Thomas Bulkeley, 7th Viscount Bulkeley
Thomas James Bulkeley, 7th Viscount Bulkeley, later Warren- Bulkeley,( 12 December 1752 – 3 June 1822) was an English aristocrat and politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1774 to 1784 when he was raised to the peerage.
Yimam of Yejju
Yimam of Yejju( also transliterated Imam; died 1828) was a" Ras" of Begemder and" Enderase"( regent) of the Emperor of Ethiopia.
He was the son of Gugsa of Yejju.
Upon succeeding his father Gugsa as" Ras" when Gugsa died in 1825, Yimam was challenged by his brother Marye, who staged an open revolt.
According to Trimingham, Ras Yimam openly supported Islam against the local Ethiopian Church.
He also grew so annoyed at Abuna Qerellos III's intervention in the doctrinal dispute over the nature of Christ in support of the" Sost Lidet", that he banished the Abuna to the monastery in Lake Hayq, where Abuna Qerellos remained until his death( circa 1828).
While Ras Yimam was away in Gojjam campaigning against" Dejazmach" Goshu Zewde, Dejazmach Haile Maryam marched from Semien to Gondar where replaced Emperor Gigar with his own choice, Baeda Maryam.
When Yimam heard of this, he returned by way of Dengel Ber, pursuing" Dejazmach" Haile Maryam as far as Waldebba where they fought for three days until 25 December 1825, when Haile fled the battlefield for Semien by way of Wegera where he later died, allowing" Ras" Yimam to restore Gigar to the throne.
Typically for the Zemene Mesafint, relationships between these major lords quickly changed.
As Sven Rubenson describes," Dejazmach" Haile Maryam's son Wube was captured in the battle, but Yimam's ally" Dejazmach" Meru of Dembiya convinced Yimam to free the boy.
Not long after, Yimam joined forces with Wube, who had succeeded his father as" Dejazmach", against Goshu and Meru in the Battle of Kossober October 1827, defeating their opponents.
Goshu fled to sanctuary in Gojjam, while Meru was soon killed after the battle by a soldier.
The following year, Ras Yimam" died by violence" in Debre Tabor.
He was buried at the church of Iyasus in that town.
Gugsa of Yejju
Gugsa of Yejju( died 23 May 1825) was a" Ras" of Begemder(" circa" 1798 until his death), and Inderase( regent) of the Emperor of Ethiopia.
According to Nathaniel Pearce, he took the Christian name of Wolde Mikael.
He was the son of Mersu Barentu and Kefey, the sister of" Ras" Aligaz.
Both Bahru Zewde and Paul B. Henze consider his reign as Ras and Enderase as the peak of the Yejju Dynasty during the Zemene Mesafint.
He married one daughter to" Dejazmach" Meru of Dembiya, and his other daughter Hirut to Dejazmach Haile Maryam.
When Gugsa became Ras of Begemder, as mentioned in the contemporary Royal Chronicle and later in Gabra Sellase's chronicle of Menelik's reign, he made his capital at a place called Lebo, a mountainous district some 60 kilometers south- east of Gondar.
Upon becoming Regent, Ras Gugsa reasserted the central power of the Empire( although keeping the Emperor as a figurehead) by dispossessing the nobility of the parts of Ethiopia he controlled, primarily Begemder.
He accomplished this by proclaiming in 1800 in the name of the Emperor the legal title of land tenure would be converted from freeholds to state property, held at the will of the Emperor.
At first the peasantry welcomed this egalitarian measure, believing that they would benefit from the loss of their masters.
However, as Ras Gugsa proceeded in dispossessing the great families each year under one pretext or another, the peasants lost their last defenders.
" The dispossessed nobles," writes Pankhurst," meanwhile, almost all became soldiers of fortune.
They were so rapacious that sometimes whole villages abandoned their lands and emigrated to neighboring territories, many of the peasantry enrolling in the army, as they preferred the perils and independence of a military life to the servitude of the field."
In 1803, Ras Gugsa entered into the ongoing doctrinal disputes that divided the Ethiopian Church by joining the Ichege Wolde Yona in expelling the advocates of the" Qebat" from Begemder.
About the same time, the Ras exploited the helplessness of the ecclesiastical structure on the death of Abuna Yosab III by plundering the episcopal properties 12 September of that year.
Ras Gugsa had a non-violent death and was buried at the church of Iyasus in Debre Tabor.
Dori of Yejju
Dori of Yejju( died 1831) was a" Ras" of Begemder and Inderase( regent) of the Emperor of Ethiopia.
He was the brother of his predecessor Marye of Yejju.
After their brother Yimam's death Marye quickly seized the office of" Ras", despite the armed resistance of Dori.
With his brother Dori led the Yejju forces in the Battle of Debre Abbay on 14 February 1831; his brother was killed in the savage battle, and as a result Dori had his followers ravage Tigray.
While he was with his followers pillaging the countryside outside of Axum," Ras" Dori became ill.
According to Samuel Gobat, not trusting his subordinates the" Ras" put half of them in chains, then returned to Debre Tabor where he died towards the end of May.
His only significant act while" Inderase" was to depose Emperor Gigar on 18 June, and replace him with Iyasus IV.
Atse Iyasu
Iyasu or Joshua was proclaimed" nəgusä nägäst"( 1787 – 1788) of Ethiopia in Tigray and Gojjam by enemies of Ras Ali I of Yejju.
He was defeated in battle against Ras Ali.
Ali II of Yejju
Ali II of Yejju( c. 1819 – c. 1866) was a Ras of Begemder and Enderase( Regent) of the Emperor of Ethiopia.
He was the son of Alula of Yejju( sometime governor of Damot and then of Gojjam) and Menen Liben Amede( later Empress of Ethiopia through her marriage to Emperor Yohannes III) and nephew of Gugsa of Yejju.
Alula of Yejju
Alula of Yejju( ca. 1819 –?) was the son of Woizero Kefey( daughter of Abba Seru Gwangul) and brother of Ras Gugsa.
