According to U.N, Somaliland is far less populous than Puntland. Hargeisa is smaller than Bosaso

[Cumar]

This is the official Somalia population survey done in 2014. Even the federal government uses it for projects. Bari + Nugaal put together has smaller population than Hargeisa district (Waqooyi Galbeed).

Correct, After Mogadishu, Hargeisa is no doubt the second largest city in Somalia. It is not up for question at all.

Correct, After Mogadishu, Hargeisa is no doubt the second largest city in Somalia. It is not up for question at all.

1. Benadir region (most populated)

2. Waqooyi Galbeed region (second populated)

3. Lower Shabelle (third populated region)

that is how it is in Somalia.

There was a deeper estimate found. SM was 110 thousand while HJ was 113 thousand and Dhulbahante was only 104 thousand and I will post that survey very soon. Let me dig it up again.

So post it then.

Hargeisa district is 959k, out of that 223k are rural. That means 736k people in Hargeisa district are urban.

Subtract out urban folk in places like Baligubadle, Salaxley etc... and you will then find how many people live in Hargeisa proper.

Not to mention the fact that Isaaq is bigger than Darood in Somalia. Somaliland population alone is bigger than Puntland and Jubbaland combined. The source you have shown added whole Mudug, whole Sanaag and whole Sool so you're basically claiming Isaaq and Hawiye lands and their numbers. The truth is Puntland is 2.2 million since they only control Bari, Nugaal and half of Mudug. Somaliland is around 4 million or higher.

Here is 1960 estimation of Somali clans in Somalia.

If Isaaq was actually more populous than Darood, your people wouldn't be trying so hard to separate.

It was suspended because of how ridiculous the assertion was. These quasi census reports are often subcontracted out to NGOs filled with s with their inherent tribal bias. They couldn't even at least try to make their lies believable.

Exactly. I think you'll find that number will be no where near close to the paltry 400,000 the OP was suggesting.

Tbh outside of dhulos it doesn't break down other groups population at all outside of the pic above
Am guessing population is the reason you want to read it?

Yeah. Interested in learning more about northern subclans, especially western Somaliland.

You dhulbahante bro?

 

[Manafesto]

OP, here is a more recent source from the UNFPA on estimated population by district in Somalia. They even estimated Hargiesa as the second largest district in Somalia with a population just shy of 1 million.View attachment 41320

You mean to tell me that Burco has more poplution than Atlanta. Y'all disillusional as hell.

I'm Jibril Abokor (HA) from Gabiley. Nah I know my abtirsi by heart. I am interested in mainly what the author said about my subclan as well as other related history of the region. I've been looking for a good book on the subject for quite sometime.

Atlanta isnt a big city. Even the capital of Ohio has a bigger population than Atlanta

 

[Manafesto]

Atlanta isnt a big city. Even the capital of Ohio has a bigger population than Atlanta

So Burco is bigger city than Atlanta?

 

[TheAnswer]

Atlanta

Hargesia:

When you chew khat kids, you'll think Hargesia is a bigger city than Atlanta.

 

[Oday Sanaag]

So Burco is bigger city than Atlanta?

Population wise it's very similar . Two different sources posted in this thread have Burcos population at 400k +. Atlanta population is like 440k. They're about the same

 

[Cumar]

Atlanta

Hargesia:

When you chew khat kids, you'll think Hargesia is a bigger city than Atlanta.

The city of Atlanta and the Atlanta Metropolitan area are two entirely different concepts.

The former has less than 500,000 residents. The later is a metro area of over 5 million people.

I don't know why you are deliberately obfuscating the two.

 

[Oday Sanaag]

I don't know why these neefs are shocked. Atlanta Is in the south and that's the least populated region in the U.S.
