Lets imagine Senegal and Somalia were geographically next door to each other, who do you think would win the war?



Senegal seems to have a mighty army! it managed to invade The Gambia easily

Who would win would be based on the proxies.

Both Senegal and Somalia are dirt poor countries, who can't sustain any kind of war effort without strong international backers.

It would all depend on which side the U.S would take in all honesty.

The US and world powers would not interfere because there is little to gain for them

But don't you think Senegal can invade Somalia, or do you think the somali army can chase senegal out? both armies similar in size but senegal has a small air force

They would definitely be involved, they're propping up the current government and are dropping bombs on "al-shabab" areas.

I think if Senegal was determined they could invade somewhat deep into somalia, probably until galkayo. This is because somalis right now have horrendous morale and unity. Similar to the Iraqi's when Isis took over.

The problem is that Senegal has about 20,000 men. They could never sustain any kind of occupation, their numbers are too low.

The locals would do guerilla warfare. It would essentially be a lot of wasted time, money, and blood with no longterm gains. Just like the U.S in afghanistan, Iraq etc.

Truthfulness so often goes with ruthlessness
if it's not qabiil hebel hebel fighting on the senegalese side a somali will not fight

Actually Hg alone is enough to beat Senegal same way they defeated US army rangers in 1993 and Ethiopian invaders (2007).

Who ever is the aggressor will surely lose, war costs billions of dollars and more importantly the loss of human lives. There are so many ways to solve problems and violence is never the answer :)
