The East African countries are advancing daily as evidenced by the urbanization of major metropolitan areas. Most towns are growing rapidly due to good economies, availability of minerals, and modern technologies. This has led to the development of industries which on other hand generate revenue for national developments.
To begin with, Addis Ababa is the largest and capital city of Ethiopia located in the highlands that border the great Rift Valley. It extends to an area of 527 square kilometers and accommodates a population of about 4.5 million inhabitants. It is an important cultural hub that contains a national museum that houses the rich artifacts of Ethiopian natives.

The city has well-paved roads and expressways which makes transportation easy and also enhances its accessibility. In addition, it’s an important administrative center that contains the headquarters of the African Union. Moreover, it has an electric train that extends to a distance of about 466 miles and links Addis Ababa to the Red Sea port of Djibouti.
