If the Somali diaspora is just a fraction of the entire Somali pop, I don't get why silly niggas think it's the end of the world when they see a Somali chick with a madow.

First off you counted Arab and Hindi, but you left out a lot of Somali tribes. second Isaaq isn't equal to Darood and Hawiye.

I always thought Daarod was the biggest, especially since we cover most of the regions Somalis live in.

In Somalia i would say Darood 25% Isaaq 25% & Hawiye 25% Digil & Mirifle 10% Dir 7% Cadcaads, Bantu, Madhibans, Arabs, Indians & the rest 8%..

But in NFD & OGADENIA Darood are the Majority.

Darod is not that big in Somalia, Hawiye and Isaaq are slightly bigger than them inside Somalia proper.

Figures are projected from 1950s (colonial) data.

Darod heavily fled the country (large diaspora), so their numbers inside Somalia could be even much lower than this.

All clans fled.

Inside Somalia this is about right.

Darood & hawiye

Harti = Mudulood, Galjecel & sheikhal.
Marehan = HG
Lelkase = Hawadle
Awrtable = Duduble
Absame = Murursade, Degodi, Garre & others..

Darood & Isaaq

Harti + Absame = HY + HA + Arap
Marehan = HJ
Lelkase = Cidagale
Awrtable = Ayub
