Bosaso: The only functioning port in Somalia

Post by paidmonk »

I just got a little Google Earth game going and looking around, I found that there wasn't a single ship docked on Berbera port, there were nothing more than fishing boats in Xamar, and nothing more significant in Kismayo; they're all tiny, midget, makeshift ports.

Bosaso is the only one that looks like a port, the others look like fisherman docks.

Here's Mogadishu Port:

Berbera Port:

Kismayo Port:

And the busy, robust, full-fledged Bosaso PORT:

If you don't believe me, do your own check.

^^ It wasn't even all of Cusman Maxmuud.. it was the Bah Gareen. Did you see that JSTOR article I posted here a while back? About how the Dishishe were exiled from Bosaso by the Bah Gareen?
