Gooooo sleeep!

Your somali's makeup is tooooooooooooooooo much.


lmao, this is the opposite actually, somalis look good without makeup. percentage wise less somalis wear makeup than any other african people. simply because somalis in somalia dont use makeup.

Antivirus92: Let the truth be told, the whitemen really tried for africa, even though anything with advantage must surely have a disadvantage. The problem with most african nation is poor management.

you are a sick person. i dont think whites did anything for africans or any other people. If i give you a dollar and steal ten dollars from you, does that mean you gave me or took from me. People like you only see the dollar given and not the 10 stolen.


Because of capitalism all coutries would eventually buy electricity from companies and buy cars and other services. But giving food for free while taking resources and supportin dictators who sighn off on no bid contracts is the real trillion dollar theft. Even the corporations who dont pay african taxes on the continent and take their non taxed profits overseas are criminals. These companies dont pay hundreds of billions of dollars in taxes to african nations.

Fulaman198:

So having lighter skin now equates to looking "horn" you're du mber than I thought.


I never said light skin. You know somalis come in diffrent shades. I meant the entire look is horn, light skin, straight nose, long hair etc. these features are essentially horn features, while big lips and wide nose are the majority belong to negroids, but none of the pics posted look like classic negroid features.

Antivirus92: dear hungry chimpanzee, your people invented all these things and with the white man's own put together, somalia is still a hungry, poor,war-torn country. Then ask ur dumb self whether your somalia is really progressing. These arabs will continue brain washing you guys inside the mosque and poverty will wipe you away some day! Tell any first-world arab country despite their oil? Wake up b4 it's too late!

No arab is in somalia who is brain washing us. Is only through you slave world view point that you see the world in the context of slave and master. On the contrary, Somalia is doing well and no one is dying hunger, the famine was over a year ago.

Antivirus92: it's now that i know ur problem. You're indeed brain-washed. You're a muslim and very close to north africa? You have their mentality that the term "black and white" are western invention and like the middle-easteners, they hate the western world. Btw, the pictures you posted,the people on it aren't lighter than most igbo people.

Dude, your pretty brain washed. Somalis have lineage, and wouldnt trade that for a color. We have clans that makeup the somali family. it has nothing to do with arabs and north africans. We dont like foreigners, including blacks, ethiopians, arabs, north africans.


no army came to somalia to brain wash us, rather it was us who sent armies to kenya, ethiopia to fight our wars for the past 3,000 years.

All ancient cultures value their uniqueness and their lineage and wouldnt give that up for a color that was given to them by europeans. Somalis havent had that much contact by whites to alter our thinking or for us to go by their labels.


As for the women i posted, who cares how light they are, only a brain washed person who think of that.

One day when your culture is dead, and no one speaks your language, because all your people decided to call themselves black and intermixed with others than you will understand what you have lost. This is the reason why are women and men rarely marry outsiders, its the perservation of our culture that makes us believe that we are diffrent and we have something worth protecting.

Later on in the campaign, the Adalites were struck by a catastrophe when Sultan Mansur and his brother Muhammad were captured in battle by the Solomonids. Mansur was immediately succeeded by the youngest brother of the family Jamal ad-Din II. Sultan Jamal reorganized the army into a formidable force and defeated the Solomonic armies at Bale, Yedeya and Jazja. Emperor Yeshaq I responded by gathering a large army and invaded the cities of Yedeya and Jazja but was repulsed by the soldiers of Jamal. Following this success, Jamal organized another successful attack against the Solomonic forces and inflicted heavy casualties in what was reportedly the largest Adalite army ever fielded. As a result, Yeshaq was forced to withdraw towards the Blue Nile over the next five months, while Jamal ad Din's forces pursued them and looted much gold on the way, although no engagement ensued.

After returning home, Jamal sent his brother Ahmad with the Christian battle-expert Harb Jaush to successfully attack the province of Dawaro. Despite his losses, Emperor Yeshaq was still able to continue field armies against Jamal. Sultan Jamal continued to advance further into the Abyssinian heartland. However Jamal upon hearing of Yeshaq's plan to send several large armies to attack three different areas of Adal, including the capital returned to Adal where he fought the Solomonic forces at Harjai and according to al-Maqrizi this is where the Emperor Yeshaq died in battle. The young Sultan Jamal ad-Din II at the end of his reign had outperformed his brothers and forefathers in the war arena and became the most successful ruler of Adal to date. Within a few years, however, Jamal was assassinated by either disloyal friends or cousins around 1432 or 1433, and was succeeded by his brother Badlay ibn Sa'ad ad-Din. Sultan Badlay continued the campaigns of his younger brother and began several successful expeditions against the Christian empire. He recovered the Kingdom of Bali and began preparations of a major Adalite offensive into the Ethiopian Highlands. He successfully collected funding from surrounding Muslim kingdoms as far away as the Kingdom of Mogadishu.[27] These ambitious plans however were thrown out the war chamber when King Badlay died during the invasion of Dawaro. He was succeeded by his son Muhammad ibn Badlay who sent envoys to the Sultan of Mamluk Egypt to gather support and arms in the continuing war against the Christian empire. The Adalite ruler Muhammad and the Solomonic ruler Baeda Maryam agreed to a truce and both states in the following decades saw an unprecedented period of peace and stability.

