Harar created 16th century?!?! Log off you are a damn idiot.I never said they founded harar, I said they have had presence in harar since its founding. I agree Oromos came to harar in the 16th century, because that is the time harar was founded. Despite written records claiming otherwise, harar came to existence in the 16th century according to the latest archeological studies carbon dating its oldest ruins and walls, and like you said the Oromos have existed in harar since the 16th centuryView attachment 372455
There was oromo presence in the city pre harar invasion as well, there exists a manuscript from the 16th century recovered in harar by Wagner in 1972 by the name of kitab al fara’id written in the harla language which was penned by a man by the name of abdurrahman al arasi, who was Oromo

Oromos have just as much (if not more) of a claim to harar than Somalis

Youre exaggerating but they are a big problem in SL imo, and the government protects them for political reasons, a decade ago they would put them in cages and get beaten but now since iqtiraaf is on the table suddenly they are protected

Harar's walls were built in response to the Oromo invasion. It was the only reason they haven't taken the city at the time despite them occupying the countryside around.

Actually, the Oromos could have taken over Harar anytime, but the Amir of Harar paid them handsomely so that they would not capture it which suited them well.
"Up to the city gates the country is peopled by the Gallas. This unruly race requires to be propitiated by presents of cloth; as many as 600 Tobes are annually distributed amongst them by the Amir. Lately, when the smallpox, spreading from the city, destroyed many of their number, the relations of the deceased demanded and received blood-money: they might easily capture the place, but they preserve it for their own convenience. These Gallas are tolerably brave, avoid matchlock balls by throwing themselves upon the ground when they see the flash, ride well, use the spear skilfully, and although of a proverbially bad breed, are favourably spoken of by the citizens. The Somal find no difficulty in travelling amongst them. I repeatedly heard at Zayla and at Harar that traders had visited the far West, traversing for seven months a country of pagans wearing golden bracelets, till they reached the Salt Sea, upon which Franks sail in ships".
