😂😂😂😂Get a Load of this Guy...In Kenya, They act like they own a city....have really high homicide cases, rape cases. Basically you see a Somali you hate them by nature. they are seen as terrorists and they aren't helping their case. I don't Hate Somalis, they bring a lot and are amazing people if you get to know a few but the few rotten eggs make the whole group seem rotten but they are crossing a line Immigrants shouldn't
The comment section here really makes me happy as a Somali man in America. Majority of Somalis want to be united and to live in peace in ALL of our lands. اللهم الِّف بَين قُلوبِنا May Allah reconcile our hearts (With love and understanding).
Calling the Somalis within NFD and Ogaden “diaspora” is frankly disrespectful. They didn’t suddenly become non indigenous because the British handed over their territory to colonial lapdogs
It's basically adding insult to injury when you remember that modern Somalis originated in Eastern Ethiopia when their ancestors split from the Oromo and Afar-Saho people in the classical period.😅
We Somalis under Abyssinia/Ethiopia and Kenya occupation are only Ethiopians and Kenyans for the white man 1000s on miles away maintaining these fake countries/borders
Frist of all Thank you for talking about greater Somalia 🇸🇴. Second Somali population is 39 million not 25 million, Somalia 19 million, Somali state in Ethiopia 14.3 million, Somali in Kenya 4.1 million, Djibouti 700k.... and somali diaspora is about 2-3 million
The greater Somali nationalism is always there and not becausr o some fake irrendentism idea (the Italian orgin word) as you would like to believe us. It is real and organic thing and it is something that was born out of necessity and oppression when European colonials cruelly and forcefully divided same people and community without their consents and subjucated badly. The only thing that is ever acceptable to Somali people and are willing to relent in exchange is if the still illegally occupied territories like the Ethiopian Somalia region and Kenyan region, to some extent, would respect for Somali ethnic people's basic and full citizenship rights , but not treat as and relegate to third citizenship rate , outright aliens status or worse in their own ancestral lands at best. If these neighboring countries act on good faith and civilized way of working through trade, developmental of socio-economic and regional integration and peaceful co-existence then that would be fine. Unfortunately, they are not even pretending to do it albeit Somalia's willing to go an extra mile to cooperate with everything. As matter of fact , they want to do the opposite by trying to occupy and annex even more lands from Somalia like the behavior of current Ethiopian regime shows. They are this doing action on the basis of nonexistent historical claims and fairlytales of own old irredentism and expansionist theory over the whole Somali peninsula.

As a Somali from northern region ( Somaliland ) we won’t break up with Somalia 🇸🇴 even the criteria aren’t strong enough for a self determination since we share the Same values , language , culture and history with our southerners Somalis . Ethiopia in the other hand will split to pieces and sink cause there are so many differences between the communities living there . Ethiopia will not have an inch of our sea or sands , it is time for the diaspora to unify and return to build a stronger Somalia 🇸🇴.
You clearly don't know our history , when it comes to outside enemy Ethiopians unite like no other country. Current problem is about a power grab. And by the way we didn't even know Somaliland existed until last year😂

@@Yusabihh it no such territory in Ethiopia called the the land of Ethiopia. in the derg era they had different name called harerge and now it is called Somali after derg we based on ethnicities that live there. it's no stranger for Ethiopia because Ethiopia is a multi ethnic country. countries can be multi-ethnic group. get cultured look at powerful countries like the US, China, Russia they're multi ethnic countries. the idea of greater Somalia is an Italian project and resembles the Zionist movement. the exact same sh*t you are spewing can be claimed by Israelis, Italians, Persians, Indians etc. by your logic south Africa belongs to white and Indian people as well since there are many white and Indian people are living there. you cannot claim a land based on a snippet historical event that changed the demography of that land. if ya'll had an ounce of intelligence ya'll would build your country and make friendlier relations with your neighbors. which makes room for growth, love between the people and corporation for generations to come. instead y'all started wars for absolutely no reason and planted hatred in the region. it's not like ethnic Somalis were getting persecuted before ya'll started insurgency in both Kenya and Ethiopia. the Arabs played ya'll. Imagine if Somali leaders approached it with cooperation, those borders wouldn't even matter Somalis would've been able to enjoy three countries and what they have to offer. like how UK and EU works. and Somalia would be strong country in both Economy and military. instead your unwise leaders turn the horn into a warzone. your leaders preferred to have a cast system where Somalia is on top of the pyramid instead of working and growing together. imagine if Somalia worked with Ethiopia and Kenya. in the 60 and 70s. Ethiopia, Kenyans and Somalia we would've had strong military maybe countries with nukes because the emperor of Ethiopia had connections with the west and best economic hub since we are closer to the red sea. and we had the population size to industrialize and grow. there was lots of potential instead we're locked in a perpetual senseless war.
@@abdiganisugal825actually,diaspora is right eg all somalis don't have a Kenyan nationality or Ethiopian or Djibouti or Somalian nationality...they are either,not both...eg luhyas(a bantu tribe in Kenya) are also found in Uganda but the ones in Uganda don't have a right to be on Kenyan soil...luos and kalenjins are also found in both Kenya and Uganda...Maasai people and swahili people are found in both Kenya and Tanzania but no one has a right to be in a country that's not theirs...shared tribes are found all over Africa...but it's only somalis who think shared tribes mean they have a right to be in other people's countries

