Eritreans celebrated their Independence Day on May 24, but what was the celebration about?

Is being 'independent' from their own country Ethiopia, something to celebrate?  Independence or not Eritreans identity will not change; they will always be Tigrians just like the Tigrians in Ethiopia, and the Afar people will always be Ethiopians. So, what are they celebrating? Democracy? 

It is amazing how politicians use nationalism to trick people into believing they have achieved something. But in reality, the independence of Eritrea has no benefit for Eritreans, except, of course, for those in power.