For many years, Mogadishu stood as the pre-eminent city in the بلاد البربر, Bilad-al-Barbar ("Land of the Berbers"wink, which was the medieval Arabic term for the Horn of Africa.[21][22][23]
The Sultanate of Mogadishu became the center of Islam on the East African coast, and Somali merchants established a colony in Mozambique to extract gold from the Monomopatan mines in Sofala.[24] In northern Somalia, Adal was in its early stages a small trading community established by the newly-converted Horn of Africa Muslim merchants, who were predominantly Somali according to Arab and Somali chronicles. The century between 1150 and 1250 marked a decisive turn in the role of Islam in Somali history. Following his visit to the city, the 12th century Syrian historian Yaqut al-Hamawi wrote that Mogadishu was inhabited by dark-skinned Berbers, the ancestors of the modern Somalis.[25][26] The Adal Sultanate was now a center of a commercial empire stretching from Cape Guardafui to Hadiya. The Adalites then came under the influence of the expanding Horn African Kingdom of Ifat, and prospered under its patronage. The capital of the Ifat was Zeila, situated in northern present-day Somalia, from where the Ifat army marched to conquer the ancient Kingdom of Shoa in 1270.

The Muslim and Christian communities of modern Somalia and Ethiopia enjoyed friendly relations for centuries. The conquest of Shoa ignited a rivalry for supremacy between the Christian Solomonids and the Muslim Ifatites which resulted in several devastating wars and ultimately ended in a Solomonic victory over the Kingdom of Ifat. Parts of northwestern Somalia came under the rule of the Solomonids in medieval times, especially during the reign of Amda Seyon I (r. 1314-1344). In 1403 or 1415 (under Emperor Dawit I or Emperor Yeshaq I, respectively) measures were taken against the Muslim Sultanate of Adal. The Emperor eventually captured King Sa'ad ad-Din II of the Walashma dynasty in Zeila and had him executed. The Walashma Chronicle, however, records the date as 1415, which would make the Ethiopian victor Emperor Yeshaq I. After the war, the reigning king had his minstrels compose a song praising his victory, which contains the first written record of the word "Somali". Sa'ad ad-Din II's family was subsequently given safe haven at the court of the King of Yemen, where his sons regrouped and planned their revenge on the Solomonids.


The oldest son Sabr ad-Din II build a new capital eastwards of Zeila known as Dakkar and began referring to himself as the King of Adal. He continued the war against the Solomonic Empire. Despite his army's smaller size, he was able to defeat the Solomonids at the battles of Serjan and Zikr Amhara and consequently pillaged the surrounding areas. Many similar battles were fought between the Adalites and the Solomonids with both sides achieving victory and suffering defeat but ultimately Sultan Sabr ad-Din II successfully managed to drive the Solomonic army out of Adal territory. He died a natural death and was succeeded by his brother Mansur ad-Din who invaded the capital and royal seat of the Solomonic Empire and drove Emperor Dawit II to Yedaya where according to al-Maqrizi, Sultan Mansur destroyed a Solomonic army and killed the Emperor. He then advanced to the mountains of Mokha where he encountered a 30,000 strong Solomonic army. The Adalite soldiers surrounded their enemies and for two months besieged the trapped Solomonic soldiers until a truce was declared in Mansur's favour.

Ancient Somalis domesticated the camel somewhere between the third millennium and second millennium BC from where it spread to Ancient Egypt and North Africa.[13] In the classical period, the city states of Mosylon, Opone, Malao, Sarapion, Mundus, and Tabae in Somalia developed a lucrative trade network connecting with merchants from Phoenicia, Ptolemic Egypt, Greece, Parthian Persia, Sheba, Nabataea and the Roman Empire. They used the ancient Somali maritime vessel known as the beden to transport their cargo. After the Roman conquest of the Nabataean Empire and the Roman naval presence at Aden to curb piracy, Arab merchants barred Indian merchants from trading in the free port cities of the Arabian Peninsula because of the nearby Roman presence. However, they continued to trade in the port cities of the Somali peninsula, which was free from any Roman threat or spies. The reason for barring Indian ships from entering the wealthy Arabian port cities was to protect and hide the exploitative trade practices of the Somali and Arab merchants in the extremely lucrative ancient Red Sea-Mediterranean Sea commerce. The Indian merchants for centuries brought large quantities of cinnamon from Ceylon and the Far East to Somalia and Arabia. This is said to have been one of the most remarkable secrets of the Red Sea port cities of Arabia and the Horn of Africa in their trade with the Roman and Greek world.[14] The Romans and Greeks believed the source of cinnamon to have been the Somali peninsula but in reality, the highly valued product was brought to Somalia by way of Indian ships.[15][16][17] Through Somali and Arab traders, Indian/Chinese cinnamon was also exported for far higher prices to North Africa, the Near East and Europe, which made the cinnamon trade a very profitable revenue maker, especially for the Somali merchants through whose hands the large quantities were shipped across the ancient sea and land routes.[citation needed]
[edit]

