Balabat (Amharic: ባላባት, romanized: balabat or balebat, lit: 'with father'[1] compare with English Patrician) was a largely traditional Ethiopian social class of wealthy land owners who lived on rent collected from their tenant framers (gebbars).[2] Balabats were below the Mesafint (hereditary nobility "princes") and equal to the Mekwanint (appointed nobility "officers") in the class hierarchy.[3] They were closely related to, commonly married to, and had the same economic base on land as the Mesafints and Mekwanints.[4] Balabats officially ceased to exist when feudalism was abolished in 1975.[5]
^Balabat is a compound Amharic word (bale-abat, ባለ-አባት) which means 'with' and 'father'
