also check out the mighty ADAL EMPIRE http://www.somaliaonline.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=6;t=006555 It was on the 13th century that came to the light, in Horn of Africa, one of the strongest Empires that existed in East Africa. Adal Empire had its origine in the city of Zeyla, situated until today in the northern region of the former Democratic Republic of Somalia. The father of that State was King Omar D. Ahmed (nicknamed Aw-Barkhadle). The king who had a long life, occupied the throne for many years. When he passed away, he left behind him many children, mainly males. Among them, the successors to the throne who inherited the kingdom. Later, Adal Empire became an Islamic Empire that expanded the religion of Islam with determination, into the entire Horn of Africa.

somalis came from oromo's?? genetics say something else The frequency of haplogroup E3b1*(xE3b1b) in Somali males is the highest observed in any populations to date, and we suggest that the Somali male population is the origin of this haplogroup. before islam the word oromo didn't even exist! Somali origins: The notion that the migration and settlement of early Muslims followers of the Prophet Muhammad on the Somali coast in the early centuries of Islam had a significant impact on the Somalis no longer enjoys much academic support. Scholars now recognize that the Arab factor--except for the Somalis' conversion to Islam--is marginal to understanding the Somali past. Evidence places the Somalis within a wide family of peoples called Eastern Cushites by modern linguists and described earlier in some instances as Hamites. From a broader cultural-linguistic perspective, the Cushite family belongs to a vast stock of languages and peoples considered Afro-Asiatic. Afro-Asiatic languages in turn include Cushitic (principally Somali, Oromo, and Afar), the Hausa language of Nigeria, and the Semitic languages of Arabic, Hebrew, and Amharic. Medieval Arabs referred to the Eastern Cushites as the Berberi. In addition to the Somalis, the Cushites include the largely nomadic Afar (Danakil), who straddle the Great Rift Valley between Ethiopia and Djibouti; the Oromo, who have played such a large role in Ethiopian history and in the 1990s constituted roughly one-half of the Ethiopian population and were also numerous in northern Kenya; the Reendille (Rendilli) of Kenya; and the Aweera (Boni) along the Lamu coast in Kenya. The Somalis belong to a subbranch of the Cushites, the Omo-Tana group, whose languages are almost mutually intelligible. The original home of the Omo-Tana group appears to have been on the Omo and Tana rivers, in an area extending from Lake Turkana in present-day northern Kenya to the Indian Ocean coast. The Somalis form a subgroup of the Omo-Tana called Sam. Having split from the main stream of Cushite peoples about Having split from the main stream of Cushite peoples about the first half of the first millennium B.C., , the proto-Sam appear to have spread to the grazing plains of northern Kenya, where protoSam communities seem to have followed the Tana River and to have reached the Indian Ocean coast well before the first century A.D. On the coast, the proto-Sam splintered further; one group (the Boni) remained on the Lamu Archipelago, and the other moved northward to populate southern Somalia. There the group's members eventually developed a mixed economy based on farming and animal husbandry, a mode of life still common in southern Somalia. Members of the proto-Sam who came to occupy the Somali Peninsula were known as the so-called Samaale, or Somaal, a clear reference to the mythical father figure of the main Somali clan-families, whose name gave rise to the term Somali. The Samaale again moved farther north in search of water and pasturelands. They swept into the vast ****** (******** ) plains, reaching the southern shore of the Red Sea by the first century A.D. German scholar Bernd Heine, who wrote in the 1970s on early Somali history, observed that the Samaale had occupied the entire Horn of Africa by approximately 100 bc - A.D. http://countrystudies.us/somalia/3.htm ------------------------------------- 2000 yrs ago in 40 AD a greek historian left records of the ancient country called ''Berberia'' there was Central Oligarchy, not Monarchy, in the ‘Berberia’ To state that there were sovereigns in the various market-towns, the text uses the Greek word ‘tyrannos’ that does not mean ‘tyrant’ as it derived in modern Western languages, but a sovereign based on an oligarchy, which was conceived as another type of political rule by the Ancient Greeks (monarchy, oligarchy and democracy being the three main types). The difference between monarchy (ruled by a king / basileus) and oligarchy (ruled by a tyrant / tyrannos) is that the king has seized larger power and rules uncontested, whereas in the case of an oligarchy the sovereign has to take into account and consult with the elders, the wealthier and the high priests. The ‘Periplus of the Red Sea’ mentions precisely in the case of the merged Yemenite kingdom Sheba and Himyar the parallel existence of King Haribael and the Mofar tyrant (chapters 16 and 24). With regard to the ‘Berberia’, we can conclude that the economic riches accumulated in Malao and Mundu contributed to the supremacy of the local sovereign, who may have risen to a level of ‘primus inter pares’ among the other ‘tyrants’ of the trade oligarchies of the country. If the division had been perpetuated, it would have been possible either for the Yemenite King Haribael to extend his Azanian colony in the area of ‘Berberia’ (that is closer to Yemen itself) or for the Axumite Abyssinian King Zoscales to expand his territory in the south of the Bab el Mandeb straits. The reason we claim the existence of an oligarchy with central power around Malao – Berbera is the fact that the local inhabitants took their destiny in their own hands, fought hard to preserve their right to sail and transport their products across the straits to Mouza in Yemen, made of their land a favorite location for Indian merchandises’ transit, and opposed foreign threats that may have come from either shores of the Red Sea.

