays a vital part in the region's economy.

Talk:Sud Aviation

Untitled
I don't know the procedure here, but this article is a pretty close paraphrasing of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th paragraphs on this page: http://www.centennialofflight.gov/essay/Aerospace/Sud/Aero48.htm

I don't know whether this is considered plagarism, because it is mostly paraphrased, but the page is not cited and the content and flow are almost identical. I do not know how to proceed, so I shall add the page to the references section.

--IRelayer 22:41, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * I think that's the correct way to go about it. No copyright infringement seems to have taken place, since the actual wording differs, but it should have been cited as a reference (probably the only one used).  The page possibly predates the more widespread insistence on citing one's sources. Given that Wikipedia is not being done for personal credit, plagiarism is not problematic in the same way as in, say, a college paper - but it is poor form and shows an article that is poorly sourced. —Morven 00:14, Apr 16, 2005 (UTC)

Fate and successor in info box
There seems to be an inconsistency between these details in the info box. The sequence of events is fairly unambiguous: Sud merged into Aérospatiale which in turn merged into EADS. However the infobox seems to imply that Sud continued to exist within Aérospatiale but ceased to exist within EADS. You can make a convincing argument either way but since both transitions were mergers treating them differently in this manner seems inconsistent. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CrispMuncher (talk • contribs)

 * I've removed EADS, since it is not a direct successor, and moved Aérospatiale to the "Successor" field. Infoboxes are meant simply to present a brief overview of information, not a complete history. Further expansion should be limited to the text. - BillCJ (talk) 22:34, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

"products: jet aircraft"
No mention of the pioneering work of SA, eventually becoming the world's leading helicopter manufacturer? See: Alouette, Frelon, Puma. --BjKa (talk) 14:19, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

 * So fix it. - BilCat (talk) 14:55, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Ok, I fixed it myself, only 4 years late! :) - BilCat (talk) 07:55, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified 2 external links on Sud Aviation. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
 * Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20050309070941/http://www.centennialofflight.gov/essay/Aerospace/Sud/Aero48.htm to http://www.centennialofflight.gov/essay/Aerospace/Sud/Aero48.htm
 * Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20050419023540/http://www.centennialofflight.gov/ to http://www.centennialofflight.gov/

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Cheers.— InternetArchiveBot  (Report bug) 07:21, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

Hyphen
The article is currently named Sud Aviation, but the lead sentence uses only the form Sud-Aviation, and both versions are used in the text. The corresponding French Wikipedia article uses Sud-Aviation consistently.

This makes sense if the unhyphenated form is/was typical usage in English, but if that's the case the article should talk about it. If it's just carelessness, it should be fixed. --76.71.5.208 (talk) 18:44, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

 * As far as I can tell, the form without the hyphen is the one normally used in English. It was used in the Lead until changed about 3 years ago without discussion by a French speaker. I've reverted to the standard form. As far as mentioning the difference, without a source that addresses the use of the hyphen in this name, about all we can do is to add the French form without comment, as we usually do with words in other languages. I do note that the other Latin-character Wikipedias all appear to use the unhyphenated form. - BilCat (talk) 19:38, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

 * The french wikipedia has the definitive reference on that: the 30 december 1969 decree creating Sud-Aviation, with an hyphen: The hyphen may have been subsequently lost in later publications, then widespread in the english-speaking press, and then in the english wikipedia which is authoritative in other wikipedias.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 06:54, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Thanks, Marc. For now, I propose that we add "Sud-Aviation" as the official French name with the source, and leave it that. I hope we can avoid a situation like developed at Talk:Aérospatiale! That argument lasted for 4 years, and even spread to French Wikipedia, where a consensus was finally achieved. - BilCat (talk) 07:52, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Lovely Joan

Lovely Joan is a traditional English folk song/ballad (Roud #592), and the tune to which it is sung. Its melody was used as the counterpoint tune used in British composer Ralph Greaves's arrangement of Fantasia on "Greensleeves" from Ralph Vaughan Williams's opera Sir John in Love.

