Ethiopians love their country hence it doesn’t completely collapse and someone else just takes over. Somalis have clowns and illiterate cab drivers in charge who are only there to loot and steal. That is why Ethiopia can get away with this.
It hasn't completely collapsed because no one has tried topple and remove the government from the outside. Everything else just happens from within the country of Ethiopia. It is no different from the regime change that happened in Somalia during 1969 and the same thing that took place in multiple other countries around the world. When people remove the government from within it goes on.
Whereas with Somalia you had Ethiopia and their alilies isreal US etc funding/arming, organize insurgencies to topple the Government, then continued to arm/fund warlord proxies that emerged out of them against the people and then slap arms embargo and economics sanctions to cripple the country and then invade it. Of course it's going to collapse. They created the same conditions in the middle east as well.
It says nothing about our lack of love for our country. Somalis love their country so much that they fought off Mossad/Ethiopian/US backed warlords and volunteered n mass to lay their lives down to fight an invasion.
Somali politicians in office are not cab drivers either most of them are highly educated, i mean even HSM people complain about was a career educator and founded East Africa's Nr. 1 university, so much for being illiterate.
Ethiopian leaders are even bigger clowns , they watch their people live in misery and starve to death but pretend nothing is happening. They also loot their own people of their meager resources to excerbate the issues in their country, like a feudal overlord stealing from peasants.
Ethiopia's history of famine denial
Alex de Waal writes about the starvation that conflicts cause, and the difficulties in tackling it.

Most of Tigray has been sealed off from the world since then. Aid agencies are beginning to send their staff back in, and what they describe is disturbing: hospitals ransacked, people living in fear unable to obtain food or money, deaths from hunger and treatable illnesses.
Some Tigrayans who are able to make phone calls tell of massive looting, burning of crops, and literally millions of people beyond the reach of humanitarian aid.
The Ethiopian government insists that these reports are exaggerated at best, and that it has the humanitarian crisis under control. It says that only 2.5 million people are in need and says it can reach almost all of them.
It asks the European Union - its biggest donor - not to be distracted by the "transient challenge" of emergency aid to Tigray, and to continue its generous development aid to the country.
However, there is a history of Ethiopian governments hiding their famines.
In 1973, Jonathan Dimbleby's film The Unknown Famine exposed mass starvation, hidden from the world by Emperor Haile Selassie. About 200,000 people died in the famine.
The emperor's callous indifference brought Ethiopians on to the streets to protest and he was overthrown the next year.
In 1984, Tigray and the next-door province of Wollo were the epicentre of another famine, this time caused by a combination of drought and war, that led to between 600,000 and one million deaths.
The Ethiopian government at the time denied the existence of that famine until it was exposed by a BBC film crew, led by Michael Buerk and Mohamed Amin. That news report moved pop star Bob Geldof to record Do They Know It's Christmas? and provoke a global outpouring of charity.
That famine discredited the military government of Colonel Mengistu Haile Mariam at home and abroad. Ethiopians hated being seen as beggars by the rest of the world.
