Somalia is an Italian name. Somaliland is an English name. Neither group was smart enough to name themselves with an authentic Somali name.

Somalia Italiana and British Somaliland, literally are the most similar names of all time.

Those of you arguing over this are actually lost people subhanallah.

Somaliland in Italian is Somalia.

The Italians named their colony Somalia Italiana, which means Italian Somaliland.
the proper af somali name is soomaal. we call people from nijeeriiya nijeriyaan we dont call them nijeeri. itoobiya itoobiyan malaysiya malaysiyaan etc. gramnatically we call our selves soomaali not soomaaliyaan. so soomaaliya is inherently foreign. so the real name is soomaal and denonym soomaali.

Unfortunately, Somalia is not independent and is colonized by more nations today then they were during the colonial times!

Happy independence day to the ladies of Somalia
