Lij Iyasu (1895-1935), later Iyasu V, was Emperor of Ethiopia from 1913 to 1916.
Lij means child, especially one born of royal blood.
Iyasu V (1895-1935) was the son of Mikael de Wollo and Shewaregga Menelik, daughter of Negus Menelik II, who named him his successor.
He assumed power upon the latter's death in December 1913, at the age of 18. His reign was brief, and his inclination towards Islam provoked a wave of opposition throughout the country.