Greater Somalia is an italian project and Somalia inflicted genocide against the people of Somaliland we would never let it happen again those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it
Eventually all nations will be inhabited by their original people. Fake european borders cant make a country. In europe countries are divided by ethnicities. They have fought many wars for that. The same will happen in Africa and east africa. Many wars will be fought but there will be no colonization of people by other people. Somalia will be reunited with West Somalia and NFD. Its just a matter of time
17 million in the south only Northern Somaliland only 4.5 million Djibouti 2.5 million SSD Somali Ogaden 11 million Northern District Frontier or NFD 4.5 39.9 or about 40 million Somalis live in the Greater Somali Peninsula. Also, Somalia has one of the fastest growing populations in the world as each family consists of 10 or 5 people. I believe the Somali population is even larger than the actual estimate of you and your colleagues.

As ethnic Somali person from the Somali region under Ethiopia, this dream would have been possible if we came together. Unfortunately, we Somalis fight each other more than our enemies.
You are our blood my brother and always will be. Inshallah we as Somali people will prevail. And know that Somalia is also your ancestral land wich you are freely to come and live always. Somalis are one under the rule of Allah
The greater Somalia isnt a threat to ANYONE. it literally unifies a pastoral people. Kenya has no control over NFD and Ethiopia has LONG given up on trying to assimilate the Somali region. The french decided to just militarily occupy Djibouti. Horn of Africa would be MUCH more peaceful with this
I must note that a referendum to join somalia was held in djibouti, From wikipedia: In 1958, on the eve of neighboring Somalia's independence in 1960, a referendum was held in Djibouti to decide whether to be an independent country or to remain with France. The referendum turned out in favour of a continued association with France, partly due to a combined yes vote by the sizable Afar ethnic group and resident Europeans. There were also reports of widespread vote rigging, with the French expelling thousands of Somalis before the referendum reached the polls. The majority of those who voted no were Somalis who were strongly in favour of joining a united Somalia as had been proposed by Mahmoud Harbi, Vice President of the Government Council. Harbi died in a plane crash two years later under mysterious circumstances.

This is very informative and well researched. I would like to correct the term of Somalis abroad. Any Somalis communities, territories in the horn are living on their land. For example, Ogaden, NFD and Djibouti aren't abroad. Colonials decided to give their land to Somalia neighbors wouldn't make them diaspora. You corrected the difference between Somalia and greater Somalia.

