okeyxyz: Obviously you don't know anything about culture. You say absolutely nothing about these people besides showing us pictures. You don't tell us their value-system, mythology, history, their language and social structure, child-rearing practices, their religions, etc. Absolute Nothing!! And you ask "Who has the best culture??" WTF!!!

Why is it that whenever somebody says "culture" all we(africans??) think about is dressing-up and dancing?? Even animals dress-up and dance, so how have you differentiated yourself from animals to show that you have culture?? Mtcheww!!!

I am somali, and much of the afar and somali culture is similar.

Afar man

More pictures of Afar women. They are beautiful.

1. Afar they inhabit Somali, Ethiopia, Eritrea and Djibouti. They Speak a Cushitic language and are very closely related to Somalis. The following are pictures of Afar women in tradition attire.

Hbuyosh: And hey, Ajuran, do not taunt the americans over the black hawk fiasco. You merely outnumbered their soldiers, who nevertheless inflicted such heavy casualty on the otherwise very heavily armed Hussein Aideed fighters.
20 something american soldiers killed an estimated 450 somali fighters and injured so many others before they were finally subdued. What if they were just hundred? Those chanting savages would have been completely annihilated on that day!

As i recall the americans left Somalia and so did the U.N. but your a bantu, you would have surrendered cause you rather live in shame than die with pride.

If nubians and sudanese are more related to bantus, why did they try to kill them, over a million died. lmao
I wish this forum had people from sudan.

ladionline: AJURAN, I LOVE YOU, WE ALL ARE HUMANS, NOSE APART. WE NEED SOMEWHERE LIVELY TO FEEL ALIVE, AND CONSTANT ARGUMENT TO STAY SO. BUT TRY BE MORE POSSITIVE TO MAKE FRIENDS.

I love u too. Can you teach me 419?

Somali dance

More Somali clothing

This is how we dress

Fulaman198: That's the beauty of African unity, we don't necessarily want our own country. We are proud of our identity of being nomads. A nomad never has a country. That is why we are called Nomads

Somalis are nomads and they have their own country named after them mind you.

[quote author=Proud.SAfrican]My Kind? Who exactly is my kind?[/quote]Negroids.

Fulaman198: Ok cool most Fulani people know their language in addition to knowing neighbouring languages and Arabic. Thus is the lifestyle of the nomad, to know all neighbouring languages.

Fulanis don't even have their own country Please compare them to somalis.

Fulaman198: Not true, Somalia has 2 official languages, Somali and Arabic. So tell me what that is about...

That was added during the transitional federal government for purposes of trade and to have more ties to the middle east.
But the only language Somalia has always had was Somali. only 5percent at most of somalis speak arabic and its a second language to them.
We are not like the sudanese who have been arabized. In terms of culture we actually have more in common with people in southern india
than with arabs, and the only arab country we have much in common with is Yemen.

Fulaman198: It's the case in every where in Africa where neighbouring peoples speak another person's language. Do you know that 85% of Fulani people speak Arabic fluently as a result of living nearby Arabs? Nubian language still exists.......Almost every Nigerian Fulani person speaks Hausa, it does not mean that Hausa is our language.....Same goes for Nubians almost every Nubian speaks the same type of Arabic spoken in Nigeria (Shuwa), however it does not mean that Arabic is the language of the Nubians.

I know that map is inaccurate because Hausa is spoken in Burkina Faso, Ghana, and a lot of other West African countries but it is not marked on the map so something is definitely wrong. Also there are Nilo-saharan groups throughout the Western Sahel.

Speaking another tongue shows you were influenced by a superior Group. This is why Somalis speak Somali.
