Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Despite the rapid spread of Islam on the continent of Africa, Ethiopia remained Christian.
Key Takeaway: With the emergence of Islam in the seventh century, Christians in Ethiopia became increasingly isolated from the rest of the Christian world. The head of the Ethiopian church was appointed by the patriarch of the Coptic Church in Egypt and Ethiopian monks had certain rights in the church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. Although much of the population of Africa became Muslim as Islam spread, Ethiopia remained Christian, as did the Egyptian Copts.
