Well done, Sly. I heard that Eritrea was one of the most difficult visas for Americans. Thanks for showing us this beautiful place. 🇪🇷

[@AdayHiwet]

I am Eritrean, my kids have Eritrean father too, my kids born, and raised in the U S . for my daughter to get a visa was hell, and yet they did not issue her. I use to go twice a year to care for my parents. Now they are deceased. ዓወት ንሓፋሽ ፡ ❤💙💚💛

I have always wanted to visit that city. A quarter of my blood is from there. Every time I see you eat the traditional food (Injera), I die of craving. How I miss it!

[@owingsmillss]

The strength of Eritrea is that it’s the ideology of unity & equality of the 9 ethnic groups that is emphasized & ingrained in every body . No body is better than the next group.

[@jjjplane]

You must be insane it’s held together by dictatorship. More than half the young population has left fleeing from poverty and oppression. Yea unity and equality of the police state on your neck.

[@heruy8274]

Eritrea has no strenght. It is one of the poorest and least developed countries in the world. The only thing strong about Eritrea is the state that control everything in it.

[@perffeto]

That is an absolute LIE. Eritreans used to be united and no one would see their difference (that was during the era of colonization). Now, they are divided and their difference is similar to the difference of their finger prints. Let alone the different ethnic groups, even the dominant and ruling Tigrinya speaking ethnic group is divided in several factions.

[@Eritrawit2027]

It’s a lie. Don’t try to spreading your false narration. These people who explain this in the video they don’t have another chance because they are afraid to speak the truth because of the government

[@fethiibrahim-k5v]

just like brothers from the same father and mother have difference, creation or an attempt to create one single national identity is probably the greatest achievement of Shabia and as a result Eritrea is no where near the ethnic frictions and rivalry of Ethiopia. @@perffeto

[@peaceloveunity3079]

We sincerely thank you for showing our country to the world. Eritrea 🇪🇷 is a country with a small population, The people of the country live in love and peace. What can we say, the country is broken, destroyed , Eritrea has been under heavy sanctions for more than 20 years, everything is closed to us. Eritrea as a country has no foreign aid and loans from the IMF but we are still surviving . When I look at my country, it remained me like Cuba. Its cities have been destroyed and Cuba is a country under heavy sanctions too. We belive in God Almighty soon our country will make it . 🙏🤗🥰 🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷

Really, everyone in Eritrea surviving because of remittances from their family members in the abroad. Don’t say sanctions you know why is Eritrea in this situation. Because in Eritrea there isn’t any freedom like freedom of expression, no press freedom, no freedom of movement, prisoned without trial, a country with out constitution, no parliament, 32 under dictatorship, one president for 32 year and one party ….. it’s so hard all to explain here. Why the city empty and peaceful because all the young generation either in outside country becoming refugee or in the military services in far a way from the city.

I see The Russian tanks : the Russian military commanders said they were so frustrated during the war , because no matter how many tanks & weapons they gave Ethiopian leader mengestu at that time , they ended up in the hands of the Eritrean fighters . The Ethiopian fighters their heart was not into the fighting , the Eritreans had a mission to Asmara.

[@HelyBel]

That was not right the Ethiopian wanted to kill us stop spreading lies the Russians did not give weapon to Ethiopia we fought a hard war the Ethiopians were not reluctant. They use to have the speech we don’t need the people we only need the land. Our fore mother breast was cut badly mistreated by the Ethiopians. Ps no on forced Ethiopia to mistreat us they did that their own

Great video again. I like that you are open minded and you wanted to discover and find out for yourself and you are curious and make great connection with the people. You also have very positive outlook and you make the best if what you get. BTW, between 12-2 pm is the Sun the hottest in the city and most businesses close for lunch. In the old days, people use to take nap breaks. The city comes alive again after 4 or 5 pm in the afternoon and specially during the street evening walks, which almost a tradition.

Shoulder check lool, I laughed hard when you said that. This is my country and I have been away from it for such a long time that I felt as a tourist watching this video. Please visit Keren, the second largest city in Eritrea and you will see how Eritrean people are so divers and the lands are totally different. Asmara is in high lands and Keren is in Lower land. Btw Keren is the place where the Italians were defeated by British in the second world War. You will see war cemetery contains the war graves of 602 Italian soldiers and 614 Ascari (colonial troops) who fell in 1941. In total, there are 1216 war Graves. Keren has history in the world stage. Thanks for your videos. I will check for more soon. (for North American readers, Keren is the name derived from Eritrean language akhranat meaning mountains because Keren is surrounded by mountains. So Keren is not that middle age nasty woman in North America who creats problems 😂)
