Abstract
This study aimed to reconstruct the early history of the Hadiya Kingdom. With the rise of the Solomonic Dynasty in 1270, an epoch of military, political, and cultural expedition of the Christian kingdom to the south began. The political geography, an early campaign of the Christian kingdom against the Kingdom of Hadiya, its impact on the kingdom of Hadiya and their reaction, and their alliance with other Muslim states were the focal points of this study. As it is historical research, a qualitative methodology is employed. The study was conducted based on reliable primary and secondary sources. The study revealed that Hadiya was one of the seven Muslim states in Ethiopia and it was one of the strongest among them. However, due to several conflicts against the Christian kingdom in the early thirteenth to the seventeenth centuries, they seem to have reduced their political power and territories and decreased the population.
