Dawaro or Doaro (Amharic: ደዋሮ) was a Muslim principality which laid near Hadiya.[1][2][3] The state was originally independent until becoming a vassal and later a province due its subjugation by Emperor Amda Seyon I in the early 14th century. The region was situated east of Hadiya and north of Bali which covered much of Ethiopia's Arsi Province.[4][5][6][7] The capital of Dawaro was called Sabboch[8]
