Asmara looks fine as f*ck

[SomaliWadaniSoldier]

Ethiopians and Eritreans making peace.
The Geeljire Nation of 68 cant even come together in Hargeisa, Garowe or Xamar for peace talks.



O Nation of 68, take this L gently.

Mogadisho during the 1980’s looked better than Asmara does today so we ain’t sharing this L with you it’s your people that destroyed the capital city and killing other Somalis Who happen to be the same tribe as siad barre

Everyone is leaving Eritrea.

Biggest refugee-producing country (per capita). Even more than Syria.

African dictators often build fancy capitals for themselves. At least the Ethiopians are investing in the most cities. Eritrea is a mess.

Only their capital is industrialised, rest of the country is full of shitty villages and towns.

I heard many Ethiopians claim eritrean to go to the west. Eritrea is only like 4 million so wouldn't the Country be empty if this was the case lmao

true. many Ethiopian Tigrays claim to be Eritrean in order to get their asylum application accepted.

They have started investing in places like the Tigray region. Now they have started to expand their port options.

All those beautiful modernist buildings were built by Italian architects during the colonial era. They haven't done much since.

If they were clever they could use those buildings for tourism. Those buildings are like hidden historical gems.

Mashallah. Asmara is beautiful and also very clean like Kigali, Rwanda. Mogadishu was once like that but has no hope anymore. Inshallah, we will replicate this in other parts of Somalia.

 

[Saalax Bidaar]

Can’t you see it was built mostly during the colonial times.

 

[superpower_2050]

Like others have said it is the Italians that built that during colonial times. But the streets look very clean i guess that is the benefits of having such a small population size but gotta give them props for that.

On a previous thread I talked about the fact that Asmara is perhaps the most beautiful city in Africa.

It is actually called “little Rome”

Fascists Benito Mussolini bizarrely ordered the building of Asmara in his days. He hired an esteemed Architect that had modern thinking. Mussolini proclaimed Eritrea as a true province of Italy. The man wanted to make it the Pretoria of the East for Italy.
