CROWN COUNCIL OF ETHIOPIA

'The Crown Council of Ethiopia' was the Constitutional body which advised the reigning Emperors of Ethiopia, acts on behalf of the Crown and the council’s members are appointed by the Emperor.
The Ethiopian monarchy has been abolished, but Ethiopian royalists continue to operate the Crown Council. On March 16, 2005, Prince Ermias Sahle Selassie was reconfirmed by Crown Prince Zera Yacob Amha Selassie as President of the Crown Council of Ethiopia. Zera Yacob Amha Selassie is considered Emperor in Exile of Ethiopia.
The Ethiopian constitution of 1995 confirmed the abolition of the Emperorship. However, in 1993 a group called the "Crown Council of Ethiopia", which includes several descendants of Haile Selassie, claimed that the nəgusä nägäst was still in existence, and was the legal head of Ethiopia."
