A country of eastern Africa, west of the Red Sea. In ancient times, it formed a part of many kingdoms at different periods. Its capital is Asmara. Under Italian rule from 1869 to 1890 and under the British as a protectorate until 1952, it was federated with Ethiopia in 1952 and was made one of its provinces in 1962. In 1991 Eritrea was established as a de facto independent state and became fully independent in 1993. The name Eritrea alludes to its location near the Red Sea since it comes from the Greek erythros, red.
