The Horn of Africa States is notoriously an unstable, volatile, hungry and environmentally devastated region, which is always in the news for one or two of these recurring devilish reasons. The region which consists of the SEED countries of Somalia, Ethiopia, Eritrea and Djibouti, is known for its intra-state or inter-state wars, that seem to flare up from time to time. Currently there are such flare ups in Ethiopia’s Amhara, region, Somalia’s northern regions and potential clashes between Eritrea and Ethiopia as a result of the quest of Ethiopia to have access to the Red Sea. Terror groups also operate in the region and have been a constant pain for Somalia. No wonder a failed African Union Mission force of some 19,000 is still in the country after nearly some 16 years, and there are the floods!!!!
