Building the Ethiopia knowledge base: a public engineering record (ethiopia-build.stoagen.com) # ethiopia-build Source for **ethiopia-build.stoagen.com**: the public, ongoing engineering record of a project begun 14 July 2026 by a two-person team (one giving the agents their orders, and a native Amharic speaker who is also a data scientist) working with a team of AI agents, that began the process of building a machine-readable knowledge base about Ethiopia from public sources and extracting knowledge graphs from it, toward a bilingual news site for Ethiopia and its diaspora and better Amharic translation. Where the data came from, how the graphs were built, what went wrong and what is being done next, with fifteen Amharic and low-resource-language problems as the centrepiece. The work continues and the site is updated as it does. Published with the Stoagen pattern: every page is written once in Markdown and published twice, as a readable page and a machine mirror that cannot drift from it. The front door for assistants is `site_guide.txt`, a small map of every page. ## Build ``` python site-src/build_site.py python site-src/validate_site.py ``` Output lands in `public/` (gitignored). CI runs both on every pull request; only `main` deploys to GitHub Pages. ## Rules People appear by role only. No images. Ethiopic renders from system fonts and every Amharic string is awaiting native-speaker review. Every figure carries a repository path, ticket id or commit. See `site-src/CLAUDE.md`.
