Ethiopia's population in 2025 is about 135 million

Numbers mean nothing and ethopia has shown tht 😂 they needed soo many countries to help them in 77. Somalis always beat them 1 to 1 when they dont have 100 allies helping them. Todays no different.

It’s always been that way , even in the medieval and early modern periods. Ethiopia fielded massive armies but still faced defeats when going up against smaller, better-organized Somali forces

Take the Battle of Shimbre Kure: Ahmed Gurey led just 15,000 troops and routed an Ethiopian army reportedly over 200,000 strong. That wasn’t just about numbers , it was strategy, coordination, and superior mobility.

Same logic applies today. Numbers alone don’t win conflicts , capability, cohesion, and resources do. That’s why you see countries like China surpassing nations like India in most metrics despite similar population sizes. It’s quality over quantity every time.

So the focus shouldn’t be on inflating population size, but on improving the socio-economic metrics of Somalis , like education, income levels, healthcare, and infrastructure. A smaller, more productive population with strong human capital is far more valuable than large numbers with limited opportunity

When Siad Barre's advisor called Galbeed “the umbilical cord of Somalia,” he wasn’t exaggerating. The region has always been culturally central , a vital lifeline from which Somalia drew identity, economic sustenance, historical continuity, and cultural vitality.
look at somali poetry. galbeed was like its home. the guba series of poems, halacdheere and sayid maxameds poetry.
gotta post this. what an absolute masterpiece.
