Ladies and Gentlemen, I propose to you "The Somali Question".

How is it that a nation with 1 ethnicity 1 culture 1 religion could be so divided throughout most of it's national history? But what is the sole reason keeping them apart? and the failure to neutralize that problem.

Before the advent of colonialism, Somalis as an ethnicity on the Horn of Africa haven’t unionized into one state, but had their own sultan kingdoms, 5 of them. At that time, was the most civil I believe somalis have been, through the Somali justice system at the time, the Xeer law.

The islamist counter argument of "why divide the Muslim nations?" But, we see Muslim countries divided all the time and why haven’t Somali people all within their own kingdoms at that point when Islam is the 1 religion they all follow if they were 1 ethnicity, 1 deen, 1 culture?

If Somali people of the past had their own nation states they’ve already foreseen what would happen if you add 1 plus 1 element in the same country.

No man at that time would give up power without being forced. In most nations history there was a strongman who united a divided nation and forced many kingdoms into a union. Somalis never had the opportunity to reach that stage before colonialism arrived and divided us further. We also lacked formal education to not think in qabiil lenses.

We unionize when we are all attacked (Ethiopia, British, Italians, Portuguese) and we then carry on our merry way.
