The two major internal opposition forces to Tewodros were the Oromo people and the Ethiopian nobility. The Oromo people were a large ethnic group in Ethiopia who had been oppressed by the Amhara people, of which Tewodros was a member. The Ethiopian nobility were a powerful group of landowners and aristocrats who had traditionally held power in the country and were opposed to Tewodros' attempts to centralize power and modernize the country.
