Should "Somali" name be changed to integrate Butla

Post by CrazySommies »

I never thought of this until I heard it today from an angry old man who was upset at what happened to the control of Kismayo.

He said "Somali" is tribal name of Irir Samaale, and thats why he likes his country Butland than Somalia. He does not want to have anything to do with "Somali".

I always ondered why we called our country Somaliland, and they called theirs this funny name Butlaan.

Ur views will be appreciated.

Because that is the regions historical name. That is what the ancient Egyptians use to call it, it means: Land of the Gods. The historical significance of the area and the name is available on google.

Who cares what they Call Somalia???
It's not something that concerns me, or my people.


Lakiin, if I had to give a suggestion I would change "Somalia" to, Xabaasha. It's just one big graveyard, and along with the dead bodies it appears what was left of the Hutu maskax waa la aasay.
Yeah and I'd call the capital city, Mogdisho...Gaajo.

^^ Walilaahi inaad xaasidad tahay! Gaajo kuteh! Why would you name a Hutu city 'Hunger'? At least call it "Tutsie" so that they can remember what their cousins did to them!
