On the Fringe

Episode 6: Ethiopia, Egypt, Somalia, and the Horn of Africa, Part Two


Listen Later

Hey all! We just finished recording Episode 6 of On the Fringe. On this episode, we dive more into how and why the Horn of Africa region (Ethiopia, Somalia, Egypt) is such a mess, but was still somewhat predictable—and what might happen if the entire bottom falls out of the basket…which is looking ever more likely.

I was just listening to the episode and realized that I made a BIG boo-boo and said that Somalia would attack Ethiopia in the event of a war from its airports—they can’t— because they don’t have a functional Air Force. But Egypt likely would use them if the three get into a fight!

Regardless of where you are in the world, East Africa WILL impact you. Wanna know how? Give us a few minutes of your time and we’ll explain everything.

As always, thanks for listening and feel free to leave us a comment or two! :)
