It would seem there a few (5) individuals who deem it necessary to apply non factual definitions on and about Somalia and in particular the Northern Region of Somalia.

Somaliland is the former territory ruled by Great Britain before becoming independent on June 26, 1960 and uniting with Italian Somalia to form the Somali Republic. On May 18, 1991, the people of the Isaaq clan from northwest of Somalia declared independence from Somalia, however, natives of north central and northeast Somalia (Hurti sub-clan of Darood eg Dhulbahante) do not recognise the administration nor is it recognised by any other country or international organization.

Somaliland is accepted by the rest of Somalia as a clandestine movement and has been successful in administrating the native Isaaq boarders within Somalia however this has also created a backlash as other Somalis refuse its separatist stance for fear of renewing clan conflicts.

Oct 15th has seen renewed clan attacks from the Isaaq lead Somaliland Administration on the civilian population of Laas Caanod in an attempt to secure the old British Boarders. The biggest humanitarian crisis in the region has occurred and clan warfare is imminent.
