Good point.
I could write a long essay about all the mismanagement, but it's worse than that. Essentially, "Eritrea" is a fake country with a wrong identity.
The culture revolves around not being "Ethiopian" so they actively try to be the complete opposite. At the same time, they steal and take from "Ethiopian" attributes by using the fake stupid word "Habesha" which has no meaning.
If you ask 10 people what "Habesha" means, they will all tell you something different. "Habesha" forces the native Cushites to try and emulate their Arab masters.
"Eritrea" was supposed to split into two, the lower half goes to Tigray/Abyssinia and the upper half goes to Nubia/Sudan. Instead, we have a Tigrayan mafia in "Eritrea" and an "Eritrean" mafia in Tigray.
I am now preparing to leave my old self behind and rejoin with my "Ethiopian" comrades. I'm even thinking to skip past a partnership with Tigray and join somewhere in the central region.
I could see myself being a Gojami or maybe Argobba. Although I think it would be easier if I became Agew or Kimant.
I'm excited for the future either way!
