This place isn't Italy. It isn't Cuba, and it's not the Middle East either. This is Eritrea, and there's nowhere else like it on earth. Due to a history of colonization by Italy and near-constant war with it's neighbor Ethiopia, this country has a very distinctive look--and it feels like it hasn't changed in 50 years.
After visiting the capital city of Asmara, it was time to tour the entire country. We would visit lands that very few foreigners have seen--at least in the last 30 years. Ruins and remains from the Ottomans, Egyptians, Italians and Ethiopians lay waiting to be explored, as if they were destroyed just yesterday. This was one of the most interesting trips I had ever taken.

Tommy, thanks for showcasing what is one of my favourite countries in the world, after a lifetime of travels. I visited Eritrea a dozen or so times between 1997 and 2002, but due to the nature of my work, I will probably sadly not be able to go back in the near future. We ran a student empowerment project at the university of Asmara, and unfortunately most of the participants are now based in the US or in Europe, and last time I tried, I was denied a visa. I would love to visit again, I can feel the scorching heat of Massawa, the history of Keren and all the odd places in Asmara again. This and the previous video took me back 20 years, and also to other places, like Mendefera, Adi Quala, Dekamhare, Assab... Eritrea is a truly unique place, and is a main reason why I kept on travelling all my life.

In the late 90’s a lot of Eritrean women were given work visas in Las Vegas. I worked for a human resource company that was a medical part of that process so I interacted with easily a few hundred of them. They were extremely polite, respectful, and very witty. Many of them spoke more than 2 languages as well. Most of the women very fit and beautiful. They definitely stood out from other women from that continent.

Actually it very old country. Older than Ethiopia. The Name Eritrea given by Italy during colonization. The real name was Medri Bahri also known as Bahri Negash. If you google Medri Bahri you will find the true history. Eritrea is called the gate way to Africa. Islam and Christianity came to Africa around 350 BC ish through Eritrea Red Sea. Many true history. Ethiopia became Ethiopia 1903 ish. Eritrea was a country before that . Little history for those you don’t know Eritrea or Medri Bahri in English:Land of the Sea also known as Midri Bahr, Medre Bahr, Bahr Melash or The territory of the Bahr Negash also know as Adolis the kingdom of Adolis also Punt land and Axumite kingdom was iEritrea.

This is so sad to witness. I’m Eritrean and it kills me to see my country just slowly rotting away. Politics aside we should all agree that our people deserve better. Acceptance is the first step to change. Thank you Tommy for being honest and unbiased. God bless Eritrea and Eritreans!

Question ,What do really Eritrean people get from independent 🤔 ⁉️ Freedom of speech? Freedom of movement? Freedom of doing what they want ? Freedom of independent just to celebrate independent days in all over the world, including in Addis? Or what ? Most of Eritrean left or fled Eritrea 🇪🇷 like bees 🐝 as soon as they get the so-called independent. The majority of them are living overseas as refugees and can not even go back to Eritrea and do an investment there. Eritrea is an empty country. this is why there are no universities, colleges or public infrastructures, no constitution or election, and so on. Now Eritrean is filling up in Addis quickly than Agames. They are even buying homes and doing businesses in the country they hated and seceded from..no internet, electricity, water 💧 etc Again, here in Addis & in other parts of Ethiopia, Eritrean are surpassing or more Eritrean are working and Living than Agames from the north. By the way, what were the names of the first Eritrean president or Prime Ministers before the colony by Italy 🇮🇹 or by British or Ethiopia 🇪🇹 🤔 meaning before current president 🤔

Among other things, just a couple of years back, the "Bees" from Medri BaHri, saved the "Hive" from being destroyed by its "wild bees." Shortly we will witness a variety of honey being produced within the land of BaaHriNeghestat and definitely share with the unfortunate bees in the "Hive" that are not blessed with good "queens" that take care of their own.

And what piss us more is those who dance in independence day and celebrating while we are still in slavery ... we didnt get our full independence with military ruling us to be future refugees or living in slavery ...

@@veryrelitrans3025 What do really Eritrean people get from independent well simple Q to answer but it's better you find out by asking ur grand parents. also i would like to tell you this why don't you worry on your own problem your people eating each other like a hyena 30+M ppl UNDER HUNGER ur country can't even pay 33M DEBT lol pls pls sometimes feel a little bit shame to ask such kind of question more than 250,000 ppl in addis are homeless within 3yrs of war ur 2+M ppl killed in your country. you don't have any moral to ask any question to Eritrean ppl lol how many active civil war in your country ? fix your shit before you open ur mouth but if you wanna know about Eritrea as i told you ask your grand parents who left alive from the war they will explain to you everything. Ethiopia is just another failed state soon will be follow Yugoslavia coz that's what's gonna happen to uncivilized people period.

I am addicted to your videos. All the things you said about Eritrea is very accurate. You said Eritrea is one of the poorest countries in the world, true, yet didn’t see people begging you for money. And how peaceful!!! it is to walk on the streets of Asmara or any other Eritrean cities. People don’t follow or approach you in Eritrea when they see a foreigner as it is a common occurrence in other African countries