Herodotus spoke of the Macrobians, an ancient people and kingdom postulated to have been located on the Somali peninsula[10][11] during the first millennium BC. They are mentioned as being a nation of people that had mastered longevity with the average Macrobian living till the age of 120. They were said to be the "Tallest and Handsomest of all men".[12] The Persian Emperor Cambyses II upon conquering Ancient Egypt sent ambassadors to Macrobia bringing luxury gifts for the Macrobian king to entice his submission, but instead the Macrobian ruler replied with a challenge for the Persian ruler in the form of an unstrung bow, that if the Persians could manage to string, they would have the right to invade his country, but until then they should thank the gods that the Macrobians never decided to invade their empire.[12]

Antivirus92: you're very dumb and never speak any truth. Do you think ur fore-fathers would ever have left hunting and try discovering electricity?


dear monkey. If you have any idea of history, then you would know that somalis were using cannons before europeans, that northern somalia was fighting with the help of the ottoman empire the ethiopians with guns when whites were taking your people in ships as slaves with your peoples compliance.


you would also know that we were sailing and trading and that we as a people were trading on sail boats commodities that europeans had no access to for thousands of years. forcing europeans to go around the world to find INDIA because arabs/muslims would not let them go through their territory.


Electricity was only invented 200 years ago. Somalis had paper from the chinese who invented it while europeans were living in mudhuts, somalis along with the muslim world were far in advance of the west for the better part of 800 ad to late 1800's. dont let the whites who did achievemetns only 200 years ago make you think they were always ahead of the curve. But then again you are their slave so i wouldnt expect any diffrence. Much of what the west has was because of inventions from ARABS, ASIANS, ETC.

Did you know horners invented coffee, yet whites dont think about that every time they chug down a cup of coffee every morning on their way to work.

Let's forget being brainwashed,apart from "white,black" being a racist language, i don't see anything wrong with it because not every whiteman you see thay you know his ethnicity. Whites like slavs,croats,english, bavarians etc are for convinience sake called "whites" just like blacks of somalis,ethiopa etc.


wow. you have a problem that you cant even see. your arguing with 100 million people in the horn of africa who look difffrent than black people. and your made cause they chose to call themselves their ethnicity.

i am much closer to an arab muslim than a somali christian. the majority of blacks are not muslim and dont have my culture nor my look or history.


you are the ones who have been brain washed. somalis never were owned as slaves and only met whites since world war 1. we have had slaves who we called black for hundreds of years. and black is a social term. in america black means diffrent than what it means in brazil or east africa. black is a color, with no history, language.


go learn what you are and stop hiding under a color, better yet stop going around judging horners who are older than you and your black race.

Naijarican aka MsDarkskin is a lowlife African American. She said if it were not for African American, Somali would carry a bucket of water to Mogadishu. When her people were slaves Somali people had the Adal Sultanate, Ifat Sultanate, the Sultanate of Hobyo and the Ajuuraan empire, the later who traded with European countries, China, India. She does not know that Somali have never been slave. She does not know that it was 2 horner sailors, Ethiopian, who built the first black Church while her people were in shackle. She hate Somalis yet cannot let go of us. She keep insisting that Africa is the most diverse place on Earth only to say that all African are related which is oxymoron to her previous statement. She put picture of Rendille who is Cushitic group and their language is close to Maay Maay Somali but to ignorant people on that forum she say they are Nilotic only to distort fact and prove her "case" by distorting facts. She deny that Somali have 46 causcoid maternal influence not because of rape because of that would be the case like African American, Somali would have it on fathers side. That is why 87% of African American cannot trace their African root paternally. Anyway, Somali have 46 causcoid maternal influence because they traded with foreign people and built alliances by taking wife of foreigners and in some case enslave foreigners. During the Ottoman Alliemnt with Somali in north. Many Somali had Turkish or Greek wife.

When her family was on heroin during the 70's before the Crack epidemic in the 80's, Somali soldier fought in many African countries for liberation purpose.
