Somalis are a tiny ethnic group

[Inactive]

Unknown Chinese city of Shantou has more people than all of Somalia.

Somalis have 7 kids each. Why the small population?

 

[Grigori Rasputin]

So true! It dawned on me recently that an unknown Chinese town in the hidden corners of China has more population then our shit-hole but yet we have 9 kids to a family.

My unscientific conclusion : terrible health condition and facilities and lack of competent Doctors.

 

[AceofSom]

AbdiQanis, your not doing anything to help the population.

We didn't use to have big families. Only a few people had big families, usually farmers or businessmen who could afford to feed their big families. If you were poor you stopped having sex when your family was getting too big to manage. These days people have large families for status but can't afford to look after them and thats why we have masses of undernourished children in Somalia and low quality gang type children in the diaspora.

 

[Bahal]

But we have 6 countries

 

[Hubble]

What is the 6th country? We only have Somalia, Somaliland, Djibouti iyo DDSI and NFD?

No I think trends show that the poorer you are the more children you have. Richer people tend to limit the number of children they have.

Puntland, jubbaland, South West state, Galmudug, hiiraanland

Somalia is very harsh place, especially for nomads. Children could die of thirst and hunger if rain didn't fall. Even now people have more children because they know there's a strong likelihood of children dying very young.

Puntland, jubbaland, South West state, Galmudug, hiiraanland

Which brings in a total of nine different nationalities. Why are so divided xasbunallah

Because we are xaasid to each other and narrow-minded.

Because the stories are true. Sheekh isaaq came from carabta 1000 years ago, Ibn jabarti stole the shib shib and sang to dir from the tree 1300 years ago, Hawiye arose from the red sands of galgaduud 1100 years ago, and the dir ran from ancient egypt when euros and arabs came 2000 years ago

We're a new ethnic group to this world. We have all the right excuses to be behind

@AbdiJohnson Yeah we do. I mean we been in war for so fucking long but I don't get the point of your thread. Having a relatively small population but lots of land is a good thing. Why would we ever want to become like China? Look at how their struggling with population density. Shits so bad they have to use extreme measures like limiting people to 1 kid.

 

[Unstable]

There's twice as many Oromos as there are Somalis.

 

[Apollo]

Blame nomadism for that.

Generally nomad groups are not as numerous as (historically) agricultural people.

Mongolians vs Han Chinese for example.

 

[Morphius]

Quality over quantity. Jews are small barely 25 million but control the entire world

 

[Mugheerah]

The wars with Ethiopia are to blame.

 

[Morphius]

Quality over quantity Somalida have neither and you trying to compare the Somalis to the jews is absolutely ridiculous

Are you dumb or something?Somalis aren't anywhere near Jews that is too obvious and no one can compare them to Somalis.

I've just said that Quality > Quantity and it's true. Oromos are 5 times bigger than Tigre and they are slaves of Tigre today in Ethiopia.

The Quality of Somalis is up for debate but I would say they're doing better than many people today. Don't compare them to Japanese, Oil money Arabs, Jews and Whites but compare them to people on the same league as them.