Lyrics
The words to "Lovely Joan," as printed in The Penguin Book of English Folk Songs, are as follows:

 * A fine young man it was indeed,
 * He was mounted on his milk-white steed;
 * He rode, he rode himself all alone,
 * Until he came to lovely Joan.

 * "Good morning to you, pretty maid."
 * And, "Twice good morning, sir", she said.
 * He gave her a wink, she rolled her eye.
 * Says he to himself, "I'll be there by and by."

 * "Oh don't you think those pooks of hay
 * A pretty place for us to play?
 * So come with me like a sweet young thing
 * And I'll give you my golden ring."

 * Then he pulled off his ring of gold.
 * "My pretty little miss, do this behold.
 * I'd freely give it for your maidenhead."
 * And her cheeks they blushed like the roses red.

 * "Give me that ring into my hand
 * And I will neither stay nor stand,
 * For this would do more good to me
 * Than twenty maidenheads," said she.

 * And as he made for the pooks of hay
 * She leaped on his horse and tore away.
 * He called, he called, but it was all in vain
 * Young Joan she never looked back again.

 * She didn't think herself quite safe,
 * No, not till she came to her true love's gate.
 * She's robbed him of his horse and ring,
 * And left him to rage in the meadows green.

Sung by C. Jay, Acle, Norfolk (R.V.W. 1908).

Other uses
The melody for Lovely Joan was used by Emerson, Lake & Powell on the track Touch and Go of their eponymous album Emerson Lake & Powell in 1986 (uncredited). This traditional English folk song/ballad was integrally covered by Bristol-based teenage folk quartet Folkal Point and released on their self-titled studio album in 1972 through Midas Recordings. Lovely Joan was performed by Miranda Sex Garden on their 1992 release Iris, marking their transition from a madrigal group to an ethereal wave sound.

The melody was used for a set of variations commissioned for the 2017 Presteigne Festival from a number of composers, who each wrote one variation. The composers were Thomas Hyde, David Matthews, Adrian Williams, Michael Berkeley, Christopher Gunning, Huw Watkins, Sally Beamish, and Matthew Taylor.

Gerald du Maurier

Sir Gerald Hubert Edward Busson du Maurier (26 March 1873 – 11 April 1934) was an English actor and manager. He was the son of author George du Maurier and his wife, Emma Wightwick, and the brother of Sylvia Llewelyn Davies. In 1903, he married the actress Muriel Beaumont, with whom he had three daughters: writers Angela du Maurier (1904–2002) and Dame Daphne du Maurier (1907–1989), and painter Jeanne du Maurier (1911–1997). His popularity was due to his subtle and naturalistic acting: a "delicately realistic style of acting that sought to suggest rather than to state the deeper emotions". His Times obituary said of his career: "His parentage assured him of engagements in the best of company to begin with; but it was his own talent that took advantage of them."

Early life
Gerald Hubert Edward Busson du Maurier was born on 26 March 1873 in Hampstead, London, the son of Emma (Wightwick) and George du Maurier, author and Punch cartoonist, who created the character of Svengali in the 1894 novel Trilby. During his childhood the family home was at New Grove House in Hampstead Grove.

He attended Heath Mount School and Harrow School. He initially pursued a career in business, but it did not suit him, and he began working as an actor. He obtained his first engagement, a small part in Sydney Grundy's An Old Jew, by means of his father's friend John Hare, manager of the Garrick Theatre.

J.M. Barrie
After playing a number of small roles before 1900, including a part in his father's popular drama Trilby with Herbert Beerbohm Tree in 1895, his popularity became assured as a result of his acclaimed performance in major roles during the premieres of two J.M. Barrie plays: as Ernest in The Admirable Crichton during 1902, and the dual role of George Darling and Captain Hook (instead of Seymour Hicks, who had refused the part) in Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, at the Duke of York's Theatre, London, on 27 December 1904. He also played in other Barrie plays, including Dear Brutus.

In 1902, during The Admirable Crichton, also in the cast was actress Muriel Beaumont as Lady Agatha. They were married five months later on 11 April 1903 at St Peter, Cranley Gardens, Kensington. Du Maurier and his wife had three children: the actress and writer Angela du Maurier (1904–2002), the writer Daphne du Maurier (1907–1989) and the painter Jeanne du Maurier (1911–1997). His wife retired from the stage in 1910.

