While there has been a lot of coverage in 2018 about conflicts around the world, there was also one that ended. 

War broke out between Ethiopia and Eritrea in 1998 over the border and other issues, killing an estimated 80,000 people before fighting finally ended in 2000 in a contested peace deal.

However, tensions simmered over the position of the frontier until this year when Ethiopia's Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed offered to end the standoff as part of a package of reforms that have reshaped the political landscape of the Horn of Africa.

Coletta Wanjohi talked with both Ethiopians and Eritreans about what the peace agreement has meant for them.
