What was the kingdom that Mansfield Parkyns traveled around and is also known as Abyssinia?
Ethiopian Empire The Ethiopian Empire (Amharic: ), also known as Abyssinia (derived from the Arabic "al-Habash"), was a kingdom that spanned a geographical area in the current state of Ethiopia. It existed from approximately 1137 (beginning of Zagwe dynasty) until 1974, when the Solomonic dynasty was overthrown in a coup d'état.
List of royal visits to Worthing Worthing, a seaside town on the West Sussex coast in southeast England, has received many royal visits since Princess Amelia spent five months recovering from an injured knee in 1798. The patronage of the 15-year-old daughter of King George III helped Worthing develop from a modest village into a high-class resort favoured by wealthy people seeking a quieter alternative to nearby Brighton's fashionable vulgarity. Other members of the British Royal Family were regular visitors during the first half of the 19th century, when Worthing's prestige was at its highest. The United Kingdom's current monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, first visited in 1951 when she was still Princess Elizabeth, and regular visits have been made by other members of the British Royal Family since then. Foreign royal visitors include Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, who spent several weeks in a seafront hotel as a refugee during his exile.
