Eritrea became an independent nation in 1993. Various language policies were implemented in the country between 1941 and 1993. At one point Amharic, the language of the political elite, was made the official language; Tigrinya, the most- spoken language of Eritrea, was banned and Tigrinya books were burned.

Tigrinya (ti-GRIN-yuh) is spoken in Eritrea and Ethiopia in the Horn region of Africa. The Tigrinya (also referred to as Tigrean) people are decendants of early Semitic peoples who originally settled in the Horn of African about 1000 BC. Tigrinya is the primary language of the people.
