Permissio
(Reusing this file)

This work is in the public domain in Ethiopia because its copyright protection has expired or it is exempted from copyright by virtue of the Proclamation No. 410/2004 on Copyright and Neighboring Rights Protection, enacted 2004 (details). The work meets one of the following criteria:

It is an anonymous, pseudonymous or posthumous work and 50 years have passed since the date of its publication
It is a collective or audiovisual work and 50 years have passed since the date of its publication
It is a photographic work, and 25 years have passed since the date of its creation (or publication, whatever date is the latest)
It is another kind of work, and 50 years have passed since the year of death of the author (or last-surviving author)
It is "any official text of a legislative, administrative or of legal nature, as well as official translations thereof"

Per U.S. Circ. 38a, the following countries are not participants in the Berne Convention or Universal Copyright Convention and there is no presidential proclamation restoring U.S. copyright protection to works of these countries on the basis of reciprocal treatment of the works of U.S. nationals or domiciliaries:

East Timor, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Iran, Iraq, Marshall Islands, Palau, Somalia, Somaliland, and South Sudan.

As such, works published by citizens of these countries in these countries are usually not subject to copyright protection outside of these countries. Hence, such works may be in the public domain in most other countries worldwide.

However:

Works published in these countries by citizens or permanent residents of other countries that are signatories to the Berne Convention or any other treaty on copyright will still be protected in their home country and internationally as well as locally by local copyright law (if it exists).
Similarly, works published outside of these countries within 30 days of publication within these countries will also usually be subject to protection in the foreign country of publication. When works are subject to copyright outside of these countries, the term of such copyright protection may exceed the term of copyright inside them.
Unpublished works from these countries may be fully copyrighted.
A work from one of these countries may become copyrighted in the United States under the URAA if the work's home country enters a copyright treaty or agreement with the United States and the work is still under copyright in its home country.

Ethiopia has enacted a copyright law as published in the Official Gazette (unofficial English (WIPO) translation) which came into force on 19 July 2004.

This work is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it consists entirely of information that is common property and contains no original authorship.

This image shows a flag, a coat of arms, a seal or some other official insignia. The use of such symbols is restricted in many countries. These restrictions are independent of the copyright status.

Historical flags
Before the rectangular flag was created, Ethiopia flew three coloured pennants. The red was then at the top.
Flag of Ethiopia (1897–1914). Menelik II, on 6 October 1897 ordered the rectangular tricolour from top to bottom of red, yellow, and green.
Flag of the Ethiopian Empire (1914–1936).
The flag with the Lion of Judah (1941–1974). It remains popular with the Rastafari movement and people loyal to Haile Selassie.
War Ensign of the Imperial Ethiopian Navy (1955–1974), was based upon the Blue Ensign.
Flag of Ethiopian Empire (1974–1975), modified after Haile Selassie's overthrow by removing the crown from the lion's head and by changing the cross tip to a spear point.
War Ensign of the Imperial Ethiopian Navy (1974–1975).
The official flag under the Derg (1975–1987), essentially the Imperial flag without the lion. It was seen more than the state flag.
The State flag under the Derg (1975–1987). Rarely seen, and a forerunner to the flag introduced in 1987.
The flag of the People's Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (1987–1991) introduced the current ratio of 1:2.
The Civil flag of the Transitional Government of Ethiopia (1991–1996). It is the same as the 1975–1987 official flag, except for the ratio.
The State flag of the Transitional Government of Ethiopia (28 May 1992-6 February 1996).
The flag of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (6 February 1996-2009). Its central disc is brighter than the current one.
