In the article "Vancouver Company Taking the Lead in Eritrea Gold Rush,"
there is an error. It falls in the following sentence:

*"Eritrea's 30-year fight with neighbouring Ethiopia ended in 1991
when rebels defeated government forces, and although its independence
was shaken two years later by a border war ... "*

I assume that you are alluding to the Eritrea-Ethiopia Border War, if so
then the border war "erupted" in 1998, which would be seven years since de
facto independence (1991).

A correction would be appreciated, thank you.