His nephews, his sister Sylvia Llewelyn Davies's sons, were the inspiration for Peter Pan and other boy characters of Barrie's fiction. The character of Wendy Darling in Peter Pan shares one of her middle names with du Maurier's daughter Angela, who in later years portrayed Wendy onstage herself.

Theatre
With Frank Curzon, he co-managed Wyndham's Theatre from 1910 to 1925, and then worked for the St James's Theatre. Knighted during 1922 at the height of his popularity, he continued to perform throughout his life. During later years he acted in cinema roles such as Lord Camber's Ladies (1932), a German doctor in I Was a Spy (1933), the emperor's valet in Catherine the Great (1934) and, soon before his final illness, Weissensee in the Michael Balcon version of Jew Süss (1934).

Du Maurier cigarettes
Du Maurier was a regular cigarette smoker, and the du Maurier brand was named after him as a paid endorsement deal (he did not smoke them himself), to which he agreed to help pay taxes owed.

Charity work
He served as President of the Actors' Orphanage Fund (now the Actors' Charitable Trust) from 1914 to his death, when he was succeeded by Noël Coward.

Freemason
He joined the Freemasons' Green Room Lodge No. 2957 on 4 November 1904, an actors' lodge which included Leedham Bantock, Fred Terry and George Grossmith Jr. among its members.

Death
He died on 11 April 1934 of colon cancer, at Cannon Hall, Cannon Place, Hampstead, his home since 1916. A blue plaque has been placed at the house in his memory.

His middle daughter Daphne refused to attend his funeral but wrote a biography of him – Gerald: A Portrait – which was published soon after his death.

Plains Apache language

The Plains Apache language was a Southern Athabaskan language formerly spoken by the Plains Apache, organized as the Apache Tribe of Oklahoma, living primarily around Anadarko in southwest Oklahoma. The language is extinct as of 2008, when Alfred Chalepah, Jr., the last native speaker, died.

Plains Apache is the most divergent member of the Southern Athabaskan languages, a family which also includes Navajo, Chiricahua Apache, Mescalero Apache, Lipan Apache, Western Apache, and Jicarilla Apache. As a member of the broader Athabaskan family, it has an extremely complex system of verbal morphology, often enabling entire sentences to be constructed with only a verb.

Phonology
This article follows the orthography of Bittle (1963); where this differs from the IPA, IPA is given between slashes.

Consonants
Plains Apache has a large consonant inventory resembling that of its close relatives Navajo and Western Apache.

The phoneme is only found in prefixes and does not occur before. is in free variation with preceding  and also does not occur before. The fricated alveolar and postalveolar series are tend to be realized as slightly retroflex preceding and, though these variants are in free variation with the unretroflexed realizations. The plain alveolar and velar series are slightly fronted preceding and, and slightly backed and rounded preceding.

Vowels
Plains Apache distinguishes four vowel qualities, much like the other Southern Athabaskan languages. Additionally, all vowels may be either short or long and nasal or oral. Length is indicated in the orthography by writing the vowel twice (e.g. kóó, 'water'); nasalization is indicated with an ogonek (e.g. nǫ̀ǫ̀, 'earth'). When long, the realization of tends to be closer to, and when short, closer to. An analogous alternation is true of, although this variation is more free, and is lexicalized by some speakers in certain words.

Syllable Structure
The Plains Apache syllable is maximally CCV:C, e.g. stłèèh 'pants', though initial clusters are rare and must co-occur with a long vowel, making most syllables (C)V(C), e.g. xòòš 'cactus' and séé 'dust'. All consonants may appear in the syllable onset, although and a null onset are not permitted word-initially; only  and  may appear in the syllable coda, whether word-final or not.

