Not bad but you need to work on Bakool, Mudug and Shabeelada Dhexe.

Possibly use sugarcane or cotton for Shabeelada dhexe...or fruits or even a cow. I think fish represents Banaadir more than it does anywhere else in Somalia.

Top notch. :up: :up: :up:

Only thing I'd change is that camels are much more ubiquitous with Mudug than Galguduud and I'm not sure how well ostriches are related to Mudug, maybe put spear/shield or nomadic accessory for Galguduud, or perhaps a uranium/mineral logo. Also, Bari is very uninspired, it deserves the fish symbol a lot more than Shabelle Dhexe or any other region - for Shabelle Dhexe I'd put a river or some farming symbol there. The acacia tree in Sanaag's flag belongs more in Togdheer and perhaps put a boat logo for Sanaag - or perhaps a fish logo for Sanaag and a boat logo for Bari.

Lol@ EyesOnly, she knows her regions gabarta. :up: My great-great grandfather owned a cotton field somewhere in Middle Shabelle, in fact I was told story of him marrying my paternal great-grandfather's sister, supposedly she was a divorcee, they claimed she can't have kids, so he married her and they said why did you marry that Maa-dhasho. He replied if she doesn't give birth to kids, she'll give birth to Cotton (something like that) i.e. she will work on the fields.

I think to this day there is still SugarCane in Middle Shabelle, but I don't know about Cotton.

I personally like the Sool one the most for its symbolic meaning.

Overall, they're amazing :up:

Great work Cumar, :up:

But I agree with the other members. Sh/dhexe should have a river and other farming symbols like cotton and flowers. The fish is kinda off

Sugar canes are all over middle shabelle region. Jowhar is the cotton capital of Somalia
