Belgium and The Netherlands are developed nations that share a border. How could you use it as an example to justify federalism in Somalia?
In Somalia federalism was created by foreign powers who wanted to divide our nation. We have wars between federal member states and no real development. If federalism is a succes in Somalia, then why are you still living in the west?
U actually got that back to front. Federation was created in 98, even though their was talks of it prior during the early warlord period but it usually reverted back to a unitarian structure, it was after the cairo conference with sal-balaar and hawiye pm/president that resulted in federalism, infact till this day u will find abdiqasim/hsm and many notable HAGS consider 'egypt' their mini 'hajj' spot kkkkk. It's centralism and unitarian govt that enemies want to impose on Somalia so we continue being state-less and these countries are numerous now like Turkey-Qatar and any Islamist party have this view of never seeing thru a govt for somalia so they promote centralism as they know no-one will agree to it like they didn't for 15 conferences, so their goal is to keep somalia state-less and in the 100th collapsed central conference.
The federation of Somalia was a PL project who implemented it first, you need to stop your 'psuedo history and cafe talk conspiracies' as they are not the reality, no-one wud want federalism for Somalia as it means they get along and harder to destroy as their power isnt concentrated in one place which is the objective behind ppl who want centralism for somalia, it's easier to knock off one big powerful govt and corrupt and effect the nation then it is to corrupt 5 separate regional govt and power separated.
