Somalia as a constitutional monarchy

[Molotoff]

What do you think about Somalia as a constitutional monarchy? Imagine it, Kingdom of Somalia, all Somalis and Somali lands united under one crown.


A country without a king is like a house without its host.

Somalia already has a king. Emir Tamim Al Thani who controls the Fgs

Kingdoms and sheikdoms are echos of the past and have no place in the future of any country.

We should have a system similar to the one in Malaysia. Where there will be a king chosen from each state every 5 years who rules. He controls the military and can get rid of the pm. But the prime minister who is democrately elected can do all the other stuff. This so all the clans can be kings and that's that.

The only issue we have is that we don't have 5 unified states.

Each region has millions of sub clans who bicker over power within their clan fiefdoms and you expect them to pick a king?

So many ways things could go wrong or taking advantage by our foreign enemies.

Nope. Only option is to wait for someone to take over and fully dominate all the other factions simultaneously. Only that way would we concede power.

International community especially the Western powers won't allow one side to win over it's their foreign policy towards Somalia

They wont like it but there are plenty of examples where they've conceded as long as the new power in charge isn't totally adversarial to their interests.

We just need to know what their goals are for the region and make a deal with them around it.

In return they'll grant us full access to their markets like they have with all their other "Allies".

That's the thing I can't understand what's their short term goal for Somalia I know long term is to fully control the red sea passage and block Chinese influence from the Horn but what do we get in return for the time being it seems like they want a weak dismembered Somalia I think they don't trust us to stay loyal

2 main goals:

1. The region has strategic importance when it comes to controlling or blocking access to their assets in the region. So many potential war theaters easily accessible from Somalia.

2. We're a threat. They're already have those uppity mid level powers of Iranians, Turks and soon Gulf Arabs. Don't even mention Argentinia and Venezuela. Last thing they want is another annoying power appearing that could take a slice from their cake. The cake in our case is Africa which is considered Europe's backyard just like Latin america is to the US.

You're right...they don't trust us after all those stunts we've pulled but if we get our shit together and force them to the table that doesn't matter.

The only other option than trusting us is having us as a potential pain in their ass they have to waste time on.

We might not be able to do much to scupper their plans in Africa or ME but we could join the propaganda war against them on the world stage or even host their rivals.

If we regain our sovereignty the worst thing they could do to us is sanction our economy but what's the use of that when it's already at the bottom.

So taking into consideration a cost/benefits view it would make sense to make a deal with us.

Not exactly at an equal partnership level but not as a lackey.

Only way that's realistically possible is if we're bulletproof in regards to unity.

Central government would be cool but a monarch would be even better.

Nationalism is a crazy drug.

Boqor Burhan is kind to laangaabs. The constitution would not be safer in anyone else's hands.
