The whites truly blessed my reer abti :banderas:
I was simply under the protection of the greatest white empire to ever exist never to be colonized or settled :pachah1: :mjdontkno:



I appreciate and admire the British/Anglo civilization.They taught us many good values and protected us from Menelik and helped us in many ways

All in together now… Koonbaya my lord Koonbaya, Koonbaya my lord Koonbaya, Oooo lord Koonbaya.
 
Somalias colonisation came after the airplane was invented. Up until the mass technology innovation jump in the early 20th century, Somalis we’re giving a good fight.

They had guns, we had guns. They had cannons, we had cannons. They had boats and we had boats.

However, when planes became a thing. No Somali entity had either the money or the know how to have a plane or even use one if it were available to them.

Let alone other innovations such as machine guns, tanks and chemical weapons such as poison gas. The war would’ve been more brutal if we continued to fight.

NB: Ethiopia are snakes. Colonisation was all about turning non-Christian African countries Christian and taking their resources. The church still had some sway and colonising under the pretext of religion was the main reason. Ethiopia got spared because they were Christian and even took part in settling scores.

Ethiopia’s “freedom” came at the cost of the colonisation of their “African brethren” and Africans call them the “mother of Africa”.
Xabeshis are the biggest snakes of Africa. Either way their finally getting their karma now because they are at the brink of civil war.
 
I don’t think so because Ethiopia’s economy is booming. It’s going to be the next China since Chinese labour is becoming more expensive.
Naah even a small civil war sets a country back decades.

The Tigray war has nerfed the Ethiopian economy.It will take them 5 years minimum (if all hostilities instantly cease) for them to return to their 2020 level of development.Let alone dream about becoming the next china.
 
Niyahow, don't exaggerate and act like they were just pastoral nomads fighting with sticks. Somalis in the early modern era were familiar with stone fort building in both Koonfur and Woqooyi whether through indigenous masons or imported Arab and Indian ones and had gunpowder weapons like rifles and cannons. They even had sizable Dhow ships they could use to travel to places like Yemen, the the Persian Gulf, India and Zanzibar as well as colonize along their own shores. The British even had to actively stop Somalis from importing arms from Arabia via their own Dhows when the Sayyid was around:

Until the gaalo started employing things like airplanes that were beyond Somalis at the time they were routinely losing battles to groups like the Darawiish. They had heavier artillery and numbers but the Somalis were more than capable of causing them a lot of trouble which is why the gaalo often preferred protectorate deals over head-on and continued conflict.
Forts were the downfall of darawish :mjcry:.

The idea that they were some invincible force that never got whooped by cadaans is a fantasy. They did win some impressive victories here and there, though:


And keep in mind that the level of technology the Xabashis had during this battle was pretty much no different from the level of tech possessed by Somali sultanates.

Ethiopians fought Italy. But they were supported by European powers because of their Christian history. They survived colonization because of Abysinnia's prevalence in the Bible.

My ancestors were to Islamist and thought the British building anything was considered missionary gaalo work.The only good thing the British brought were their strategies for governing this entire region which modern SL continues to use till today.

Somaliland Camel Corps was essentially a force meant to keep peace between the tribes and bring the tribal criminals who would usually be protected by their clan to justice in Hargeisa.

Somalis in SL regardless of clan were savages that constantly murdered each other for little reason.The Brits brought civilization to these savages imo
