Sub-Sahara Africa vs MENA

They both ain't shit.

 

[SOMALI GENERAL]

We have origins from both regions. Only right we are apart of both.:siilaanyolaugh:

They should take out "Arab" out of Arab League though.

You can't have two origins lmao

We only have one origin & that's in North Africa, since Proto-Cushites/North Africans were the cultural bearers that brought Afro-Asiatic languages and cultures to the HOA. They only happen to have heavily mixed with Sub-Saharan African women when they were travelling South.

Afro-ASIATIC right. As in the Near East.

You do know that sub saharan is a way to demean africans below the Northern region of Africa, right?

If you still ID with such a label, you're a self hater. Sub= below. It has a negative connotation.

At least saying I'm african ain't a problem, but sub saharan African. You seriously need some help!!

sub-Saharan just means below the Zahara desert and nothing more.

Language families always have this dual thing (Indo-European, Nilo-Saharan, Sino-Tibetan, Balto-Slavic, Niger-Congo... etc).

Afro-Asiatic used to be called Hamito-Semitic, but that became too politically incorrect (Hamitic hypothesis etc).

More like this.

I don't think Somalia should join either of them. We should just focus on building our country instead. Somalia is placed in a very strategic position and if we played our cards right we can come out as the winners and a powerhouse in that region. You don't have to be in a league or union in order to conduct business especially when you are important.

Afro-Asiatic is a purely linguistic geographical label. The "Afro" part refers to the descendants of Eurasians that live in Africa that speak Hamitic(Ancient Egyptian/Coptic, Cushitic & Berber) languages. Whereas, the "Asiatic" part refers to the West Eurasians that stayed in the Middle-east that speak Semitic languages.

It was previously called Hamito-Semitic.

I say Somalia either plays both sides or is not part of either like Switzerland.

Even though Chadics are extremely Sub-Saharan autosomally, they descend from Mediterraneans and North Africans paternally.

Evidence of a Northern migration also exists in Omotics.

I thought it was also called Afro-Asiatic because African hunter gathers left the continent for the Fertile Cresent and became/mutated into Middle Eastern farmers and subsequently returned to North Africa...?

IMO, it originated in Egypt.

Sahara desert*

I know it is, but you surely don't know anything besides that, huh? Its connotation?

 

[Factz]

Somalia was known as the bridge for both African Union and Arab league. If Somalia plays a role along with their strategic location. The benefits is indefinite to be adequately described.

Unfortunately, the 68 IQ race has shown 0 capacity to take advantage over its strategic position because they would've been a powerhouse by now.

Becoming a regional "Superpower" would be an exaggeration, since that would require huge manpower etc.

In an alternate reality, Somalia would likely be at a similar level in economic & military development as Oman etc. Whereas, Egypt would obviously become the regional power of MENA & East Africa just like in the current timeline.

Having the highest GDP per capita means you're the powerhouse and Somalia would easily achieve that with their abundant resources and strategic locaction.

Somalia with a population of 2.3 million had third largest army in Africa. Look at Israel. They have a smaller population than Somalia and yet they are economically and militarily superior than Egypt. It's not impossible for Somalia back then but the way things are looking right now it's highly unlikely for them to ever reach that feat.

I don't think it's that deep. It's just a geographical term. It's like saying every term that has the words sub, below and even southern in it has a bad connotation. ex. australia is nicknamed "down under". Do you believe that there is a bad connotation there?

And like I said it's called Sub-saharan because it is below the Sahara desert.

 

[wesleyy]

Majority of the posters on this thread are retarded asf.

 

[wesleyy]

What makes you think that?

Is it because I simply stated the fact that we have closer economic & cultural relations with them?

We are not close to them economically or culturally!

Morocco majority of its export are cars. the Algerians export oil and gas.

meanwhile the majority of our exports are camels and livestock



I don't know why everyone on this thread think we are friends with NA because a lot of them hate dark skins and discriminate against them.

you can see a video of the dark skin berber minorites getting discrminated in Libya/Algeria on youtube.

dude the closest people to us are eastern ethiopians
