Amharas and Tigrays would still be the top dog. Amharic being the official language and the most powerful elites all Habash.

KnowThySelf,

How come you are so clueless about the Horn yet you are so into its politics? I'm trying to understand that. First you said Siad Barre was Majerteein President, which had all the Somalis laughing.

Now you think Somalis have bigger population than Amhara?

Let me break it down.

Somalis are roughly 10-15 million.
Amhara are roughly 25-30 million

The biggest ethnic in the Horn is the Oromo and they number above 35 million. The Borana alone has same population as the Somalis.

Tigrais are of minority and number roughly 5 million.

Horn African state would only work if it was based on neo-fuctionalism system similar to the EU where respective states formed economic, cultural and infrastructure integration but bigger is not always better. This is being currently explored by Ethiopia and Djibouti and by 2020 Djibouti should be in a political union with Ethiopia.

You should take lessons from Hodan94.

I suggest Somalis first bring together Karaan and Wardhiigley together and remove the AMISOM barbwire.

I am a somali supremacist, if we could restrict movement into Somali lands, than I'd be up for it in a federal structure. But I'd rather we just integrated economically instead of politically.

If Somalis were top dog I'd be open to it. Ethiopia's lush farmland in Oromia and Awash is too tempting to turn down. And they benefit because they get access to free ports. Lakiin we know Somalis are only interested in killing other Somalis so that's never gonna happen.
