Re: Colonial Architecture in Africa - Some are still intact while others are in ruin

Selam,

What is your point. What countries are represented here beside Eritrea ? If you admit that Eritrea was colonized by Italy, then, as a new country, the borders of Eritrea remain colonial boundary as the OAU stipulated, and Ethiopia accepted at the end of Second World War. BTW, the last image you posted, Saint Mary Orthodox Church in Asmara is not a colonial building. :lol: :lol:

Colonial architecture doesn’t necessarily mean the country has been colonized.