Tone
Plains Apache has a register tone system with two levels, low and high. Low is written with a grave accent (e.g. bìs, 'bank'), and high is written with an acute accent (e.g. šéł, 'kindness'). Syllables with short vowels bear a single toneme, but those with long vowels have one toneme for each mora of the vowel, making for a total of four contours:

 * high-high, tʼǫ́ǫ́š, 'bark'
 * high-low, béè-lą̀ą̀ʔ, 'point'
 * low-high, gòóʔ, 'snake'
 * low-low, gààd, 'spread of cedars'

Nouns
Almost every noun in Plains Apache can optionally take a pronominal prefix to indicate its possessor. These prefixes are as follows (some of the prefixes have multiple forms in free variation; in these cases, the more common variant is listed first).

Some of these forms require further explanation. The indefinite third person may be used when the possessor is unknown, and is similar in meaning to 'someone's' (e.g. ʔí-bą̀ą̀s, 'a hoop owned by some unknown person'). The fourth person is reserved for possessors who are deemed to be in some way remote from the speaker, usually socially; compare bí-bą̀ą̀s, which would refer to a hoop belonging to someone who the speaker is familiar with and interacts with frequently and informally, and góó-bą̀ą̀s, used for someone who the speaker has a purely formal relationship with and does not know well.

The noun bases to which these prefixes can be added are of one of three classes: primary, compound, and nominalized. Primary noun bases are mostly monosyllabic stems such as t'èèš, 'charcoal', though a few of them seem to consist of an unidentified prefix and a stem (e.g. dèè-éh, 'antelope'), and some others are simply unanalyzable polysyllables, perhaps originally onomatopoeic (e.g. ʔą̀ą̀ʔą̀ʔ, 'magpie'). Many of the stem nouns have different forms depending on their morphological context, with an absolute form when unpossessed, an inflected form when possessed, and a combining form in compounds or nominalized phrases. The formation of these is generally irregular, although certain patterns do exist, such as initial x, s, and ł becoming ɣ, z, and l when inflected (e.g. sàà > bí-zàà, 'his language') and a final V:h becoming Vʔ (e.g. t'ààh > bí-t'áʔ, 'his feather').

Some stem nouns, especially those referring to body parts, are inalienably possessed, i.e. they cannot occur without a possessor prefix (e.g. bí-dààh, 'his lips', but not *dààh). In these cases the indefinite prefix must be used if one wishes to talk about the object without specifying the possessor (ʔí-dààh, 'lips'). In order to indicate alienable possession of these nouns, an additional possessor prefix can be attached before the indefinite prefix, yielding forms like bí-ʔí-k'àʔ, 'his fat (which comes from the body of something or someone else, but is now in his possession)' contrasting with bí-k'àʔ, 'his fat (which is a part of his own body)'. Some of these nouns may change their meaning when preceded by ʔí-, such as ʔí-bèʔ, 'milk' versus bí-bèʔ, 'her breast'. Lastly, some can only take the indefinite prefix, effectively turning them into regular alienably possessed nouns starting with ʔí- (e.g. ʔí-dààh, 'enemy', but bí-ʔí-dààh, 'his enemy', not *bí-dààh).

The second kind of noun bases are compounds, which are formed from two noun stems and sometimes an enclitic of obscure meaning (e.g. bí-déé-kòò, 'his tears', from déé, combining form of 'eye', and kòò, combining form of 'water'). The third kind of noun bases are nominalized verbs or phrases, which may or may not include some kind of a relative enclitic. Examples include dáł-ts'ààh, 'zebra, tiger', from the identical verb meaning 'marks are on it', and hà-ts'í-ɣą̀ą̀s-é, 'badger', from the verb hà-ts'í-ɣą̀ą̀s, 'he scratches out' plus the relative enclitic -é 'he who'.

Verbs
Like those of most other Athabaskan languages, Plains Apache verbs are highly morphologically complex, exhibiting polypersonal agreement, rich aspect marking, and the characteristic Athabaskan classifier system (a set of four mandatory valence-changing prefixes found throughout the family). Bittle (1963) identifies 14 positions in the verb template, divided into the verbal base (which defines the lexical meaning of the verb) and paradigmatic prefixes (which inflect the verb for person, number, tense, aspect, mood, and voice). The following verb template table is reproduced from Bittle:  3SBJ:3rd person (singular), subject 3OBJ:3rd person (singular), object  However, a verb in Plains Apache never has an affix in each position. A typical verb might be inflected as follows:

ši- a- yi- dí- ∅- ∅- ʔą̀ą̀

1SG.OBJ- PP- 3OBJ- PFV- 3SBJ- CLF- give

'He gives it to me'

In this case, ši- is the indirect object prefix in slot 1, -a- is the postposition in slot 2, -yi- is the direct object prefix in slot 7, -dí- is the modal prefix in slot 11, slots 12 and 13 are occupied by zero morphemes, and ʔą̀ą̀ is the stem in slot 14. All other slots are empty.

