If you could make a movie about somali history, what period would you choose?

Som

Ahmed Gurays conquest of Abyssinian would make a great movie, the Ogaden war in 1977 would also be a perfect setting for a vietnam style movie

Forza Somalia!

somewhere in the medieval period, less written and oral infos about it. So it'd be easy to create any story and build upon it. Like a story about Somali sailors, or an attempt to unite Somalis.

How and why the Ajuran fell and the rise of subsequent kingdoms of Geledi, Silcis, and Hiraab that replaced it.

The forming of the SYL, and the road to Somalia's independence would also be good

And of course Sayyid Mohamed's struggle would be a beautiful subject for a movie.
It would be also cool to make a film about early somali migrants in Europe and Somalis who fought un the two world wars
 

Octavian

Hmm