Cuba 🇨🇺 alone sent 16,000 commandos to defend Ethiopia, while Yemen sent brigades to support Ethiopia, and Russia provided full support with both military equipment and ground forces. South Germany, Israel, and North Korea were also on their side. Thus, Somalia was fighting against all of these countries by itself. The U.S. withdrew its support from Somalia when it realized that the Somali Democratic Republic forces were taking over nearly all of Ethiopia. Consequently, Somalia was left stranded without foreign support, while Ethiopia had numerous foreign supporters. The whole world knows that Ethiopia couldn’t defeat Somalia on its own, so they sent ground forces to support Ethiopia. This means Somalia was facing naval, air, and ground foreign forces on the battlefield. This is one reason the world today is hesitant to allow Somalia to rebuild its national army; they know it could reclaim its lands from Ethiopia and Kenya. However, no matter what happens, we will one day regain our lost territories, sooner or later. Every Somali carries the memory of their missing territories in their heart and mind.
I won't even take you seriously to get in that argument that I debunked many times, but ask any historian if somalia and Ethiopia fought a war 1 on 1 somalia winning is impossible lol just because somalia had early success on Ethiopia while we were in civil war famine oil crises with tons of support from areb world soviet union china and many more only shows somalis are cowards nothing else somalis had plenty of time to invade Ethiopia they choose that time because Ethiopia was weak and divided and somalis had more support and more advantage at the beginning of the war which is why Ethiopia received the help from those countries who saw that somalis had too much advantage you don't see us bragging when we captured your capital like it's nothing in 2008 lol
It's ironic how you didn't mention that somalia had more support from other countries, including soviet union until half the war, while Ethiopia, the countries that supported us, knew Ethiopia was at a great disadvantage one because somalia was prepared for an invasion while Ethiopia was in the civil war from Eritrea tigray oromo afar Amhara everywhere the Government was fighting and most of the army was in the north not to mention the famine oil and economic crisis so somalia needed Ethiopia to be at its most weakest to have little success lol the only reason we had that much support is because our allies knew somalia was a coward with too much advantage against temporarily weak Ethiopia that fact that somalis brag about their little success is funny considering we didn't take credit when we took your capital in 2008 during tplf Government lol
@@aradat9671 First of all, you don’t need to look for excuses for your weaknesses at the time because insurgents existed on both sides. Somalia was fighting against the SNM, SSDF, USC, and SPM. Famine and drought were also present, yet we fought against you like lions. Don’t make excuses for your loss. We didn’t bow to foreign powers for rescue like your president did at that time. We were confident in our government, and without a doubt, if Addis Ababa hadn’t received foreign support, it would have been taken over by our red berets and would have become our second capital city. Secondly, don’t brag about what your troops did in Mogadishu in 2008. Civilians were slaughtering and dragging Ethiopian soldiers through the streets of Mogadishu, just as we did to Americans in 1993. Your greatest losses occurred in Mogadishu, where thousands of Ethiopian soldiers were massacred. It’s still on Al Jazeera’s archives. So don’t brag about 2008; it was a significant loss for you and your government. When it comes to the battlefield, Ethiopians know us well-don’t mistake us for Italians. Today, we are simply waiting until December 2024. If Ethiopia doesn’t pull its troops out of Somalia, they will face a similar loss.
They did not even annex, they were gifted in a deal that did not even involve the somalis. They didnt even have any real control over it until post ogaden war in the 70s where they tightened their grip and started to oppress the people there even more for expressing their desire to join somalia as they were being neglected and only kept for its resources.

bro I think you lack the understanding on how civilizations worked in the premodern era. things weren't as black and white back then. Eritrea is the Somali Land to Ethiopia. and no Ethiopia didn't annexed Somali Galbeed/Ogaden. because borders weren't drawn at that time so there was no such thing as Somalia or Ethiopia or Eretria. the proto Ethiopian kingdom Expanded to towards the south because to unite the waring tribes and face the colonialist with a stronger united front. and they did. if it wasn't the waring tribes uniting under Ethiopian banner they would've been enslaved. Italy tried to divide the tribes and the leaders but they still all united under Minilik the 2nd's army and defeated the colonizers that include Somali Galbeed/Ogaden, they have places named after their generals in Addis.
Eritrea relation with ethiopia is much different to the one between northern somalis. Eritrea is a wholly different people compared to the destructive conglomeration of ethnic groups ethiopia is . They had their own histories prior to ethiopia becoming a country with colonialism.

before the Italian colonialism there was no such thing called greater Somalia. it was the Abyssinians Christians (that includes both Eretria and Ethiopia) vs the Adal Muslim sultanate trying to Establish their culture and expand to one another. there was no Somalia nor Ethiopia or set borders at that time. the one with biggest army always draws the border.