The above example displays the zero classifier. Following is an example of a fully inflected verb with the ł- classifier prefix:

ši- go- ∅- ∅- ł- bèèš

1SG.OBJ- NUM- IPFV- 3SBJ- CLF- boil

'They two are boiling me'

Syntax
Like other Southern Athabaskan languages, Plains Apache has strongly head-final tendencies, with a predominant word order of subject-object-verb and postpositions rather than prepositions. This is illustrated in the following example sentences:

dèènáá kóó ʔí- ł- bééš

man water INDEF- CLF- boil

'The man boils water'

séé mi- džǫ́ʔ- dą́ʔ dà- yi- ɣí- ø- ø- nííł

dirt 3SG- back- PP ADV- 3OBJ- PROG- 3SBJ- CLF- throw

'He threw dirt on his back'

However, due to the morphological complexity of Plains Apache verb inflection, it is often possible for a sentence to consist of a single verb, e.g.

da- di- ∅- į̀į̀d- ∅- mą̀ą̀s

NUM- THM- IPFV- 1DUPL.SBJ- CLF- {go to war}

'Each one of us is starting off to war'

Noun phrases always contain only a noun, as Plains Apache has no determiners or adjectives; the equivalent of adjectival modification is achieved by the use of compound and nominalized nouns discussed above.

Amhara Region

The Amhara Region (አማራ ክልል), officially the Amhara National Regional State (የአማራ ብሔራዊ ክልላዊ መንግሥት), is a regional state in northern Ethiopia and the homeland of the Amhara, Awi, Xamir, Argoba, and Qemant people. Its capital is Bahir Dar which is the seat of the Regional Government of Amhara. Amhara is the site of the largest inland body of water in Ethiopia, Lake Tana (which is the source of the Blue Nile), and Semien Mountains National Park (which includes Ras Dashan, the highest point in Ethiopia). Amhara is bordered by Sudan to the west and northwest and by other the regions of Ethiopia: Tigray to the north, Afar to the east, Benishangul-Gumuz to the west and southwest, and Oromia to the south. Towns and cities in Amhara include: Bahir Dar, Dessie, Gonder, Debre Birhan, Debre Tabor, Kombolcha, Weldiya, Debre Markos, Seqota, Kobo, and Metema.

History
During the Ethiopian Empire, Amhara included several provinces (such as Dembiya, Gojjam, Begemder, Angot, Wollo, Shewa and Lasta), most of which were ruled by native Ras or Negus. The current Amhara region corresponds to often large parts of the former provinces of Begemder, Dembiya, Angot, Bete Amhara (Wollo), Gojjam and Shewa. With the rise of the Solomonic Dynasty in 1270 under Emperor Yekuno Amlak (born in the Maqdalla region) and until the establishment of Gondar as the new imperial capital around 1600, the Debre-Birhan to Mekane-Selassie region was the primary seat of the roving Wolloye-Shewan emperors. This period is most significant in the formation of the medieval Ethiopian state, the spread and consolidation of Ethiopian Orthodox Christianity (following the example set by the Zagwe kings in preserving the Axumite heritage) and propagating to the core provinces (besides Tigray/Eritrea, and Lasta) of Bete Amhara, Gojjam, Begemder, northern Shewa, Gafat, and Damot

The region's recorded history, in fact, goes back to the early 13th century. For example, St. George's Church in the town of Woreilu (whose Tabot is reputed to have been carried by Emperor Menelik at the Battle of Adwa) was established around 1200.

