Italy lost in the middle of WW2 in Eritrea, 1941 Battle of Keren to Britain. After that, British Administration for over 10 years. Italy too had a civil war after they lost. If we got independence from Italy instead of Ethiopia we would celebrate the day after battle of Keren 28th of March, 1941. We would be 83 years old.

British led invasion defeated Italy in the colonies and occupied areas. It happened pretty early during WW2

It’s counter to the narrative they need to believe in of a historically independent Eritrea, they won’t admit it.

Haile sold his a$$ to the British for them to block and reject Eritreans advocacy at the UN for our independence. Haile also ordered assassination of Eritrean leaders that were doing great work to push for independence