As a Yemeni I never understood the adding of the Yemeni island of Socotra, it doesn’t share politics, history, demographics, language or anything of importance for that matter with Somalia yet is often added to greater Somalia. All love to our Somali brother though 🇾🇪 ❤️ 🇸🇴
The guy who made the video doesn't understand this topic. Somaliweyn is five regions that are the native lands of Somalis historically, not home to "diaspora", and that's what the 5-pointed star in our flags mean. These are South Somalia, North Somalia (Somaliland), Somali Region in Ethiopia, Djibouti and NFD region in Kenya. Socotra has never been part of it.
Bro we don’t consider it part of our land. We know island of socotra isn’t ours and never was and will be. All love to our Yemeni brothers and Sisters. 🇸🇴👏🇾🇪😊
The island of socotra has no Yemen roots, the people on the island are called socotri and have been apart of somali states from since antiquity and the rise of islam all the way up until the colonial period. Socotra is apart of Somalia. It is only recently with the british where it has been given to Yemen. In fact, oman and the UAE have a more stronger claim to the island after somalia then Yemen does
The dispute with socotra is about its proximity to somalia and the implications it has on maritime boundaries. We dont want the island, yemenis live there everyone knows that, its about the waters.

Brother you need to look and learn more further.and yeah ethiopia indeed annexed western somali/a and even wanted more.the colonial Britain did that also with kenya,Yemen(fun fact: somalis now in nfd also helped the maumau(financially)when then did even want to join or even be part of what is now kenya and every somali person was like that.another fun fact is that the somalis voted and wanted to be somalia(greater somalia) but we see what the colonial french did to divide when the somalis where voting when added the afars to say no and to disturb and divide.same with kenya when the 99% wanted to join and we see what the British did.even when the leaders of nfd did go to London.and the colonial British and ethiopia in 1945 is when the British handed and also the emperor at that time even asked northern somali territories.seylac/zeyla e.t.c.and keep in mind that was mid 20th century before the founding father(sayyed maxamed cabdulle xassan)said that the somalia/somali territory/lands is the western most where the last somali person lives and the eastern is the ocean within the somali peninsula(I think I did pretty bad at translating🙃)so yeah brother peace be upon you

Somalia made Ethiopia landlocked by supporting Eritrea and was denied a victory in the Ogaden by a Superpower intervention. If it can extract its oil wealth in the coming decades with Turkey’s support and continues training its military in the latter’s academies to first world standards, then there is no doubt in my mind it will result in the eventual fragmentation of Ethiopia as a state. Somalia was in disarray for decades, yet all countries across the world refuse to see it break up into pieces. If Ethiopia implodes with several more 1 million plus deaths level genocides in Tigray and Amhara, then there is NO force in the world that can keep that country together, it will go the way of Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union, while Somalia has too many commonalities that will eventually result in nationwide reconciliation when every region starts seeing billions of dollars from oil, gas, uranium profits and thousands of ships starting docking the 10+ Panamax ports dotting around the Somali coastline. Keep an eye on the Oruc Reis survey, its results will swing the pendulum of destiny towards Somalia.
Exactly. The great thing about Ethiopia is that its very foundation and framework are utterly fucked. A patchwork of ethnicities and cultures all forced into a country with little commonalities with each other. The "Ethiopian" label is nothing more than a vague regional identity with no real history behind it for the vast majority of groups in the country. What this results in is that not a single decade goes by without some major ethnic conflict for power or secession that ends up killing millions. All that means is that it allow for Somalia to recover itself while Ethiopia inevitable goes through its nth chimpout. Ethiopia couldn't even enjoy the fruits of victory that it achieved in 1977 without tearing itself apart hence why civil war still raged on throughout the 80s which really explains why Ethiopia isn't that much better than Somalia. The system in the country and the very idea of Ethiopia itself is inherently flawed. All the Somali beef you see nowadays are rooted in political issues rather than historical or cultural. As you said we are all the same so Somalis will eventually sort each others issues and reconcile.
you articulated the difference between greater somalia and the fragmented disaster called ethiopia really well. With somalia, their unification is a matter of when. We share commanlities and the future for somalia is very good with oil and its growing allies. Ethiopia on the other hand, a conglomerate of 80 something ethnic groups that all hate each other, a patchwork of independant nations with their own militaries and rebels threaded together by the authoritarian government. Ethnic clashes happen on the daily, and they still havent had the blowback from their colonial expansion aided by europe in the early 1900s. Its a ticking time bomb ready to explode, you can already see happening with the tigray war and the amount of rebel groups present.

Imagine how the three major colonial powers. of European imperialists-England, France, and Italy-brutally divided the Somali people, with no regard for their unity, culture, or history. They shattered the natural bond of a people who had lived together for centuries. But even if they divided us across different nations, our people remain united, both on land and in spirit.