The parish of Mekane Selassie (መካነ ሥላሴ), near Neded and the home of the cathedral by the same name, served as a favourite royal playground. The construction of Mekane Selassie (meaning: the abode of the Trinity) was begun by Emperor Naod (1494-1508) and completed by his son Emperor Lebna Dengel. This was a year before the church (along with a large number of monasteries in the region) was sacked and burned down in 1531 by the invasion led by Ahmad bin Ibrahim. Francisco Alvarez, who had earlier visited the church, confirms that its size was some 150 feet by 150 feet — wholly covered in gold leaf, inlaid with gems, pearls and corals

21st century
After the social movements of 2014–2017, Amhara nationalism developed strongly in the region, with a discourse that includes both issues of power balance between elites and territorial claims. Several local politicians, such as Dejene Maru backed by General Asaminew Tsige, were able to control armed factions.

On 22 June 2019, factions of the security forces of the region attempted a coup d'état against the regional government, during which the President of the Amhara region, Ambachew Mekonnen, was assassinated. A bodyguard siding with the nationalist factions assassinated General Se'are Mekonnen – the Chief of the General Staff of the Ethiopian National Defense Force – as well as his aide, Major General Gizae Aberra. The Prime Minister's Office accused Brigadier General Asaminew Tsige, head of the Amhara region security forces, of leading the plot, and Tsige was shot dead by police near Bahir Dar on 24 June.

Water flow
The Amhara region is home to 6 lakes: Lake Tana, Lake Hayq, Lake Hardibo, Lake Ashenge, Lake zengena and Lake Tirba.

According to the Ethiopian government website, the Amhara Highlands receive 80% of Ethiopia’s total annual rainfall of and are the country's most fertile and climatically hospitable region. Lake Tana, in the Amhara Region, is the source of the Blue Nile—at Bahir Dar. When the Blue Nile's flow is at maximum volume (during the rainy season from June to September), it supplies about two-thirds of the water of the Nile proper. Until the 1970 completion of the Aswan High Dam in Egypt, the Blue Nile, together with the Atbara River to its north (which also flows out of the Ethiopian Highlands), caused annual Nile floods that contributed to the fertility of the Nile Valley, enabling the rise of ancient Egyptian civilization, which in turn enabled the development of Egyptian mythology.

Lake Tana
Lake Tana contains several islands, whose numbers vary depending on the water level in the lake. (Over the last 400 years, that level has fallen about 2 m.) In the early 17th century, according to a contemporaneous report by Manoel de Almeida, a Portuguese missionary, there were 21 islands, which he described as "formerly large, but now much diminished,” and seven or eight of them had monasteries on them. In the late 18th century, James Bruce visited the area and noted that, though the locals reported that there were 45 inhabited islands, he believed that "the number may be about eleven." A mid-twentieth-century account reported 37 islands and said that 19 of were the current or former sites of either monasteries or churches.

The lake islands were the home of ancient Ethiopian emperors. Treasures of the Ethiopian Church are kept in the isolated island monasteries (including Kebran Gabriel, Ura Kidane Mehret, Narga Selassie, Daga Estifanos, Medhane Alem of Rema, Kota Maryam and Mertola Maryam). The body of Yekuno Amlak is interred in the monastery of St. Stephen on Daga Island; other Emperors whose tombs are on Daga include Dawit I, Zara Yaqob, Za Dengel and Fasilides. Other important islands in Lake Tana include Dek, Mitraha, Gelila Zakarias, Halimun, and Briguida.

In the late 20th century, the scholar Paul B. Henze reported being shown a rock on the island of Tana Qirqos and being told it was where the Virgin Mary had rested during her journey back from Egypt. He was also told that Saint Frumentius, the bishop known for introducing Christianity to Ethiopia, was "allegedly buried on Tana Cherqos."

