I've always known the Somalian story was very complicated. As Haitian I known their story was never being told, but they were being project as violent people. Thanks for the telling truth on Somailia

[@Lextine]

The Somali story itself is more complicated than anything. These news outlets only report those stories which only benefited them. I wouldnt be surprised if many Somalis abroad didnt know a thing a two either

[@aldoushuxley6080]

Somalis themselves are divided on the story. So many evil people injected their own narratives and ideas into us. This is part of the reason Somalia has stayed in its sad state. Foreign powers (mainly Arab gulf states like Saudi as well as Ethiopia) don’t want us to prosper again because it will affect their economy and political power.

[@atti9369]

@@aldoushuxley6080-Somalian invasion of Ethiopia seems to mark the beginning of the end for Somalia. Somalians are their own worst enemy. No point blaming other countries while killing each other. Nevertheless the international community should help them to band illegal fishing in their water. with such a beautiful cost line the country should be thriving with tourism. How unfortunate to see a country with so much natural resources and huge potential disintegrated. What is wrong with Africans???? They never seems to learn.

[@aldoushuxley6080]

AT ti We’re not putting the entire blame on other countries. Obviously, Somalis themselves are largely to blame but we can’t ignore the role other countries played and continue to play in keeping the country unstable. The gulf Arab states use Somalia as a proxy state and have been caught smuggling money into the nation. Knowing that gulf states such as Saudi are terror-sponsorers, its very suspicious when they get caught meddling in our politics. For one, somalia is rich in resources that the gulf states love such as camels, coal, etc. Not only that, but Somalia has a large coastline so imagine how that would affect commerce in the region. It would lessen the geopolitical role of gulf Arab states in the region. Also, the US is currently bombing Somalia while they’re trying to rebuild and there are puppets engaged in shady businesses such as coal (which has greatly contributed to worsened droughts due to the cutting down of trees which in turn has lead to starvation as the livestock starve and the plants die). So it becomes a cycle. It’s not as simple as Africans “just learning” like you make it seem. It’s far more complicated.

[@aldoushuxley6080]

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.

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.

Really good documentary. I feel like African history is not very known throughout the world so it was nice that you guys made this and that I learned something new.

Lost heaven.. these people can be the richest people on earth but chose to suffer Sending love from India.

[@fadumohirsi8073]

[@ojkgreezy3531]

It is not a choice to suffer when one has been continually exploited against their will

[@nasramohamuud3710]

[@fastandfurious3751]

They can call them pirates but for me they are our coast guards. The illegal fishing had to be fought by all means.

[@rolucia123]

Feels good to know that some recognize our story. Am half somali and ethiopian, although Ethiopia we have a huge history Somalia too, but it is not put through media. You have to search it on your own..

Tears fall down my chick when I see my people are suffering

[@drabdullahikurdi272]

I was born 1991 when the Switzerland of Africa fall... I am optimistic that we are going to trace for our lost glory

[@Abraham_Tsfaye]

As a neighbor country - Ethiopia - we know Somalis are very tough and resilient people. Nothing gets them down. They just keep coming up again and again and again. Admirable people.

[@ibrahimkamal4809]

it's not falling into the river that kills you,it's staying submerged.another African power house,somali is standing up as we speak.good luck to you Switzerland of Africa.❤ from Kenya 🇰🇪

[@hamzathelinguist6921]

I am curious to know why there was no history given pre-colonial era? nor any background on the tribes/clans?

[@goldenfoxa1810]

+Hamza The Linguist i know what a shame

[@libanfarah4491]

when somalia heals the people will speak again... Like they say we are the Poets of africa...

[@aldoushuxley6080]

There is a lot of history behind the clans and the region before the colonial era. Each clan has a rich line of history that dates back centuries. You can teach yourself about Somalia’s history with the resources online.

[@nightsfall3n]

Tribe is what destroyed somalia there 5 tribes but we call it 4.5 one tribe is half coz they're poor ans farmers and other 4 fight each other to best tribe

[@zainhottson7393]

Believe me, only the most interesting part of our history is during colonization and postcolonialism. I believe that the European powers, mainly the British (since it was the largest empire in the world), put little spice for each of their colonies.

[@sharnmonique7155]

It’s great that there are documentaries like this and there have been many of such done by people who are not African or from the diaspora but oh how I pray there will be more documentaries about Africa by people from Africa or the diaspora. What a game changer that will be

[@mugumejosesp8438]

Am from Uganda Uganda is a landlocked country but it is fighting hard to improve the livelihood of people Somalia has access to the see I believe if they manage their resources well they will grow into a middle income state

[@anr4578]

Mugume Josesp thanks 🙏 I’m somali live in Uganda 🇺🇬 good pple but i was remember when askari said to me here is Uganda isn’t soomalia when the someone atrack me may Allh give us peace ✌️

[@pehalwankodiramurthy3349]

Hope somalia regains it's past glory. (I am from India)

[@mohitbidhu3553]

Wish Somalia gets neutral and prosperous again, this is what we common man can say and do(especially for foreign countries affairs).

[@alibuffow2408]

everything from Asia runs through Somalia before been shipped off to European countries 🤔🤔🤔🤔

I left my beautiful country when I was 8 yrs old and now living in Uganda. I just pray that the somalia people unite again and put away their tribal issues and live as one people. May Allah SWT bring peace to my lovely country 🙏. AMEEN

[@senateurjuanito7013]

the Europeans have spent so much energy to divide Africa just for their well being. They call themselves civilized but we are more civilized than they are. 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.

[@mohamedwaititi6192]

One day I will be president of Somalia and give my people peace and prosperity I can’t wait to finish college 🥺🥺❤️
