In the wake of systemic collapse and disintegration, it is clear that we reimagine and reconstitute the very foundations of the Republic. To usher in a new era, a comprehensive rebranding of the state must be undertaken a symbolic and structural rebirth of the Somali nation.
First and foremost, the national army, long associated with grievous atrocities, particularly in Woqooyi, must undergo a transformation both in name and in ethos. The Somali National Army SNA should henceforth be reconstituted as the Somali Defence Forces (SDF), a title that better reflects a modern, disciplined force committed to the protection of all citizens, rather than one stained by historical injustices.
Equally significant is the need to revisit the national flag. While symbols hold deep historical meaning, they must evolve with the times. A thoughtful modification if not an outright redesign of the flag is warranted to signify a decisive break from the past and the dawn of a new national consciousness.
The drafting of a robust, inclusive, and forward looking constitution is essential one that is not merely a legal document but a social covenant that reflects the aspirations of all Somalis. This constitution must address the structural weaknesses that have plagued the state, and provide a clear framework for governance, rights, and national unity.
Furthermore, the question of the capital must not be immune to re evaluation. A new capital city, purpose built and symbolically neutral, could serve as the geographical and political centre of a reborn republic a fresh start unburdened by historical baggage.
In pursuit of genuine federalism, the current fragmented system must be rationalised. A more cohesive model would consist of three federal states:
This restructuring, though bold, is necessary. It streamlines governance, strengthens unity, and reflects the socio-political realities on the ground.
Now is not the time for half measures or nostalgic clinging to broken systems. We must think beyond convention beyond the worn paradigms that have failed us and dare to imagine a Somali Republic reborn: principled, purposeful, and prepared for the challenges of the modern world. And last but not least we should reclaim socottra we should reclaim it and claim as china does with Taiwan also we need to call the country the Somali republic no longer Somalia.. The thing the independence seeking Somaliland claim they are not part of Somalia , Because Somalia is only italian Somalia, in order to destroy this narrative we need to call the country the Somali republic as it was back in the 1960s
i am also a fan of the monarchy in order to create cohesive nation we need to appoint a King ,we can even call our selves the Somali kingdom. we wil have a strong prime minister the king will just be symbolic but it is good for the unity of our nation.

- Somaliland, inclusive of the northern territories.
- Puntland, expanded to encompass Galguduud and the entirety of Mudug.
- A southern federal unit stretching from Hiiraan to the Kenyan border.
