The post that was quoted here has been removed“ In reality, the border was settled by TREATY NEGOTIATED ON BROADLY EQUAL TERMS
between Ethiopia and Italy. An INTERNATIONAL TREATY is very different from Kevcvs57's”
Northern Ireland / Ulster was created by a treaty. I’m sure you have some sort of idiotic point your trying to make but for the life of me I don’t know what it is.
The ‘Treaty of Versailles’ was also an outstandingly successful example of an international treaty.
International Treaties are usually mechanisms for carving up the homelands of relatively weak people’s by relatively strong signatories. I guess the people of Tigray should just suck it up.

Fortunately for the Chinese diaspora no reasonable person would consider her typical of that thoughtful and intelligent ethnic group.

@athousandyoung saidI think it’s because the border was agreed by the Ethiopians and Eritreans probably ( certainly from their perspective) at the expense of the Tigray region and its people.
Italy is no longer in Eritrea so why is the border still there?
Italy is a bit of a white herring.

@kevcvs57 saidYa, I agree. Italy got thrown out in 1941 by the Allies, and England took over.

The Tigray independence movement began in 1961, long time ago.
The Eritrians are funny people. It is supposedly the world's most secretive country, sorta like a black hole.

The perpetrators were said to be Ethiopian soldiers and their Eritrean and Amhara militia allies.
---------------------------------------------
Here is how I see it, the Eritreans and the Amhara people have a big ax to grind with the Tigray people.
I do not think Ethiopia asked them to get involved, I think they just pig-piled on as payback for earlier abuses that Tigray gave them
One thing is certain, war never changes, it is definitely universal.
