"In post #12 I point out your standard of political continuity that you apply to Ethiopia and not to Western Civilization. "
I applied no standard to Ethiopia. I pointed out that YOUR attempt to discredit the history of the West by bringing in a false impression of the continuity of nationhood of a non-Western state was absurd, but typical.
"In post #13, you say that I am trying to "destroy said civilization with [my] jihadist buddies" which is not only patently false, it is also a personal attack."
It's based on our few previous encounters on this subject on this forum. It's true even if you don't realize that you are being used towards that end.

There was nothing false about what I said. Understanding Ethiopia does not "discredit" Europe. History is not a zero-sum game.

Well, if it's true, you must have some facts to back up such a wild accusation. I'll ask you again to put up or shut up, before you slink away from a burden of proof you can't shoulder.
