Timeline
Le'ul Ras (Prince) Dr Asfa-Wossen Asserate (Amharic: አስፋ ወሰን ዓሥራተ; born 31 October 1948, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia) is an Ethiopian-German political analyst and consultant for African and Middle-Eastern Affairs and best-selling author.
A member of the Ethiopian royalty, he is the great-nephew of The Last Emperor of Ethiopia Haile Selassie I, great-grandson of the Empress Menen and son of the last President of the Imperial Crown Council, Le'ul Ras (Duke) Asserate Kassa and his wife Leult (Princess) Zuriash Worq Gabre-Iqziabher.
Le'ul (Prince) Asfa-Wossen Asserate was born in 1948 in Addis Ababa, where he attended the German school and received his "Abitur".
He went on to study law, economics and history at the University of Tübingen and at Magdalene College, Cambridge.
In 1974, the Derg takeover in Ethiopia made it impossible for him to return to the land of his ancestors: His father and 60 other dignitaries of the Imperial Government were executed without a trial and all the members of the Imperial Family were held in kith and kin detention for more than a decade by the Derg.
While in West Germany Asfa-Wossen Asserate founded the human rights group for Ethiopia called the Council for Civil Liberties in Ethiopia (CCLE) and campaigned for the release of all political prisoners and his detained family until the demise of the Mengistu dictatorship.
In 1978, he was awarded a Ph.D. with honours in Ethiopian history at the University of Frankfurt am Main.
After leaving university Asserate worked as the Press Officer for the Frankfurter Messegesellschaft (1978–1980), and as the Director of the Press and Information Department of the Düsseldorf Trade Fair and as a freelance journalist (1980–1983).
In 1981 he became a German citizen.
Since 1983 he has been working as a Consultant for African and Middle Eastern Affairs, advising middle-sized German companies in respect to their export promotion to these countries.
As a political analyst he has written a considerable number of articles and essays in German daily newspapers and learned publications.
In 1994 he founded Orbis Aethiopicus, the Society for the Preservation and Promotion of Ethiopian Culture, which holds scientific congresses with a focus on Ethiopian culture, history and archeology and places great endeavour to pass on Ethiopia's ancient cultural heritage to the new generation.
His published books include the etiquette bestseller Manieren ("Manners", 2003), a 2015 biography entitled King of Kings: The Triumph and Tragedy of Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, and most recently African Exodus: Migration and the Future of Europe (2018).
