Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Selassie’s greatest impact may have been on the island of Jamaica. Jamaican religious leaders adopted a version of his birth name, Tafari (Ras was an official title) and Rastafarians regard Selassie as a god. (Selassie himself remained a Christian throughout his life.)
Detailed explanation-2: -Today, Haile Selassie is worshipped as God incarnate among followers of the Rastafari movement (taken from Haile Selassie’s pre-imperial name Ras-meaning Head, a title equivalent to Duke-Tafari Makonnen), which emerged in Jamaica during the 1930s under the influence of Marcus Garvey’s “Pan Africanism” movement.
