The image does not show the British Royals bowing to Haile Selassie I, but an ambassador and his wife presenting themselves at Selassie's palace in 1955. Empress Menen Asfaw pictured died in 1962. The British Royal family did not visit Ethiopia until 1965. https://hoaxeye.com/2019/03/31/haile-selassie-and-queen-elizabeth-ii/ https://factcheck.afp.com/british-monarchs-first-visit-ethiopia-came-10-years-after-photo-was-taken https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-queen-elizabeth-not-bowing-ethiopia-179342106838 https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-selassie-elizabethii-idUSL1N2LM26S https://checkyourfact.com/2021/03/03/fact-check-queen-elizabeth-bowing-ethiopian-emperor-haile-selassie/ https://www.liberation.fr/checknews/2018/03/15/la-reine-elizabeth-ii-s-est-elle-agenouillee-devant-l-empereur-ethiopien-haile-selassie-ier_1653281/ https://youtu.be/w4Qnm4g0_o0