Before the europeans came Somalis were fighting each other based on clans, and in the 7th century somalia was ruled by sutlanes who fought each other. Back then you had war with each other and today you still have war. First live peacefully among each other then you can talk about greater somalia.
Spot on my brother 💯 we were divided by 3 colonial Europeans powers cause they knew we were ahead of others Africans by mile , they always referred Somalis as having more IQ than others Africans .
*Having your nation split 4 ways isn't irridentism if you want to lift the occupation of your land* Eastern Germany was still considered germany even when it was split from Germany, no different to north and south korea The right to free The somali regions under occupation by pro colonial nations shouldn't be considered irridentist since they're simply liberating occupied land
Was Austria considered German tho? what about Czechoslovakia? and Poland?? It's true that all these nations had a significant amount of their population as ethnically German. So tell me, does this justify the German invasion of these countries? Honestly tho, the whole concept of unifying all people with the same ethnic identification under one nation is the very definition of irredentism, according to the video at least, and to say that the dream of greater somalia is not is dishonest.

Austria was always a separate nation of its own Whether ethnic germans in Austria wished to join greater Germany then it should be the right of the people to decide But somalis have always been 1 nation Colonial borders drawn by invaders and occupiers should not be taken seriously, especially since most of the somali population in those borders have only been occupied very recently

I hereby declare My life and that of my descendants will be dedicated to the pursuit of Greater Somalia. Greater Somalia is a concept that lives in every Somali, regardless of where they are born.
@@TacticalRuse that's not what I meant. Being ethiopian saved Somalis from civil war. Don't be naive. Somalilanders also want secession. And even if ogaden departed indent think then they will unite with somalia.
We deeply held this idea within our consciousness as Somalis, and although it may not happen in my life I have no doubt that the greater Somalai United One territory is not a dream really that will be conceived. It will heppan insha Allah.
To be honest, Greater Somalia does exist as we speak. The land mass referred to as Greater Somalia is joined together and all the Somalis living in that region are in contact and function as one ethnicity, “Somalis”. Therefore, the divisions on world map is no more than psychological and political division. Greater Somalia does exist in practice and will always remain to exist. Labelling it officially on a map is another story.
no it does not . not every country has the money to put up border walls so people in these areas move freely across porous borders it does not mean they are united and cross-border communities means people come together to make life easier not they are "UNITED" by a "POLITICAL AWAKENING " to achieve a dream
@@be-liever You sound hurt, ethiopia is a patchwork of ethnicities that hate each other. theres ethnic conflict every other year.

The rest of the history is abyssinia that was amhara. Just look at the tigray war, the fano rebellion that just took over the third town. Dream
Somali unity is bound to happen somali unity is strong and with the growing investment into the country if there is political rest the somali people will join and unite together ethiopia itself is bound to collapse it has always been on the virge of a full split and that will soon happen somalia has tried peace with them but clearly with the new found conflict involving the sea and ports and somalias unity with ethiopia i predict within the next decade ethiopia either losing its land to militias or collaspsing as whole and possible seaing the western somali region becoming either a somaliland if somalia dont fix their or joining with somalia if somalia if finally ok but SOON DIRE DAWA WILL BE PART OF THE GREAT SOMALI STATE

Now, groups like Fano and OLA are pushing for further division in Ethiopia, while Somalia only faces challenges from Al Kilaab
The term ‘Somalia’ is fairly new. Compared to our grandfather’s philosophy of Somali weyn(Greater Somali).

Me neither 😅
The greater Somali nationalism is always there and not becausr o some fake irrendentism idea (the Italian orgin word) as you would like to believe us. It is real and organic thing and it is something that was born out of necessity and oppression when European colonials cruelly and forcefully divided same people and community without their consents and subjucated badly. The only thing that is ever acceptable to Somali people and are willing to relent in exchange is if the still illegally occupied territories like the Ethiopian Somalia region and Kenyan region, to some extent, would respect for Somali ethnic people's basic and full citizenship rights , but not treat as and relegate to third citizenship rate , outright aliens status or worse in their own ancestral lands at best. If these neighboring countries act on good faith and civilized way of working through trade, developmental of socio-economic and regional integration and peaceful co-existence then that would be fine. Unfortunately, they are not even pretending to do it albeit Somalia's willing to go an extra mile to cooperate with everything. As matter of fact , they want to do the opposite by trying to occupy and annex even more lands from Somalia like the behavior of current Ethiopian regime shows. They are this doing action on the basis of nonexistent historical claims and fairlytales of own old irredentism and expansionist theory over the whole Somali peninsula.

