After the war ended, the Eritrea-Ethiopian Boundary Commission, created by the UN, got involved with this predicament and established that Badme, a distributed territory in the crossfires of the conflict, was to be owned by Eritrea. ]]> 2017-04-06 17:19:18 UTC https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165212352 #3 How long has it been occurring? 20jacoabi https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165212664 After long border disputes, war finally broke out in May of 1998 on the Ethiopian/Eritrean border and ended at the end of May in 2000. ]]> 2017-04-06 17:20:22 UTC https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165212664 #4 What impact is this conflict or cleansing having on the ethnic groups involved? The nation? The world? 20jacoabi https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165212921 The two year border dispute ended with the agreeing over a peace treaty, but the conflict isn't fully resolved, but the disputes are being held under control by the EEBC (Eritrea-Ethiopia Boundary Commission). ]]> 2017-04-06 17:21:06 UTC https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165212921 #5 Can this conflict or ethnic cleansing be resolved? Explain how it can be resolved or why it can't. 20jacoabi https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165213186 Both of the countries accepted a peace plan in mid-1990 that was administered by the Organization for African Unity (OAU), yet they still blamed each other for the start of the border dispute.  The war was finally over in the early-mid 2000 and conflicts still erupted until December of 2000 when they both finally agreed to a peace deal. ]]> 2017-04-06 17:22:00 UTC https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165213186 #6 Is the world getting involved in this conflict or ethnic cleansing? Should other countries get involved? Explain. 20jacoabi https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165213465 No major conflicts have joined into resolving this tension nor has any other neighboring countries. The two countries have been given little pushes here and there to help them pass over it,  but in the end, there was still 80,000 people killed over the 2 years of war. If the problems escalate and get more violent, then countries should be getting involved. For know, it only appears that there is some tension between the two countries and there is no sign of it escalating into something bigger.]]> 2017-04-06 17:22:52 UTC https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165213465 20venamck https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165226248 2017-04-06 18:00:22 UTC https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165226248 20jacoabi https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165235698 2017-04-06 18:26:48 UTC https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165235698 20venamck https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165236195 2017-04-06 18:28:26 UTC https://padlet.com/20jacoabi/bom1q8t9zlse/wish/165236195
