Reality Check Posted September 2, 2004 People from Somalia are called Somalis. I don't know why others call us Somalians, because it's not correct. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xarago Posted September 2, 2004 Gabadha-og adigu aha qofki yidhi Somali is ethnic. Hence you can be from Thailand or even Chile you will still be Somali ethnically but of different national. In the case of Somaliland it is the name of the country and its citizens are called Somalis. Why is it called Somaliland cause its inhabitants are Somalis. And for your info Somaliland was the first country inhabited by Somalis to be independence and exist as nation untill we were so foolishly led by wider natinalism.

Qudhac Posted September 2, 2004 OG eeeerm... see once again you gone another full circle nobody was discusiing what name of the country is called i believe topic was the people.. the inhabitans as for your suggestion to call somaliland another name, why would we do that when thats the name this country was called since the early 1880s lool another case of arguing for the sake of it it seem.

Che -Guevara Posted September 2, 2004 Qudhac....Saaxib, call yourself Somalilander or whatever, and I would respect that but plz show some courtesy, and call us by right name. We southerners are called Somali. Somali is not just our ethnicity, but our nationality as well.We are not Somalians, Italian Somalilanders, Southern Somalilanders, etc. We are Somali, and our country is Somalia! N correction, all somali terrotories colonised by the west were called Somalilands e.g British Somaliland, French Somaliland,etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AYOUB Posted September 2, 2004 ^^^Correction Italia used to call the south SOMALIA ITALIANA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baashi Posted September 2, 2004 ^And you won't hear us demand from the SomaliLanders to call us by what Italians called their new found land in the dark continent . Somali, Somalian, SomaliLander, Arlu Al-Soomaal, shifta, etc are names "others" used to call us. If our brothers like to be called what the British called then new addition of their vast empire. Fine, will do just that out of respect. It is common courtesy to call people by what they like to be called. I advice my fellow nomads to respect our brothers. Make no mistake though the question of separation and the secession is a fair game to slice, dissect, and put on the SOL hot seat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
