You can look into other videos where people visit Eritrea if you wish. Sabbatical and Ilya Varlamov get into the dusty real world streets and meet people. Food served, the coffee ritual, livestock market, port. Many buildings are seriously bashed up, crumbling, from lack of maintenance and I guess war damage. Eritrea went through a tough, little known war with Ethiopia, who could use access to the sea. This is a rare example of changing borders on the post colonial African continent. There is also a "Nightlife in Asmara Eritrea | What to Expect" video.
