     Extractions: You are here: Home Geopolitics Conflicts in Africa by Anup Shah Africa in general, has suffered from artificial borders drawn by former imperial and colonial rulers, akin to what is usually attributed to Imperial Britain as the "divide and conquer" policy, but practiced by almost all power brokers throughout history, ancient and modern. A combination of Italy drawing the maps in this region and later, Cold War support for dictators, has been part of the historical contributary factors, amongst others, that have led to troubles today. Quick Maps Ethiopia's Haile Selassie was supported for decades by the United States for geopolitical and Cold War reasons. The Soviet Union had supported Somalia in their claim that parts of Ethiopia and Kenya were part of Somalia. There was actually a reversal of support by the two superpowers in the 1970s as well. [Check out this link for a historical look into the US role in Somalia and neighboring nations.]

     http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/africa/9902/07/ethiopia.eritrea/index.html
     
     Extractions: Web posted at: 10:29 p.m. EST (0329 GMT) ASMARA, Eritrea (CNN) Ethiopian and Eritrean troops clashed in a second day of heavy fighting Sunday, with Eritrea claiming it had repelled an Ethiopian assault on a key border outpost but the Ethiopians insisting they had inflicted heavy casualties. With the two countries moving seemingly inexorably toward a full-scale war, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan called on both sides to show restraint and try again for a diplomatic solution. Eritrea won independence from Ethiopia in 1993. The neighbors first came to blows last May in a dispute over a 620-mile border drawn during Italian colonial rule. Up to 1,000 people have died in the violence. Fearing an escalation in fighting, authorities in the Eritrean capital, Asmara, urged residents to remain indoors, warning that Ethiopian fighter planes could break a U.S.-backed moratorium on airstrikes.
