Asmara, the capital of Eritrea actually has a ton of Italian fascist era art-deco futurist architecture that seems incredibly out of place. The Italians tried to build it up as a model city during their ill-fated colonial exploits. Not quite the same but in this day and age it must look like it in the middle of that country.
