Haile Selassie I (July 23, 1892 – August 27, 1975) was the Emperor of Ethiopia from 1930 to 1974.

Background[]

Selassie was in power around the estimated point of Divergence in the Fallout world, after World War II, meaning that his rule may have been affected by this change. However, any details of his effect on Ethiopian history are not mentioned.

Notes[]

Selassie is mentioned in the lyrics of the song "In a Shanty in Old Shanty Town," which is broadcast on Appalachia Radio in Fallout 76. The radio was given a DJ, Julie, in Wastelanders, and one of her lines includes a reference to Selassie.[1]

Appearances[]

Haile Selassie is mentioned only in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wastelanders update.

References[]

  1. Julie: "In case you were wondering, Haile Selassie was actually a ruler in Ethiopia back in the day. Don't let anyone tell you listening to the radio is a waste of time - it's educational!"
