    Ethiopia and Somalia
    or...officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and the Federal Republic of Somalia
    Two bordering countries in the Horn of Africa, which is the part of Africa that looks like, ya know, a horn. It’s not only a peninsula, but considered a geopolitical region, with around 140 million people.
    Ethiopia and Somalia are the two largest countries in the Horn of Africa, along with Eritrea and Djibouti, which will likely be a future video for this series, by the way.
    Which two African countries should I compare for this series next? Let me down below. Thanks for watching this motion picture.

After all, the great majority of people in these countries are followers of Abrahamic Religion (Christianity and Islam), and not Hinduism, Buddhism or any other religion. People in this region have so many common things (color of the skin, culture, psychology, world view, etc.). I remember when I was conducting my Masters and PH.D studies in Europe in the 70s and 80s, my country Ethiopia and Somalia were at war. Then my best friend was a Somali student called Abdulkadir and many other Somalis and Sudanis. Imagine, even war can't separate these people let alone religion. Cheers,

Horn of Africans share so many commonalities and yet have been a bunch of teenagers that continue to destroy one another. I hope we adopt your optimistic worldview. I am Ethiopian and yet an ethnic Somali. I grew up with both communities on either side of the border.

They ruled for 50 years but re-unification was not impossible because in the post Italian decades there was a strong pro-Ethiopia unification political movement in the colony. Political repression by HS and especially by Dergi is what produced a separation movement resulting in the establishment of Eritrea as a sovereign and independent country in 1993.

      @Mr.Nichan Před rokem +1

      Is Ethiopia really that secluded? Ethiopia is exactly the kind of place I would expect to have Jews. It's not that far from Israel (compared to, say, Spain or Russia), and I it's probably even mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, even if Sheba is actually Yemen, not Ethiopia. Without even looking it up, I would guess they probably had Jews in Ethiopia before Christianity and Islam even existed. Jews spread in all directions, particularly after the wars with the Romans, and thus ended up all over the region. I wouldn't except Ethiopia to be an exception. Also, I know Ethiopia has historically been accepting of Abrahamic religious minorities fleeing persecution, since the Christian Kingdom of Axum supposedly accepted some of the first Muslims fleeing persecution by polytheistic Arabs. Also, I think the Jews would have been fleeing the Romans around the same time Christianity was first reaching Ethiopia, and, given that Christianity is of Jewish origin, the two might even be related. The Jewish Kingdom of Simien/Beta Israel is interesting, though, since there haven't been many Jewish states. There HAVE been other officially Jewish states outside the Levant, though: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Jewish_states_and_dynasties , including for a long time in pre-Islamic Yemen.

    Actually, the First Italo-Ethiopian War dragged on well into the 1890s. What finally put an end (for the time) on Italian hopes to conquer Ethiopia, was the 1896 Battle of Adowa, where black Africans for once was equipped with modern equipment, like bolt-action repeating rifles, and showed that if equipped to a similar standard, Africans could defeat Europeans.
    Somalia, in the 1990s, had no government. That's how bad it was, and it was a state of affairs which held on until the Islamic Courts took power in 2007. A move which was swiftly nullified by a Western-backed Ethiopian invasion.

The Italian occupation of Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Somalia (as the colony of Italian East Africa since much of Somalia was re-occupied) ended in 1941 primarily because of British Empire invasions (primarily by Indian, South African, and eastern African troops).
