Empress Eléni of Ethiopia was born a noblewoman in Hadiya. In 1445, Eléni became the wife of Emperor Zara Yaqob. Eléni guided the reign of her husband and four other emperors and fearlessly challenged the leading role men played in society as an empress, queen mother, and regent. Empress Eléni was an author, diplomat, and leader who cared deeply about her subjects. Empress Eléni remained active at the Ethiopian court until her eighties. Empress Eléni’s story will inspire girls and women everywhere to rise above difficult circumstances and fulfill their destinies.
