I dont like the Mussolini garbage I want to see Eritreans design and build their own stuff . I always thought Eritrea was a place that was never colonized but I guess its Somalia or Ethiopia
The historical fact Italy did invade Ethiopia in the 1940s, they were there for 5 years but there was never a colony because Ethiopians never relinquished control, gave in to the invasions, so they basically fought for 5 years; Haile Selassie who was the Emperor at the time left the country to sort of gain support in the West, and only when the fascists invaded Europe; because Haile Selassie in 1925 when to the League of Nations;
Ethiopia was the only country in the League of Nations from Africa, which is quite a thing in itself at the time, most other African countries where enslaved; and he went and warned of the Fascist invasion
but they didn't listen because it was inconvenient to fight with Italy at the time but Italy and Germany invaded the rest of Europe, they then went to the aid of Ethiopia, and England sent troops from Sudan and Kenya and they pushed the Italians out 5 years later and got the country back, but it was not a colony, that's a historical fact.
