You well come, walaweyntu yagoon somalinimo waxay ku qaataan mooyee weligood wax ku kordhin bay waxwalba kugu dayayaan kulahaa magaca iska bedela. Xitaa afsomali ahaan waxa gumaystaha kahor dhulkeena la odhan jirayRambie wrote:Well saidWe have every reason to keep that name of our land. From legal point of view Somaliland name is older than Somalia. Somalia italiana colony was established in 1889, british Somaliland protectorate authority formation was agreed in 1884 by the british government and local Somaliland Elders. we also know that indepedent somaliland state was 5 days older than indepedent Somalia.
From ancestral and cultural point of view, Somaliland is the ancestral land of most somali clans of isaaq, darood,issa, samaroon and many more, its their pilgrimage where their clan founders are burried. At the other hand we have the most of every somali related signs such as the camels, black headed sheep. the poets, nomadic life style and laasgeel rock arts.
Somaliland is the birth place and home of all these traditions,myth and legends/stories including zaylici,jaandheer,batar buraanbur. Dhegdheer,Araweelo,bucurbacayr, qoryo ismaris, shax, qabyaalad.boodhari,ina sanweyne,ina xagaa dheere. Cigaal shiidaad and many more.
From history point of view Somaliland is the home of the greatest Somali prides such the adal empire led by ahmed gurey, dervish movements led by sayid mohamed the mad mullah, post dervish movements after the death of of the mullah led by sheikh bashir. Religous saints such as sheikh abaadir,awbarkhadle, sheikh madar, aw bustaale. And we also have the greatest number of ancient somali towns such as berbera,saylac,lasqoray,bulahar,maydh and xiis.
