What I managed to gather from all that is “were bigger than abgaal in Hirshabelle”.
According to the first census of the Somali republic and the latest accurate census ever conducted in Somalia, the population of Hiraan is about 2/3rds that of S.dhexe. Even though Hiraan is much larger b, abgaal S.dhexe is very densely populated with a continuous ring of farms and animal enclosure straddling from Mogadishu and Balcad all the way up to Xarardheere in Mudug.View attachment 243673
According to the 2014 UN population estimate however, Hiraan and S.Dhexe are similar in population.View attachment 243675
The 2014 estimate is a much less accurate representation of population than the 1975 population census, but for argument sake lets say the two gobols are equal in population.
Since most Reer HS abgaal live in S.dhexe (excluding the abgaal of Jalalaqsi district including Xalfooley) and most Hawadle live in Hiran (excluding the few families in western Jowhar and burane), we can conclude the larger clan would be whichever one has a larger share in their respective gobol.
Let’s look at the clans with established deegan in each gobol and compare the two, What we know is that S.dhexe is settled by
1)Abgaal
2)Shidle
3)Gaaljecel
4)moobleen
And Hiraan is settled by
1)Hawadle
2)Gaaljecel
3)Jajeele
4)Makane
5)Baadicade
6)Udejeen
7)Cayr
8)Reer shabelle
9)Surre dir
10)Reer aw hassan
With all these clans having towns/villages which come under Hiraan.
Now let’s look at the individual districts. Hiraan has 5 districts. The DC in each district hails from:
1)Beledweyne district: DC=Gaaljecel
2)Buuloburte district: DC=Hawadle
3)Jalalaqsi district: DC=Hawadle
4)Mataban district:DC=Habargidir
5)Maxaas district DC=Hawadle
Now In S.Dhexe;
1)Balcad district: DC=Mataan Cabdulle AB
2)Jowhar district: DC=Shidle (although the mayor of Jowhar town is moobleen)
3)Mahadaay district: DC=Agoonyar (waliba my jufo siyeeda dhab Celi agoonyar) AB
4)Warshiiq districts: DC=Celi Cumar AB
5)Cadale district: DC= Harti Abgaal
6)Aadan yabaal district:DC= Harti Abgaal
7)Run nigrood district: DC= Wacbudhan Abgaal
In total in Hirshabelle Hawadle have 3/12 districts while Abgaal have 6/12 districts. Do you think we achieved this through bariyo?
It all comes down to the single fact that Middle shabelle is mine and Hiraan is not yours

Hiiraan had 5 districts when Middle shabelle had 4 and they r Jowhar, Balcad, adan Yabaal and another one not sure now. out of sudden they got extra 3 in 1990 when XL and HG USC get closer. Buuloburde was freed in November 1990 and Xamar got freed on 26 january 1991! Siyaad barre started distributing Degmo left and right for Abgaal so Abgaal won't join the war. its the same thing Farmaajo did for you bc of this useless Caasimad if this Caasimad was moved to Galkacyo we will have the upper hand on Abgaal in Hirshabelle but we r sidelined by every govt to appease the Abgaal in Xamar. except from the farming Madow dominated villages nothing there in the coastal side of Abgaal its a ghost area. Govt is controlled by Abgaal all these surveys are fake. you Have Baladweyne the biggest South central city and comparing it to the little towns of Middle shabelle kkkkk
another Fact that there is no big abgaals in Middle shabelle is that it has 9 amisom bases and 4500 amisom troops while Hiiraan has 4 amisom bases and 2000 Djibouti amisom and few hundredss of Ethiopians. you had amisom bases between them 15 km like Ceelbaraf and mahaday before Al Shabaab recepture ceelbaraf. i will share you all the links of every abgaal villages with amisom troops. in Jowhar you have Amisom protecting madaxtooyada Hirshabelle guudlaawe cant stay one night without Amisom but in Baladweyne amisom are based 6km from the town in Ceeljaale. if we had amisom in lamagalaay Al Shabaab will not be able to attack it bc they r able to infiltrate in our soldiers some times Dhiboutians go there for work and went back to their base
why "Qawmiyada" abgaal has 9 amisom bases in 120 km?
the empty quarters of Abgaal side i see why claiming Madow villages
