Battle of Barawa happened before Ahmed Gurre fought in the north, Somalia would not exist without the Barawa people, Prove me wrong.

I have been thinking about this allot lately but in historic texts, the word Barawa comes way before the word Somali.

without the barawa defending the southern coast, slavery and christianity would have come to somalia like it did in west africa. and without islam we would have turned out or into the Oromo. its a real shame what happened to the barawa in the 1990s, we should be appreciative of them and stop calling them non-somalis. they are the reason we have Sovereignty.

First of the term Cad Cad isnt correct if you want you can say Reer Barawa, which includes tribes like Reer Faqi whose roots go back to the 9th century long before the Portuguese ever reached East Africa. Barawa was already a thriving center of Islamic scholarship and trade with settlers from the interior, Arabia, Persia, and the Swahili coast and the Indian subcontinent most recently, so while some families may have arrived later during or after the Portuguese period, many Barawani lineages have lived there for centuries.

Barawa was founded by a Tuuni sufi Aw-Al, it later expanded to it's more famous role after the Tuuni Sultanate made it the capital.
