The most well educated and integrated Somalis in Europe are in Germany and Netherlands. The UK Somalis are the worst, Swedish Somalis are somewhere in the middle.
How do fobs in Germany dominate Somali tiktok?It is the easiest country for Somali fobs to get accepted, along with Sweden.
UK, Netherlands, France, Denmark etc. currently have a high rejection rate for people coming out of Somalia deeming it a safe country.
Only option (or the main option) for Somali fobs right now are Germany and Sweden.

That's true, Russia's student immediately got visas from Finland, most went to Sweden or become reer Sweden as I know, I could be wrong. Get shocked when I heard about this, this country was xenophob for a long time.A lot of people don't know this, but Finland has one of the oldest Somali diasporas in Europe. Lots of Somali students who were studying in Moscow, Russia in the late 1980s went to Finland to apply for asylum when the regime started collapsing. But this early community is outnumbered now by people who came later.
So Somalis were there before they were in Scandinavia (Denmark, Sweden etc.). Little known fact.
I think by the year 2030, Germany will have like 100,000 people born in Somalia living in it and it will be the biggest Somali diaspora in Europe after the UK beating Sweden.
Statistics on second and third generation are hard to get, but for the Somalia born ones it is easy to compare countries.
Serbia has yesterday enounced it will recognise Somalia Passport, and people can come their for study and Tourism providing they have a three thousand Dollar bank statement.
@Periplus
How did your parents enter Australia (when they were refugees)? And what is the general method refugee Somalis enter Australia?
Seems like a tough place to get to.
3000 is a bit too easy lol.
A relative can transfer them that much if it means they get to study in a soon to be EU nation.
There's a somali man who came to Norway in the late sixties. He might be the first somali man to come to northern Europe.A lot of people don't know this, but Finland has one of the oldest Somali diasporas in Europe.

speaking of Germany, during the 90's they took in a lot of refugees from the Balkans due to the war, but as soon as the war ended, they kicked them out, many went to the US. Either something has changed in their immigration policy or the same faith awaits Syrians, Afghans and others.
Hilarious way Belarus is retaliating against the EU.
