Somaliland is a country that exists… but isn’t officially recognized by most of the world. After a brutal war in 1988 and the collapse of Somalia in 1991, Somaliland declared independence and built its own government, currency, and elections, yet it remains in legal limbo.
In this video, we break down the complete story of Somaliland:
The colonial history that led to its creation
The atrocities of 1988
Why some call it genocide and others don’t
How Somaliland built a functioning state from scratch
The strategic importance of Berbera port
And why global powers like Ethiopia, UAE, Taiwan, and Israel are now paying attention
With rising tensions in the Red Sea and new geopolitical interests, Somaliland is no longer ignored and it’s becoming one of the most important places in Africa.
So… is Somaliland a real country?

I think Somaliland needs at least 5 countries to recognize it and sponsor its case so it can take it to international courts
We are really angry at the whole world for not standing up to us right for self determination.
By presenting real stories and historical truth, you have given a voice to innocent victims who suffered greatly and ensured that their experiences are not forgotten. This is not just a documentary — it is an important act of remembrance, justice, and awareness.
Your dedication to truth and storytelling is truly admirable. Thank you for shedding light on such a significant part of history with honesty and compassion.