Landmarks

The Amhara region has the most world heritage sites of any region in Ethiopia and is endowed with natural and geographic wonders and ecosystems. The region contains Ethiopia's largest inland body of water Lake Tana, which is the source of the Blue Nile river. In 2015 Lake Tana was recognized as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve for its enormous biodiversity, and national and international importance. The Semien Mountains National Park has been designated as one of the first natural World Heritage Site by UNESCO in the world, and the very first in Africa in the natural criteria since 1978. Chosen for its spectacular landscapes and global significance for biodiversity conservation. Situated within the Semien Mountains, Ethiopia's highest peaks Ras Dashen reaches an elevation of (4,543 m). The park also has Ethiopia's second and third highest mountains, Kidis Yared (4,453 m) and Mount Bwahit (4,437 m). The park is home to endangered species found nowhere else in the world, examples of endemic fauna include the iconic walia ibex, the gelada baboon, and the Ethiopian wolf (or Simien fox) among others. The wide range of altitudes has given the country a variety of ecologically distinct areas, leading to the evolution of endemic species in ecological isolation. Amhara region also leads in cultural world heritage sites in Ethiopia, with the Rock Hewn Churches of Lalibela jointly added with Senegal's Gorée island as Africa's first World Heritage site by Unesco in the cultural criteria in 1978. Lalibela and its medieval monolithic churches attracts by far the most number of pilgrims annually of any religious site in Ethiopia. The New Jerusalem was built in response to the capture of old Jerusalem by Muslim forces during the Siege of Jerusalem (1187), after which Muslims denied Ethiopian Christians pilgrimages to the Holy land. Unesco also added Fasil Ghebbi in 1979 as a cultural World Heritage Site. The Royal Enclosure of Fasil Ghebbi was the seat of the Ethiopian Emperors in Gondar the royal capital for more than two centuries(1636 to 1864 AD). The Fasil Ghebbi consist of some twenty palaces, royal buildings, the royal library, a chancellery, a banqueting hall, stables for the horses, highly decorated churches, monasteries and unique public and private buildings that was built during the reign of several emperors in the Gondarine period. The complex covers an area of 70 square kilometers.

Demographics
Based on the 2007 census conducted by the Central Statistical Agency of Ethiopia (CSA), the Amhara region has a population of 17,221,976. 8,641,580 were men and 8,580,396 women; urban inhabitants number 2,112,595 or 12.27% of the population. With an estimated area of 154,708.96 km2, this region has an estimated density of 108.2 people per square kilometer. For the entire region, 3, 983,768 households were counted, which results in an average for the region of 4.3 persons to a household, with urban households having on average 3.3 and rural households 4.5 people. The projected population as of 2022 was 32,134,988. In the previous census, conducted in 1994, the region's population was reported to be 13,834,297 of whom 6,947,546 were men and 6,886,751 women; urban inhabitants numbered 1,265,315 or 9.15% of the population.

According to the CSA,, 28% of the total population had access to safe drinking water, including 19.89% of rural inhabitants and 91.8% of urban inhabitants. Values for other reported common indicators of the standard of living for Amhara include the following: 17.5% of the inhabitants fall into the lowest wealth quintile; adult literacy for men is 54% and for women 25.1%; and the regional infant mortality rate is 94 infant deaths per 1,000 live births, which is greater than the nationwide average of 77; at least half of these deaths occurred in the infants’ first month of life.

Ethnic groups
At 91.47% of the local population, the region is predominantly inhabited by people from the Semitic-speaking Amhara ethnic group. Most other residents hail from other Afro-Asiatic language communities, including the Agaw/Awi, Oromo, Beta Israel, Qemant, Agaw/Kamyr and Argobba. Gumuz is another community located in parts in Amhara Region, speaking a Nilo-Saharan language.

Religion
The predominant religion of the Amhara for centuries has been Christianity, with the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church playing a central role in the culture of the country. According to the 2007 census, 82.5% of the population of the Amhara region (which is 91.2% Amhara) were Ethiopian Orthodox; 17.2% were Muslim, and 0.2% were Protestant ("P'ent'ay"). The Ethiopian Orthodox Church maintains close links with the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria. Easter and Epiphany are the most important celebrations, marked with services, feasting and dancing. There are also many fast days throughout the year, when only vegetables or fish may be eaten. Marriages are often arranged, with men marrying in their late teens or early twenties. Traditionally, girls were married as young as 14, but in the 20th century, the minimum age was raised to 18. After a church wedding, divorce is frowned upon. Each family hosts a separate wedding feast after the wedding.

