Eri-TV is short for Eritrean television and nominally refers to Eri-TV1, the first television channel broadcast in Eritrea. It is acknowledged as state-owned, and propagandist in purpose. Broadcasts began in January 1993 with the help of a team of Canadians.[1]
Eri-TV1 is broadcast internationally via satellite along with its sister radio station, Dimtsi Hafash. Broadcasts on Eri-TV1 are typically either news, music videos, or dramas. Both domestic and international films also play on the channel.
Eri-TV1 is broadcast mostly in Tigrinya, Arabic, English and Tigre, as well as having a few programs in Amharic, Somali and Afaan Oromoo.
Eri-TV2 is the second television channel in Eritrea. It is broadcast only domestically. Eri-TV2 provides mostly educational content. This includes English, Math, and Science lessons.
Eri- TV3 is coming up soon. Eri-TV3 would be the third channel in Eritrea. It would broadcast sports national and international.
Eri TV currently broadcasts via the Egyptian/Saudi Arabia-owned Nilesat 201, Arabsat 5C and Badr 6 satellites, and also delivers on Galaxy 19, Intelsat 8 and Eutelsat Hot Bird 13B satellites.

Ériu
In Irish mythology, Ériu (Irish pronunciation: [ˈeːrʲu]; modern Irish Éire), also called Eri, daughter of Ernmas of the Tuatha Dé Danann, was the eponymous matron goddess of Ireland.
The English name for Ireland comes from the name Ériu and the Germanic (Old Norse or Old English) word land.
Since Ériu is represented as goddess of Ireland, she is often interpreted as a modern-day personification of Ireland, although since the name "Ériu" is the older Irish form of the word Ireland, her modern name is often modified to "Éire" or "Erin" to suit a modern form.
Role and mythic portrayal
With her sisters, Banba and Fódla, she was part of an important triumvirate of goddesses. When the Milesians arrived from Galicia, each of the three sisters asked that her name be given to the country. This was granted to them, although Ériu (Éire) became the chief name in use. (Banba and Fódla are still sometimes used as poetic names for Ireland, much as Albion is used as a poetic name for Great Britain.)
Ériu, Banba and Fódla are interpreted as goddesses of sovereignty.
