The '''Crown Council of Ethiopia''' is a [[community organization]] and [[cultural center]] with the mission of preserving the culture(s) of the former [[Ethiopian Empire]], as well as promoting development and humanitarian efforts. Today, the Crown Council has abandoned its former mission of being a [[Government in exile|Government-in-exile]], redefining its role as a [[Humanitarianism|humanitarian]] and [[Conservation and restoration of cultural property|cultural preservation]] organization representing [[Ethiopians]], [[Eritreans]], and their [[diaspora]]. It is headquartered in the [[Washington metropolitan area|Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area]] in the [[United States]], where a large concentration of [[Ethiopian Americans]] and [[Eritrean Americans]] are located.
It originated as a [[Constitutional Law|constitutional body]] within the [[Ethiopian Empire]], which were appointed by and advised the reigning [[Emperor of Ethiopia]] ([[Ge'ez language|Ge'ez]]: ንጉሠ ነገሥት, ''Nəgusä Nägäst''); on occasion, its members acted on behalf of the Crown. After the deposition of the monarchy, the Crown Council of Ethiopia acted as the [[Government in exile|Government-in-exile]] of the [[Ethiopian Empire]] once claiming to be the legitimate government of [[Ethiopia]] and [[Eritrea]]. On 28 July 2004, the Crown Council abandoned its Government-in-exile status, relinquishing its claim of legitimate governance to the governments of Ethiopia and Eritrea.
