Do you mean the First Italo–Ethiopian War (1895–96) or the Second Italo–Ethiopian War (1935–36)? The numbers differ and estimates vary by source. Briefly:
- First Italo–Ethiopian War (Battle of Adwa, 1896): Ethiopian forces under Menelik II are commonly estimated at roughly 80,000–120,000 men — many sources cite about 100,000 at Adwa.
- Second Italo–Ethiopian War (1935–36): estimates vary widely because forces were a mix of regulars and irregular levies. Typical modern estimates put Ethiopian mobilized forces in the range of about 200,000–500,000 (many historians use figures around 250,000–350,000 for the main forces present during the campaign).
If you tell me which war (or which battle) you mean, I can give a more precise estimate and include sources.
