Profile summary of Eritrea

Eritrea is a country located in the Horn of Africa. It shares borders with Ethiopia to the south, Sudan to the west, and Djibouti to the east. The country has a long and complex history, and has been affected by a number of political and social issues over the years.

Eritrea gained independence from Ethiopia in 1993 after a long and bloody struggle. However, the country has faced a number of challenges since independence, including economic difficulties, political repression, and human rights abuses. The government has been accused of widespread corruption, and there are concerns about the lack of freedom of speech and political dissent in the country.

Eritrea has also been involved in a number of conflicts and disputes with its neighbors, particularly Ethiopia. The two countries fought a border war from 1998 to 2000, and tensions have continued to flare up periodically since then.

Despite these challenges, Eritrea has made some progress in recent years in terms of economic development and improving relations with other countries. The country has a growing tourism industry, and there are efforts underway to improve infrastructure and increase foreign investment. However, much work remains to be done in order to address the many issues facing the country and ensure a stable and prosperous future for its people.
