The Ethiopian Empire in exile was a government-in-exile formed when Emperor Haile Selassie fled the country after Italy invaded Ethiopia in 1935. Haile Selassie, recognized by Allied world powers as the de jure and legitimate ruler of Ethiopia, went to Jerusalem via Djibouti by boarding a British ship in 1936.

He then went to a villa Fairfield House in Bath, England accompanied by his children, grandchildren, and servants, and spent the remainder of the time until the liberation of Ethiopia during the East African Campaign in 1941, where he returned to the throne after leaving for five years. Haile Selassie also went to Geneva to address the League of Nations about Ethiopian sovereignty and denounced Italy's actions toward his army on 30 June 1936.
