Is Xamar the native land of the Hawiye like how Bosaso is the native land of the Majarteen or how Borama is the land of the Gadabuursi? Why do they control it?

Beelweynte hawiye live in Xamar and its environs and are numerically prominent in the area and make up a great force. Beesha abgaal cismaan and murusade 3 iyo 9 are the 2 original inhabitance which lay legitmate claim to Muqdisho excluding the reer xamar. Other hawiyes like the habar gedir settled in Muqdisho later on and this is the same with other hawiyes. Mash'aallah Muqdisho is a beautiful cosmopolitant historic city state which is still seen as the xarun of soomaliweeyn and seat of power, for this reason Muqdisho will always be superior to cities like Bendar casim (Boosaso) and Boorama.
