Migrants from North Africa arrive, escorted by Italian Guardia di Finanza, at the southern Italian island of Lampedusa in this March 24, 2011 file picture. Thousands of Eritreans attempt each year to make a trip to reach Europe, fleeing one of Africa’s poorest and most isolated nations, a place where army conscription with pitiful pay can last years. Many die on the trek. Probably all of the more than 360 migrants who drowned in a shipwreck near Italy’s coast in October 2013 were Eritrean, though many are still unidentified.
