Eritrea

Eritrea is a country on the Horn of Africa, next to Ethiopia and Djibouti. It has a mix of Italian, Egyptian, and Turkish architecture, especially in the capital Asmara and Massawa on the Red Sea. Eritrea is also one of the only countries where steam locomotives are regularly used for revenue service. Interestingly, Eritrea has no majority or official language.

This is where Noah is from, technically.

Going directly west from Eritrea will bring you to Nicaragua.