Traditionally, upon childbirth, a priest will visit the family to bless the infant. The mother and child remain in the house for 40 days after birth for physical and emotional strength. The infant will be taken to the church for baptism at 40 days (for boys) or 80 days (for girls).

Manufacturing
There are several industrial parks that are in operation or under construction. The Kombolcha IP was built at a cost of $90 million and employs 20,000 people. Arerti IP and Debre Birhan IP are under construction.

Agriculture

About 90% of the Amhara are rural and make their living through farming, mostly in the Ethiopian highlands. Barley, corn, millet, wheat, sorghum, and teff, along with beans, peppers, chickpeas, and other vegetables, are the most important crops. In the highlands one crop per year is normal, while in the lowlands two are possible. Cattle, sheep, and goats are also raised. The CSA of Ethiopia estimated in 2005 that farmers in Amhara had a total of 9,694,800 head of cattle (representing 25% of Ethiopia's total cattle), 6,390,800 sheep (36.7%), 4,101,770 goats (31.6%), 257,320 horses (17%), 8,900 mules (6%), 1,400,030 asses (55.9%), 14,270 camels (3.12%), 8,442,240 poultry of all species (27.3%), and 919,450 beehives (21.1%).

Public universities
There are ten public universities in Amhara Region
 * Bahir Dar University, in Bahir Dar, established in 2001
 * Debre Berhan University, in Debre Berhan, established in 2007
 * Debre Markos University, in Debre Markos, established in 2007

 * Injibara University, in Injibara, established in 2015
 * Wollo University, in Dessie and Kombolcha, established in 2007
 * University of Gondar, in Gondar, established in 2003
 * Debre Tabor University, in Debre Tabor, established in 2008
 * Woldia University, in Woldia, established in 2011
 * Mekdela Amba University, in South Wollo, established in 2015
 * Debark University, established in 2020
 * Injibara University, Injibara, Established in 2020

Government
The government of Amhara is composed of the executive branch, led by the President; the legislative branch, which comprises the State Council; and the judicial branch, which is led by the state Supreme Court.

Executive branch
The executive branch is headed by the Chief Administrator of Amhara Region. The current Chief Administrator is Yilikal Kefale, a Prosperity Party member who was elected on 30 September 2021. The current vice president is Alemnew Mekonnen. The other offices in the executive branch cabinet are the Regional Health Bureau (Dr. Abebaw Gebeyehu), Educational Bureau (Yilikal Kefyalew), and 20 other officials.

Judicial branch
There are three levels of the Amhara state judiciary. The lowest level is the court of common pleas: each woreda maintains its own constitutionally mandated court of common pleas, which maintain jurisdiction over all justiciable matters. The intermediate-level court system is the district court system. Four courts of appeals exist, each retaining jurisdiction over appeals from common pleas, municipal, and county courts in an administrative zone. A case heard in this system is decided by a three-judge panel, and each judge is elected.

The highest-ranking court, the Amhara Supreme Court, is Amhara's "court of last resort". A seven-justice panel composes the court, which, by its own discretion, hears appeals from the courts of appeals, and retains original jurisdiction over limited matters. The chief judge is called the President of Amhara Supreme Court (Yeneneh Simegn).

Legislative branch
The State Council, which is the highest administrative body of the state, is made up of 294 members.

National politics
Amhara is represented by 138 representatives in the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia House of Peoples' Representatives.

Administrative zones
Like other regions in Ethiopia, Amhara is subdivided into administrative zones. There are 11 zones and 67 woredas.

When I was growing up (Pacific NW USA) in the 1950s & early 1960s, the "word on the street" was that the brewers had gone to the "stubby" bottle as a way of cutting down on the physical injuries caused by the use of the longneck bottle as a weapon in bar fights.

Needs a History section
This article lacks any information about the history of the beer bottle: when and where it was first used, how its use spread, etc. There's apparently infinite detail about every obscure type of bottle used everywhere on earth in the 20th century, but the past is a total blank. Did the beer bottle not exist until the 20th century? This article gives no clue.

The reams of minute detail about regional variations, collectability, etc, make this read much more like a site for aficionados only than like an encyclopedia article.
