Eritrea, officially the '''State of Eritrea''', is a very little-known country in East UsefulNotes/{{Africa}} North of UsefulNotes/{{Ethiopia}} that holds the notable distinction of having the single lowest freedom of news media on the planet, worse even than [[UsefulNotes/NorthKorea North Korea]]. This is because there’s only one party (The People's Front for Democracy and Justice, if you were wondering) that hasn’t held elections, closed all the private media and has done all the typical stuff of an authoritarian government.

The relations of the country with its neighbors are not very good, with wars and frontier disputes ongoing (including with Yemen… at the other side of the sea). With Ethiopia in particular, they're especially poor, particularly with their polarizing positions in the Somali conflict and the fact that both governments try to destabilize each other.

The relations of the country with his neighbors are not very good, with wars and frontier disputes ongoing (including with Yemen… at the other side of the sea). With Ethiopia, in particular, they're particularly poor, especially with their polarizing positions in the Somali conflict and the fact that both governments try to destabilize each other.