Nuur Saeed died on 24 January from injuries he sustained following a police raid on a flat in south east London. He is the most obvious victim of what local residents are calling a “wave of harassment†of the Somali community in recent months. In the wake of the 7 July bombing attacks on London and the murder of policewoman Sharon Beshenivsky in Bradford last December, there has been a severe escalation of police harrassment of the Somali community. Since then Somalis report an increase in general abuse and verbal and physical assaults. According to Nuur’s cousin Faisa, “On 10 January the house was raided by the police, apparently with a search warrant. They say my husband ran off the second floor balcony and fell. It took hours in the hospital to get any information. On 24 January he died from those injuries. “I need a full explanation of what happened. I have never had any contact with the police, but so many people have told me of their bad experiences. So many people find themselves in a similar situation. Hopefully people acting together can find out the truth and make a difference.†In another case one woman, who didn’t want to be named, described the experience of being raided by the police. She said, “When I heard the noise my first instinct was to run and call the police. Then I realised it was the police. “They said they had a warrant, but they didn’t show us one. When they had gone, the flat looked like it had been struck by a storm. There were holes in the wall where they had used a hammer, and wiring ripped out. All our things were thrown on the floor, and the mattresses overturned.†There is a vibrant Somali community in south east London, but in recent months people talk of a climate of fear created by the police. Islow, a young Somali man, says, “The way the police behave around here is terrible. They are racist. I’ve been stopped and searched six times.They are like wild dogs, I was put in a neck hold, and was picked up and thrown to the ground.†His friend agreed, “The police suddenly appear from nowhere. The last time one of them said ‘sit down you black ******* ’ and pushed me to the ground. A lot of the time they simply tell you to move and push you.†While Metropolitan Police comissioner Ian Blair is pointing to the insitutional racism of the media, south east London shows the reality of racism by the police. Plumstead police station in the area was at the heart of the scandal around the Stephen Lawerence case. Terrifying On the night of the killing of Steven Lawerence in April 1993, witness Duwayne Brooks was mistreated there and made to feel like a suspect. Several detectives at Plumstead were identified as being part of the “institutional racism†of the Metropolitan police in the Macpherson report. More recently Patricia Coker’s son Paul died at Plumstead police station in August 2005. At a meeting last week she said, “To have someone taken away by the state in this way is terrifying. “The people at the top are simply not doing what needs to be done. A disproportionate number of those who die in these circumstances are black. Is this because they treat all people of colour as criminals?†Another case gives an insight into the atmosphere within the police. On Monday of last week policeman Warren Bell appeared at Bow Street Magistrates charged with racially aggravated public order and a public order offence. He was alleged to have made monkey noises at a 20-year old man while he was in the custody suite at Plumstead station. He was suspended last year. It is not simply a few officers overstepping the mark. Last year Tarique Ghaffur, a Metropolitan Police assistant commissioner and the man responsible for community policing, launched an attack on the Somali community. He told the Financial Times news­paper, “The Somali community, have got no established roots, no sense of citizenship, no active youth diversion.†The Justice for Nuur campaign is demanding that there is an independent inquiry into the circumstances surrounding his death and that the police officers involved are immediately suspended from duty. It also wants an immediate and independent investigation into Woolwich police’s alleged harassment of young men, especially those of the Somali community. Justice for Nuur demonstration, assemble 2pm Saturday 4 February, Plumstead police station, Plumstead High Street, London SE18 they murdered him and then set up a fake investigation team on the case that led to nothing cowards!!

somalia 4th largest importer of Brazil Apart from Saudi Arabia, Somalia also increased its imports from Brazil. The African country rose from purchases of US$ 6.5 million in February 2005 to US$ 17 million last month. The country even rose to the position of fourth largest importer of products from Brazil among the Arabs, in terms of revenues. "We exported commodities to Somalia," stated Alaby. In fact, almost the entire increase in and value of sales to the country were from sugar shipments. The ranking of main importers of Brazilian products among the Arabs in February has Saudi Arabia at the top, followed by Egypt, with US$ 68 million, the United Arab Emirates, with US$ 39 million, Somalia, and Morocco, with US$ 13.7 million. Among the countries that most increased their purchases in percentages, however, are countries that do not buy significant volumes, like Djibouti, whose purchases grew 1,187%, but reached just US$ 309,000. bilateral trade between the two countries is growing
