One Somali Soldier that succesfully destroyed an Empire

[Coeus]

Ibrahim Adeer-

In the late 17th century, Adeer, who was a soldier at the time, successfully pushed back the imperial Ajuuraan army out of Afgooye. He subsequently established the Gobroon Dynasty, after having first defeated the Ajuuraan vassal state, the Silci Kingdom.

Sultan Yusuf, who was the son of Adeer Gobroon, thus became the first sultan of the new dynasty. His son, Mahamud Ibrahim, would later succeed him atop the throne.
