My ancestors have failed me
Pretty much all Somali clans have had some form of expansions over the course of centuries but my bum heads of an ancestor
didnt bother to expand beyond Western Bari and into say NFD or Ogaden
I could've had a dual nationality like my fellow Daroods heck Ogaden got three countries available for them to claim

Re: My ancestors have failed me
most of you are farmers, farmers are tied to the land, and unless they develop an advanced millitary , will always be victims
of nomads.
IF you want to travel far, leave your cattle and hop on camels..
The problem is once you get camel fever, you dont go back.
being settled farmers, you have a lead over the rest of somalis,'
you just need to be more aggressive.

Re: My ancestors have failed me

I know that Isaaq seafearers exist we border coastal HY
Re: My ancestors have failed me
Only Warsangelis who fish are the ones in laas qoray. The rest are your typical nomads.
Same with MJ and some Isaaq communities who fish.
We need more fishermen and less nomads tbh. Longest coast in the continent and we don't even make use of it

Re: My ancestors have failed me
didnt they ship your sultan off to th seychelles or something?
what with the love?
whats to love about those evil bastards.
They used the colonial manual on us,
divide and conquer.
When darood had power, they opposed them, when isaaq were on top, they smacked them down again.

I think you have a misconception Shire wasnt the acting Garaad and he damn sure as hell had no say in the affairs of other Subclansgurey25 wrote:didnt they ship your sultan off to th seychelles or something?

He ruled over his own not other Warsans
Re: My ancestors have failed me
The sultan of reer Garaad has always been seen as the leader of Warsangelis.

He is probably pro British rule since they were gaalo. I'm pretty sure that he has said in the past that he is an atheist.gurey25 wrote:didnt they ship your sultan off to th seychelles or something?

He ruled over his own not other Warsans
Even when he assumed leadership he had opposition
Im no historian and even im aware of that
Re: My ancestors have failed me
Most Warsangelis came under his rule. Small pockets of resistance might've existed but they were largely insignificant.Batwing wrote:Did you forget that Shire was fightibg for the throne from his Father who was the acting Garaad back thenRaganimo wrote:The sultan of reer Garaad has always been seen as the leader of Warsangelis.

Re: My ancestors have failed me
