  Galla-Sidamo Governorate was one of the six governorates of Italian East Africa. It was formed in 1936 from parts of the conquered Ethiopian Empire following the Second Italo-Ethiopian War with the capital was Jimma. In November 1938 some territory of Galla-Sidamo in the Scioa region was given to the neighboring Addis Abeba Governorate, enlarging it to the Scioa Governorate.
  
  The area bordering the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan was the stronghold of the Ethiopian resistance against the Italians until 1939, when it was practically pacified.

  | Baco, del Oeste, Borana, Caffa & Ghimirra, | Gimma, Guraghé & Cambattà Magi & Sciuro, | Ometo, Sidamo, Uollega & Gundrù. |
