Consideration on migration in Addis Ababa
Addis Ababa is one of the many African capitals which grew up-in a remarkable way during the past twenty years. The 1961 census recorded 449,000 inhabitants (including -to say the truth -many villages located within the municipal area), while previous estimates were of 35,000 in 19.03r 70,000 in 1928, 105,000- in 1938, and 400.000 in 1952. The same, as elsewhere, the capital left all other towns in the country far behind. In 1908, there were four centers of 5,000 inhabitants and upwards, Addis Ababa Harrar (40,000), Gondar and Axum(5,000 each). In 1956 there were 27 (Eritrea not included) but their total population, outside the capital, failed to reach the figure of 350,000-the main centers being Bessie (53,520), the capital of Wollo, Harrar (40,499) and Dire Sawa (30,438).