I must note that a referendum to join somalia was held in djibouti,
From wikipedia:
In 1958, on the eve of neighboring Somalia's independence in 1960, a referendum was held in Djibouti to decide whether to be an independent country or to remain with France. The referendum turned out in favour of a continued association with France, partly due to a combined yes vote by the sizable Afar ethnic group and resident Europeans. There were also reports of widespread vote rigging, with the French expelling thousands of Somalis before the referendum reached the polls. The majority of those who voted no were Somalis who were strongly in favour of joining a united Somalia as had been proposed by Mahmoud Harbi, Vice President of the Government Council. Harbi died in a plane crash two years later under mysterious circumstances.

Cuba 🇨🇺 alone sent 16,000 commandos to defend Ethiopia, while Yemen sent brigades to support Ethiopia, and Russia provided full support with both military equipment and ground forces. South Germany, Israel, and North Korea were also on their side. Thus, Somalia was fighting against all of these countries by itself. The U.S. withdrew its support from Somalia when it realized that the Somali Democratic Republic forces were taking over nearly all of Ethiopia. Consequently, Somalia was left stranded without foreign support, while Ethiopia had numerous foreign supporters. The whole world knows that Ethiopia couldn’t defeat Somalia on its own, so they sent ground forces to support Ethiopia. This means Somalia was facing naval, air, and ground foreign forces on the battlefield. This is one reason the world today is hesitant to allow Somalia to rebuild its national army; they know it could reclaim its lands from Ethiopia and Kenya. However, no matter what happens, we will one day regain our lost territories, sooner or later. Every Somali carries the memory of their missing territories in their heart and mind.
It’s nice that every individual has the inherent right to believe in their own dreams and alternate realities🤔
This primitive mindset of capturing land is the reason Somalia is in so much chaos
I won't even take you seriously to get in that argument that I debunked many times, but ask any historian if somalia and Ethiopia fought a war 1 on 1 somalia winning is impossible lol just because somalia had early success on Ethiopia while we were in civil war famine oil crises with tons of support from areb world soviet union china and many more only shows somalis are cowards nothing else somalis had plenty of time to invade Ethiopia they choose that time because Ethiopia was weak and divided and somalis had more support and more advantage at the beginning of the war which is why Ethiopia received the help from those countries who saw that somalis had too much advantage you don't see us bragging when we captured your capital like it's nothing in 2008 lol
It's ironic how you didn't mention that somalia had more support from other countries, including soviet union until half the war, while Ethiopia, the countries that supported us, knew Ethiopia was at a great disadvantage one because somalia was prepared for an invasion while Ethiopia was in the civil war from Eritrea tigray oromo afar Amhara everywhere the Government was fighting and most of the army was in the north not to mention the famine oil and economic crisis so somalia needed Ethiopia to be at its most weakest to have little success lol the only reason we had that much support is because our allies knew somalia was a coward with too much advantage against temporarily weak Ethiopia that fact that somalis brag about their little success is funny considering we didn't take credit when we took your capital in 2008 during tplf Government lol
@@aradat9671 First of all, you don’t need to look for excuses for your weaknesses at the time because insurgents existed on both sides. Somalia was fighting against the SNM, SSDF, USC, and SPM. Famine and drought were also present, yet we fought against you like lions. Don’t make excuses for your loss. We didn’t bow to foreign powers for rescue like your president did at that time. We were confident in our government, and without a doubt, if Addis Ababa hadn’t received foreign support, it would have been taken over by our red berets and would have become our second capital city.
Secondly, don’t brag about what your troops did in Mogadishu in 2008. Civilians were slaughtering and dragging Ethiopian soldiers through the streets of Mogadishu, just as we did to Americans in 1993. Your greatest losses occurred in Mogadishu, where thousands of Ethiopian soldiers were massacred. It’s still on Al Jazeera’s archives. So don’t brag about 2008; it was a significant loss for you and your government. When it comes to the battlefield, Ethiopians know us well-don’t mistake us for Italians. Today, we are simply waiting until December 2024. If Ethiopia doesn’t pull its troops out of Somalia, they will face a similar loss.
Ethiopia inv/ded and annexed Somali Galbeed/Ogaden during the 19th like they did with Eritrea in 1962
Good to see you Eritrean post
They did not even annex, they were gifted in a deal that did not even involve the somalis. They didnt even have any real control over it until post ogaden war in the 70s where they tightened their grip and started to oppress the people there even more for expressing their desire to join somalia as they were being neglected and only kept for its resources.
bro I think you lack the understanding on how civilizations worked in the premodern era. things weren't as black and white back then.
Eritrea is the Somali Land to Ethiopia. and no Ethiopia didn't annexed Somali Galbeed/Ogaden. because borders weren't drawn at that time so there was no such thing as Somalia or Ethiopia or Eretria. the proto Ethiopian kingdom Expanded to towards the south because to unite the waring tribes and face the colonialist with a stronger united front. and they did.
if it wasn't the waring tribes uniting under Ethiopian banner they would've been enslaved. Italy tried to divide the tribes and the leaders but they still all united under Minilik the 2nd's army and defeated the colonizers that include Somali Galbeed/Ogaden, they have places named after their generals in Addis.
what type of historical revisionist b.s. are you pushing? Lets dismantle your confused view.

