East African Campaign proclamation and notices of 1941.
A rare series of legal notices published during World War II by the British Military, setting out laws to be observed in Ethiopia after the British and their allies seized control of the region from the Italians who had taken control in 1936. Subjects include the sale of alcohol and drugs, police discipline, infectious diseases, curfews, and even distribution of icecream.
The East African Campaign (also known as the Abyssinian Campaign) was fought in East Africa during the Second World War by the Allied Powers, mainly from the British Empire, against Italy and its colony of Italian East Africa, between June 1940 and November 1941. The British restored Haile Sellasie I, who had been ousted by the Italians, and under his authority established criminal courts and published these notices.
