Deadliest Roads - Ethiopia
Writer-actor and David Baddiel and actor-writer Hugh Dennis drive the long, bumpy road van Ethiopian capital Addis Abeba to Axum, the ancient Coptic center that claims to hold the Arc of the Covenant. The Italian colonization constructed it as part of a network to enable effective control over the temporarily subdued native empire, a complex tapestry of Christian and Muslim peoples and tribes. The nation's mismanagement o-under the communists and civil war left their mark on road and areas it crosses. The poor infrastructure is part of general underdevelopment and widespread poverty, with modest tourism regardless of a rich heritage in historic and natural monuments.
