Yeah, it was worse than the Holocaust.I've heard Builgum has massacred millions of Congolese people. It was early 1800 I guess.
The british used bombing and chicken pox to kill dhulosI know about the land divisions but I was wondering more about treatment/injustices. For example, the British burned down cities in west Africa and robbed them of their treasures. They also raised up some ethnic groups to oppress others. I haven't heard of these things in Somalia so I am curious.
Italian colonial officers and aristocrats used Somalis as human bridges to cross over rivers and also fed some to alligators.
It's documented. Unfortunately, everything can't be conveniently blamed on Bantus and Oromos...No they used bantus from Kenya.

Bring your proofItalians had no interaction with Kenyans. So...there goes that...
And the people that were subjected to those horrible conditions were actually Somali, Biimaal to be exact...Those atrocities led them to rise up against the Italians but unfortunately there rebellion was crushed.
With the arrival of the Italians at the coast in 1890, Biyamaal leaders were almost in constant shir to coordinate their plans for the inevitable showdown between Italian expansion and their resistance. The Italian government always viewed them as its most determined opponent, colonial policy was geared towards dividing the Biyamaal leadership and thus divide the opposition. Remarkably the Biyamaal have presented a united front even when they were eventually defeated in 1908.Bring your proof![]()

I know what happened in the Congo and that Somalia was obviously not that bad. But how bad was it?
