Haile Selassie ssassinated this day in 1975 Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie I, believed to have been assassinated this day in 1975, sought to modernize his country, steering it into the mainstream after World War II. Under his rule (1930–74), Ethiopia entered the League of Nations and the United Nations. Haile Selassie was regarded as the Messiah of the African race by the Rastafarian movement. "Apart from the Kingdom of the Lord there is not on this earth any nation that is superior to any other. Should it happen that a strong Government finds it may with impunity destroy a weak people, then the hour strikes for that weak people to appeal to the League of Nations to give its judgment in all freedom. God and history will remember your judgment." Haile Selassie, appealing to the League of Nations after being forced into exile after Italy invaded Ethiopia, June 30, 1935
