Now that you say it, direct rule from Addis Ababa doesn't sound too bad either.With what I'm planning for this timeline, the UNIA's Pan-African state might not be so implausible . . .

African National Socialism seems like it might become a thing ITTL.Not sure if this has already been said or if this belongs here:
“Although some felt Adolf Hitler was bad, he was a great man and real conqueror whose name would never be forgotten.”
~Idi Amin.
Both, especially if Italy invades Ethiopia and Germany gets the chance to portray itself as an anti-colonialist country which supports the exportation of National Socialism into colonial Africa as Idi Amin becomes attracted to it. I feel like a Nazi Uganda under TTL's Idi Amin would be a sort of Afro-Fascist North Korea that has the same relationship with its more wealthy counterparts in the Afro-Fascist camp in much the same vein as China and NK today.You mean like an African equivalent to National Socialism or African support for National Socialism? That would certainly be strange. Would be interesting to see how they would defend it, though.

"Have we not the right, in the face of all these difficulties (under-population), beyond and over our sacred rights, to demand the unification of Liberia and West Africa so that we restore to ourselves the living space which is indispensable and inevitable? Others have found living space for themselves in foreign and remote lands - why should we not have the right to demand not to be strangled in a territory of land which is today too narrow for us, and how shall we manage otherwise as time passes and our number increases? Liberia has the right to aspire to become the Great Ethiopian Kingdom, to be a guardian of the West Mediterranean and Atlantic Ocean, to be the leader of the United States of Africa." -- William Tubman.This belongs here
