Somalia's modern history is a tale of independence, prosperity and democracy in the 1960s, military dictatorship in the 1970s and 1980s - followed by a desperate decline into civil war and chaos almost ever since.
The effect of the war has been to scatter the Somali people in their millions to refugee camps and neighbouring countries - and in their hundreds of thousands to the UK, Canada and the United States.
Somalia gained independence from Britain and Italy in 1960. It held free and fair elections and was ruled democratically from 1960 to 1969.
Once labelled the "Switzerland of Africa", Somalia enjoyed almost a decade of democracy. The first elected president of Somalia, uniting the former British and Italian territories, was Adam Abdullah Osman who reigned for seven years. He was succeeded, freely and peacefully, by Abdirashid Ali Sharmarke.
Sharmarke, however, was assassinated by one of his own bodyguards in 1969.
Speaker of the Somali Parliament Mukhtar Mohamed Hussein took over, but his brief, six-day tenure was cut short by a military coup led by General Siad Barre, ending Somalia's period of democratic government.
Whatever its faults - and there were many - Barre's 22-year rule effectively created modern Somalia, building one of Africa's strongest armies and massively improving the literacy of the population.
Yet Barre, who gained the support of the US and the Soviet Union, the superpowers of the day, also dissolved parliament, suspended the constitution, banned political parties, arrested politicians and curbed press freedom.
"From then, there was a downward trend. In everything. A disintegration. And every time things were going down, the military regime was becoming more brutal and more dictatorial," says Jama Mohamed Ghalib, a former Somali government minister.
But when Barre launched the Ogaden war in 1977 to take the Somali majority region from Ethiopia, it provoked serious international opposition, including that of the Soviet Union which had once supported Barre but now sided with Ethiopia. The Somali army was forced to withdraw.
But the other long-lasting outcome was civil war, with myriad competing factions and frequent intervention by foreign powers and neighbouring countries.
In 2006, the Islamic Courts Union split into several factions, one of which was Al Shabab. The radical group still controls large parts of the south of the country today.

It breaks my heart to see Somalia like this 😭💔as deeply love & respect Somalian people. Somalia is beatiful country with rich natural resources & hard working people, which i believe why some countries are interested in Somalia & interfering in its peace process. Somalia is not a failed State its just going through hardship & i do believe that they will UNITE & have PEACE for ever very soon. I do believe that we African countries are failing Somalia as we don't seems to help them in bringing peace in their country. Love from Eritrea😍✌👏

jamexxxxxxxx You are oversimplifying the issue. If Somalis are born to naturally be mentally challenged, then how did they develop all of their advanced civilizations? You clearly have no knowledge of Somalia’s history. The reason for its fall was caused by a socialist dictator. Before the fall in the 90s, Somalia was very prosperous and even defended their country from European powers for a very long time. Research how Britain and Italy colonized Somalia and you will find out the long struggle of the Brits and Italians to colonize the country. Tell me what you’ve achieved in your life with your high IQ?

At minute 12:40 of the documentary, Al Jazeera must apologize for saying in this video '' the rest, what had been Italian Somalia became Federal Republic of Somalia''. Federal Republic of Somalia is internationally the whole of both British colonized northwestern part of Somalia and Italian colonized the rest parts of Somalia.

Before we get Ogaden Somaliland and Somalia have to unite first. We united 1960s to Get Ogaden, NFD and Back then French Somalia ( Djibouti) but again we disunited in 1990s and now Somaliland wants independence so why dream for Ogaden when now when we aren't even United whats now called Somalia. Dont get me wrong Iam also from Somaliland but to get Greater Somalia back Somaliland and Somalia must unite first the rest will come naturally.

Look at the history of Africa it is completely destroyed with the arrival of the Europeans and their jealousy for Africa they would have liked to live there but without the Africans. But we are strong and we will recover. My Africa the mother of all lands. the world will be better when Africa REPRESENTS ITS PLACE WHICH IS RIGHT OF LAW.

Your insuting tells us that you are not an educated person but a naive perso therefore go the places where the people learn from something please before you insult another people and another continent. good people don't insult people while bad people and naive people do that.
