The Ogaden was joined to Italian Somaliland and made the new governorate of "Somali", based in Mogadishu in the east. The southern kingdoms, provinces, and principalities became the governorate of "Galla-Sidamo" and was ruled from Jimma. In the north, Tigrai and Eritrea were merged into the governorate of "Eritrea", based in Asmara. Gojjam, Beghemidir, Simien, Wello, and parts of northern Shewa were merged into the governorate of "Amhara", headquartered in Gondar. The region surrounding Addis Ababa was first named after the capital, but it was later re-named the governorate of "Shewa" and ruled directly by the Vice-Roy. Harrar, Dire Dawa, and their environs became the "Harrar" governorate.
