The ancient name for the central regions of Somalia is Ajan, which the Greeks called Azania (the -ia and the end is like "-land" in English) and the Arabs called Dar Ajam.

I think it should take back its original name, Ajan State

Ajam sounds Arabic. Anyway James Dahl please stop promoting federalism in south central Somalia. We don't like it, we don't want it and we don't need it.

We believe in one super state from South Galkayo to Somali Kenyan border. Come up with a name for that.

It is! Ajan is an alternative too, or Azania. The ancient Greek geographers called the area the "Beaches and Bluffs of Azania"

edit: I'll edit to Ajan instead.

When I hear the word Azania, my mind automatically thinks of:

ONLF

qaxooti

Kenyan

Bantu

Mohamed Abdi Mohamed (Gandhi)

New Kablalax

Faroole

Puntland

Treachery

Weakness

Servitude
