It has to be more than that. Somalia is the most homogenous country in Africa. 85% ethnic Somalis....100% Muslim...same culture...same language. Yet the one of the most conflict prone states in Africa.

Isn't Somalia split between 3 Main Tribes that have been constantly fighting for power?

If it was like Japan where only one main group/clan ( Yamato people ) who dominated all other ethnic groups in their land. It'd be a whole lot easier.

These People arent historically the "same" though. I do think that Africa as a whole needs to flip an emergency switch and focus on the bigger picture that will save everyones behind though.

Most Nations are made up of different peoples anyway.

Its not tribes its clans. Civil war broke out cause of stupid dictator bombing northern somalis. So theres about 2 automnomus nations trying to break away mainly somaliland and puntland(there still part of somalia as lonng there clan in PM of the country if not they will try to serperate)


Somaliland is dominated by isaaq clan and also the gudurbusi, and other darood subclans Its the most peaceful and democratic part of somalia even though it isnt recognized.

Puntland is runed by majerteens the subclan of daroods. While the capital is runned by hawiye prob the biggest clan but they seem they cant get there shyt together. To be honest rather we split up cause the current gov of somalia dont know how to run shyt. How they getting punked by al shabaab while the other two autonomous nations handled terrorist situation with ease. Zoomalia forever will be a joke


Long live puntland and somaliland :ahh::banderas:

shyt sounds complicated. Could you explain the whole Adal empire and Ajuran empire? I find Somali's history interesting.

Word of advice, you should be wary of the explanations and history you receive from Somalis. You often don't get objective accounts. Everyone will give you the story from the lens of their clan. Just like the post you quoted.

Word. He's conveniently forgot the point out that his region and Puntland were first traitors and were getting arms from Ethiopian dictator Menginstu and the bombing started from that. Plus, the genocide committed by the Hawiye is conveniently left out too. But that's here or there. 100 % correct of the bias.

Plus, the only reason the North wants secession is because they don't have the balls to fight with the Daarood and Hawiyes in the South and Central Somalia for supremacy. The same logic goes for Puntland as well. They p*ssy too, they invited Ethiopians in '07 to do their dirty work. No honor in both semi-autonomous states. Fukk them. Who needs them anyways, because the South has more natural resources than the North and has adequate farmland for surplus for international trade.

Bro theres isnt even any unity in the south you got jubbaland and galmudug making there own gov and autonomous states. While the al shabab situation hasnt even been fixed yet. Yall dont even have a proper army being protected by amisom. PL had cleared al shabaab within a day while villa somalia is still struggling to get rid of em.

Like i said move the capital to neutral spot in somalia ....somewhere in the north while things settle down in villa somalia


Why aint PL and SL getting fukked up? Why is it north somalia the only safe area? Both got proper functioning and democratic gov. I can enjoy my time at hargeisa/bosasso without worrying about being blowned up

I'm down for that but I hate the idea of secession, I can live with federation but never secession. If that happens, I gladly finance/support a Godane figure to create chaos. We need unity and then we rebuild to conquer our real enemies, the Ethiopians. Plus, the security of the south has improved drastically in the last 3 years. I'm suspicious why'll we need to move to "neutral" space, when historically Xamar has been the center, AMISOM will leave soon, the UN is allowing the Somali gov't to rebuild it's army, I can't wait for revenge against Ethiopia. That's the real opps, the Khat eaters in the North need to stop with the Faqash cuqdad and realize their enemies is next to their borders instead of inside their borders.

Fair enough bro but only way i can see SL esp coming back to somalia is to have heavy presence in gov in somalia. Ethiopia is already got influence in SL due the berbera port there competing with egypt and uae.

But you gotta go to SL the next generation dont even say there from somalia :ohhh:

But ethiopia needs to back off though cause they landlocked country they need to have influence in somalia. Look up general gabre.

I just wished siad barre never came in power and most likely somalia wouldve been more united and different. He got to xaasiid and shouldve just taken ogaden back.

Hence why the Ethiopians love creating a balkanized Somalia, pitting one clan against another while dictating and taking advantage of the disunity by using the Berbera port without giving full monetary value of it's worth to SL gov't and building a dam that will drain the Jubba river (drying up the river and thus depending on them for hydro-strategy). They are the master Geppetto of the East man. The Kenyans don't give a fukk but now they do with Al-Shabab. I don't mind Isaaq leading the national gov't fam, I like their idea of Upper House of Elders because it gives the people a voice. I also can see Hargeisa or Burco becoming the financial capital of the country. I don't mind that fam but I mind separation of our people, it's only due to a clan beef clearly a generation ago. I'm sad these kids in Waqoyi think that but they can be changed. We need one enemy to reunite and that's the Ethiopians.

Plus, Somalia needs all its native sons that includes Isaaq. We need their finesse, their prolonged state of peace, how they reconcile the people and all that. I'm a Daarood and saying this. Those conflicts of the 90's were when we kids, it's our generation to rebuild our country from the fukkups of our parents and grandparents. I'm dead ass.
