Abstract

For many years the Horn of Africa has had more
than its fair share of troubles in comparison to many
other territorial expanses. Indeed the Horn could be
described as a ‘hot spot’ for armed conflict, caused
by a variety of factors.1 The Horn of Africa
incorporates Ethiopia, Somalia, Djibouti and
Eritrea.2 The most recent high-profile troubles in the
area have taken place between Ethiopia and
Somalia3, or it may be more appropriate to say that
the troubles have involved those countries and
others.
