EPRDF (Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front)

The Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF) was a coalition of political parties that governed Ethiopia from 1991 to 2019. Formed after overthrowing a previous government, it aimed to unify various ethnic groups and promote development. The EPRDF emphasized federalism, allowing regions greater administrative autonomy, and implemented economic reforms that spurred growth. However, it was also criticized for suppressing opposition and restricting political freedoms. In 2019, the coalition transitioned into the Prosperity Party, signaling a shift in Ethiopia's political landscape.
