Medieval Horn of Africa

[Caesar]

I see Adel ( which extended to erigaavo, canfaar in the north and harar etc)

I see Dewaro which is Jaarso

I see Ifat which is Dir

And Bale which was Dir

but what was the rest of Somalia doing at that time

I see a vast nothingness, I mean I know Adel used to run the entire Somalia but still

Julius would u exchange the afar region in djbouti for issa land in ethiopa except dire dawa remains with ethiopa ?

[Caesar]

Canfar have dir ancestry id rather have a greater awdal , but if I had to I wouldn't mind giving them up for harowo and beyond, and there is no except dire dawa that's one of our Crown Jewels we will never give it up

[SecretAgent]

Dire dawa its oromo majority and federal city not part of somali region let the djbouti afars join their afar ethiopans

[Caesar]

Dire dawa its oromo majority and federal city not part of somali region let the djbouti afars join their afar ethiopans

Again , the Ethiopians class gurgura as Oromo as well other dir clans as 'oromo' due to their bi lingual ties , dire dawa is mine what people write on a peice of paper doesn't change the reality , idgaf about Afars , a united strong adel ruling everyone just like in the past , u mad

[Caesar]

During this specific time why was Somalia so empty lool at the map I rest my case , madaxweyne are the historic rulers of Somalia

[James Dahl]

The Ajuuraan ruled most of the south from about 1420 until 1680 or so, Adal had hegemony over most of the north, probably including Bari, though Adal did not directly rule the north, there were lots of powerful Garaads and small Sultanates who ruled independently or semi-independently.
