# Ethiopia Cities Reassignment to New States
2+
3+
## Issue Reference
4+
- **Issue**: #1152 - Ethiopia state missing (Follow-up: City reassignment)
5+
- **Previous Fix**: Added Sidama (SI) and Southwest Ethiopia Peoples (SW) states
6+
- **Date**: 2025-10-14
7+
8+
## Executive Summary
9+
Reassigned 12 cities from Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region (SN) to the newly created Sidama (SI) and Southwest Ethiopia Peoples (SW) regions, completing the administrative restructuring of Ethiopia that began in 2020-2021.
10+
11+
## Background
12+
In the previous fix (documented in `FIX_ETHIOPIA_MISSING_STATES.md`), we added two new regional states to Ethiopia:
13+
1. **Sidama** (ET-SI) - Formed in 2020
14+
2. **Southwest Ethiopia Peoples** (ET-SW) - Formed in 2021
15+
16+
Both were separated from the Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region (SNNPR). This PR completes that work by reassigning the appropriate cities to their correct states.
17+
18+
## Changes Made
19+

81+
## Validation
82+
83+
### City Count Verification
84+
```bash
85+
# Total cities (should remain 144)
86+
jq 'length' contributions/cities/ET.json
87+
# Output: 144 ✅
88+
89+
# Sidama cities
90+
jq '[.[] | select(.state_code == "SI")] | length' contributions/cities/ET.json
91+
# Output: 7 ✅
92+
93+
# Southwest cities
94+
jq '[.[] | select(.state_code == "SW")] | length' contributions/cities/ET.json
95+
# Output: 5 ✅
96+
97+
# Southern Nations cities (reduced)
98+
jq '[.[] | select(.state_code == "SN")] | length' contributions/cities/ET.json
99+
# Output: 21 ✅
100+
```
101+
102+
### State ID Verification
103+
```bash
104+
# Verify Sidama cities have correct state_id
105+
jq '[.[] | select(.state_code == "SI")] | .[0].state_id' contributions/cities/ET.json
106+
# Output: 5465 ✅
107+
108+
# Verify Southwest cities have correct state_id
109+
jq '[.[] | select(.state_code == "SW")] | .[0].state_id' contributions/cities/ET.json
110+
# Output: 5466 ✅
111+
```
112+
113+
### JSON Validation
114+
```bash
115+
python3 -m json.tool contributions/cities/ET.json > /dev/null
116+
# Output: (no errors) ✅
117+
```
118+
119+
## Implementation Details
120+
121+
### Approach
122+
Used a Python script to update the cities programmatically:
123+
1. Identified 12 cities based on geographic coordinates and historical references
124+
2. Updated `state_id` field to correct values (5465 for SI, 5466 for SW)
125+
3. Updated `state_code` field to correct values ('SI' or 'SW')
126+
4. Maintained all other fields unchanged (timestamps, translations, etc.)
127+
128+
### Files Modified
129+
- `contributions/cities/ET.json` (12 city records updated)
130+
131+
### Selection Criteria
132+
Cities were selected based on:
133+
1. Geographic coordinates matching the regions
134+
2. Historical administrative assignments
135+
3. Wikipedia and ISO 3166-2:ET sources
136+
4. Capital cities of each new region
137+
138+
### Data Sources
139+
- Previous fix documentation: `.github/fixes-docs/FIX_ETHIOPIA_MISSING_STATES.md`
140+

142+
- ISO 3166-2:ET: https://www.iso.org/obp/ui#iso:code:3166:ET

221+
- Up-to-date with 2020-2021 regional changes
222+
223+
## Future Work
224+
1.**COMPLETED**: Add missing Sidama and Southwest states
225+
2.**COMPLETED**: Reassign cities to new states
226+
3. 🔄 **Optional**: Add more cities to SI and SW regions if available
227+
4. 🔄 **Optional**: Verify remaining SN cities are correctly assigned
228+
229+
