The aim of the article is to present the importance of building dams and water reservoirs in the politics of the last Emperor of Ethiopia, Haile Sillasie I. The article concentrates on the propaganda aspect of this activity. The article presents the problem in a broader historical context, also referring to the periods after the fall of the Empire, thus trying to prove the continuity of the importance of the problem of water in Ethiopian politics. The main source used is ‟Ethiopian Observer”, published during Haile Sillasie’s reign, which promoted a positive image of the changes taking place in Ethiopia during this period.

The article attempts to present the reasons, course and effects of hydrotechnical works on the left basin of the Oder river. Research made to date in this field has been limited mainly to the Oder river itself, with no consideration for its tributaries that have a profound influence on the shaping of hydrological regime of the river. On the basis of archive materials and source literature, we analyse conditions of realization of the regulation programme, reconstruct the network of hydrotechnical facilities that were built, and indicate environmental and economic repercussions of reshaping the tributaries of the left basin of the Oder river.