before the Italian colonialism there was no such thing called greater Somalia. it was the Abyssinians Christians (that includes both Eretria and Ethiopia) vs the Adal Muslim sultanate trying to Establish their culture and expand to one another.
there was no Somalia nor Ethiopia or set borders at that time. the one with biggest army always draws the border.
I think you misunderstood my statement. I was talking about “the word” greater Somalia. Yes, before Ethiopia and Somalia were not existed at the time of Adal Sultanate and Abyssinia, but I was talking about the word.

It's not Ogaden, it's Western Somalia. And it's not Somali majority it's Somali territory that they tried to depopulate of Somalis and take the land of from various governments with Amharas in selasie days and with oromos in Abiy days. You need to do more research on this.
Historically its reffered to as the Ogaden which is why he used that term, more applicable term that is non qabil orientated is Somali Galbeed. He has done good research as a foreigner

As a Yemeni I never understood the adding of the Yemeni island of Socotra, it doesn’t share politics, history, demographics, language or anything of importance for that matter with Somalia yet is often added to greater Somalia. All love to our Somali brother though 🇾🇪 ❤️ 🇸🇴
No Somali consider it Somali land the guy in the video is wrong
The guy who made the video doesn't understand this topic. Somaliweyn is five regions that are the native lands of Somalis historically, not home to "diaspora", and that's what the 5-pointed star in our flags mean. These are South Somalia, North Somalia (Somaliland), Somali Region in Ethiopia, Djibouti and NFD region in Kenya. Socotra has never been part of it.
Bro we don’t consider it part of our land. We know island of socotra isn’t ours and never was and will be. All love to our Yemeni brothers and Sisters. 🇸🇴👏🇾🇪😊
The island of socotra has no Yemen roots, the people on the island are called socotri and have been apart of somali states from since antiquity and the rise of islam all the way up until the colonial period. Socotra is apart of Somalia. It is only recently with the british where it has been given to Yemen. In fact, oman and the UAE have a more stronger claim to the island after somalia then Yemen does
The dispute with socotra is about its proximity to somalia and the implications it has on maritime boundaries.
We dont want the island, yemenis live there everyone knows that, its about the waters.
I support GREATER SOMALIA🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴 cuz if you learn/know their history you will know why.only if you hate and don't want them to have their own think and now or the past we seen how they where divided even when they come together and wanted to united we se how the British&france did(giving the somali territories/lands to others)I hope them united&successfull future as they can for their abundance resources
Xxxx
bro I think you lack the understanding on how civilizations worked in the premodern era. things weren't as black and white back then.
Ethiopia didn't annex Somali Galbeed/Ogaden. because borders weren't drawn at that time so there was no such thing as Somalia or Ethiopia or Eretria. the proto Ethiopian kingdom Expanded to towards the south because to unite the waring tribes and face the colonialist with a stronger united front. and they did.
if it wasn't the waring tribes uniting under Ethiopian banner they would've been enslaved. Italy tried to divide the tribes and the leaders but they still all united under Minilik the 2nd's army and defeated the colonizers that include Somali Galbeed/Ogaden, they have places named after their generals in Addis.
Brother you need to look and learn more further.and yeah ethiopia indeed annexed western somali/a and even wanted more.the colonial Britain did that also with kenya,Yemen(fun fact: somalis now in nfd also helped the maumau(financially)when then did even want to join or even be part of what is now kenya and every somali person was like that.another fun fact is that the somalis voted and wanted to be somalia(greater somalia) but we see what the colonial french did to divide when the somalis where voting when added the afars to say no and to disturb and divide.same with kenya when the 99% wanted to join and we see what the British did.even when the leaders of nfd did go to London.and the colonial British and ethiopia in 1945 is when the British handed and also the emperor at that time even asked northern somali territories.seylac/zeyla e.t.c.and keep in mind that was mid 20th century before the founding father(sayyed maxamed cabdulle xassan)said that the somalia/somali territory/lands is the western most where the last somali person lives and the eastern is the ocean within the somali peninsula(I think I did pretty bad at translating🙃)so yeah brother peace be upon you

