With blood and Iron will we reach the fatherland
Sure cherrypick one aspect of what i said and yes, where your capital sits is important. Asmara is different from Mogadishu, Asmara is sitting nearly 3kms in the sky. Whereas Mogadishu is at sea level, lowlands traditionally beg from foreign invasion, ask the Polish.The distance between Asmara and the closest Ethiopian city to the broder Adwa is 131km. So, being close to the border doesn't mean shit. Bombadishu is no longer fit for that title.
If you have ever heard the saying Geography determines destiny, you know why Mogadishu has always been the sit of power and never Garoowe
