I mean in terms of their dialect and caadoonyinkooga aka norms?!

Also what is the historical connections between reer Hiiraan and reer Djibouti and reer woqooyi?

Thanks in Advance for sharing your knowledge

In Somaliland any where west of hargeisa is galbeed. But generally All isaaqs harti (dhulos + warsangeli) samaron and ciise are considered reer waqooyi by the rest of Somaliweyn.

Djibouti is a diferent country man they r called reer djibouti...somalia is located in the south east when your in djibouti but of course they have more in common with the adjacent north somalia

Theyuusuf, also a good portion of western Daarood, like the Bartire, Abaskuul, Garri-Koombe and sections of the Ogaadeen are considered reer waqooyi in terms of dhaqan and luuqad.

Djibouti + K5 + Awdal + Maroodi Jeex = Reer Galbeed

Togdheer + Saaxil + Sanaag + Oodweyne + Sool = Reer Waqooyi

Reer Woqoyie is are all those who speak the galbeed accent. Cisse are culturally reer woqoyie. Although they have culturally influenced quite a lot by the Cafar and Arabs.

Thus the word woqoyi describes the western regions of Somali inhabited areas, not the actual north.

for me anyone who say "gogol-xaadh" is reer waqoyi.

Generally, jigjiga, hargeysa, djibouti and buhoodle sound the same but djibouti is a progressive region...north has tribal mechanisms....its like comparing yemen to tunis.

More than 50% of Djiboutians hails from Somaliland including the issa. the political system and the invironment is different but the people are exactly the same.

Biimaal iyo ciise waa isla dhashteen isko dhaqan miyaa?

despite their somali cultural and genealogical connections, djibouti differs from waqooyi socially and politically as a result of its colonial education and geographical environment where women dominate the economical and social life...

In lebanon, egypt and djibouti they got this programme funded by the world bank where they invest in women....djibouti has allocated for these women who want to work about $5m

Sorry for the arabic links...atleast theres some pics!

Constitution allocates for women 10 mps out of 65 mps, thats the minimum number....this system exists in marroco and egypt too

Djibouti is counsidered as the first arab country where women had political role(before the independence)

Politics, djibouti has political elites or political class like pakistan, india...politics r dominates by the same old families like guuleed and geele, hasnaa bahdoun

In waqooyi its all about clans...yes these families have tribes but they r now political elites besides they dont talk about it publically

Pls watch the last video of ali khalif, from waqooyi, this man is a professor and all he talks about is rer hebel iyo reer hebel

Woqooyi tribalism!

Tribalism is our salt. No tribilism no taste in Somaliland life. but its all about socialism no harm no hard feelings.

AishaWaqooyi is from DJibouti, so she can tell us if DJibouti is regarded as part of "Waqooyi".

I remember Aisha saying, "waar kooraankii baa ka tegey quartier trois maaha, sidaas baan SNET uga maqnaa laba casho. Kooraan baanan haysan maaha"

The daughter of this Somali oday from miyiga (baadiye) was married by a guy from Djibouti. After a year in the marriage, the father of pride went to DJibouti to see his daughter and her husband. After he stays with them for awhile, he decided to head back home. He asked his son-in-law, when I come back in the future, how can I cross the border? The son-in-law responded to his father-in-law, "waar haddaad soo noqotid, gandermarieguna hooyadaa bu ku wasi maaha, policekuna aabahaa bu ku wasi maaha."

Unbelievable!

Basically, the son-in-law did not want his father-in-law to come back because every time the old man comes back, he has to come up financial resources to send him back home. So, he was basically telling him the gendermarie and police will really abuse/hurt him if he comes back.

Apparently, the reer DJibouti way of telling people that you will be hurt is "waa lagu wasi maaha" ileen tan oo kale!