It will happened sooner or later the colonizers curved up this land one day it will be back to its original owners
As long as you are thinking about ancient boundaries you will never see peace
Somalia made Ethiopia landlocked by supporting Eritrea and was denied a victory in the Ogaden by a Superpower intervention. If it can extract its oil wealth in the coming decades with Turkey’s support and continues training its military in the latter’s academies to first world standards, then there is no doubt in my mind it will result in the eventual fragmentation of Ethiopia as a state. Somalia was in disarray for decades, yet all countries across the world refuse to see it break up into pieces. If Ethiopia implodes with several more 1 million plus deaths level genocides in Tigray and Amhara, then there is NO force in the world that can keep that country together, it will go the way of Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union, while Somalia has too many commonalities that will eventually result in nationwide reconciliation when every region starts seeing billions of dollars from oil, gas, uranium profits and thousands of ships starting docking the 10+ Panamax ports dotting around the Somali coastline. Keep an eye on the Oruc Reis survey, its results will swing the pendulum of destiny towards Somalia.
Exactly. The great thing about Ethiopia is that its very foundation and framework are utterly fucked. A patchwork of ethnicities and cultures all forced into a country with little commonalities with each other. The "Ethiopian" label is nothing more than a vague regional identity with no real history behind it for the vast majority of groups in the country. What this results in is that not a single decade goes by without some major ethnic conflict for power or secession that ends up killing millions. All that means is that it allow for Somalia to recover itself while Ethiopia inevitable goes through its nth chimpout. Ethiopia couldn't even enjoy the fruits of victory that it achieved in 1977 without tearing itself apart hence why civil war still raged on throughout the 80s which really explains why Ethiopia isn't that much better than Somalia. The system in the country and the very idea of Ethiopia itself is inherently flawed.
All the Somali beef you see nowadays are rooted in political issues rather than historical or cultural. As you said we are all the same so Somalis will eventually sort each others issues and reconcile.
you articulated the difference between greater somalia and the fragmented disaster called ethiopia really well. With somalia, their unification is a matter of when. We share commanlities and the future for somalia is very good with oil and its growing allies.
Ethiopia on the other hand, a conglomerate of 80 something ethnic groups that all hate each other, a patchwork of independant nations with their own militaries and rebels threaded together by the authoritarian government. Ethnic clashes happen on the daily, and they still havent had the blowback from their colonial expansion aided by europe in the early 1900s. Its a ticking time bomb ready to explode, you can already see happening with the tigray war and the amount of rebel groups present.

Eastern Germany was still considered germany even when it was split from Germany, no different to north and south korea
The right to free The somali regions under occupation by pro colonial nations shouldn't be considered irridentist since they're simply liberating occupied land
Right on, labeling this greater somalia movement as irrendentism does not potray the situation well at all.
Was Austria considered German tho? what about Czechoslovakia? and Poland?? It's true that all these nations had a significant amount of their population as ethnically German. So tell me, does this justify the German invasion of these countries?
Honestly tho, the whole concept of unifying all people with the same ethnic identification under one nation is the very definition of irredentism, according to the video at least, and to say that the dream of greater somalia is not is dishonest.
Peace be with y'all
Austria was always a separate nation of its own
Whether ethnic germans in Austria wished to join greater Germany then it should be the right of the people to decide
But somalis have always been 1 nation
Colonial borders drawn by invaders and occupiers should not be taken seriously, especially since most of the somali population in those borders have only been occupied very recently

To be honest, Greater Somalia does exist as we speak. The land mass referred to as Greater Somalia is joined together and all the Somalis living in that region are in contact and function as one ethnicity, “Somalis”. Therefore, the divisions on world map is no more than psychological and political division. Greater Somalia does exist in practice and will always remain to exist.
