Change the capital city

I asked someone in another post, do you think changing capitals would make it safer and lessen the violence, or would they just target the new seat of the gov wherever it is?

Up in the Calmadow mountain range near Ceerigabo.

Perfect temperature ranges where people could actually think unlike anywhere else in Somalia.

Greenery and local resources to construct the city. Only issue is water resources but I'm sure we could make it work.

We don't even need the touch the current forest and green regions... plenty of nearby deforested area.

Who owns all the land around Xamar?

Someone I know tried buying a plot of land in SW state but he had to negotiate with the local clan/warlords for it.

Is it the same in Benaadir?

If we can't lawfully buy & sell land around previously built cities... then building a new city might be the best option for investors and entrepreneurs.

Otherwise no one would be willing to invest since all the wealth will go to the local bandits.
 
Changing the capital would only embolden the terrorists as they'd see it as a major victory. It's better we stand our ground as Xamar is a multi-qabiil city. What little sense of security the people of Xamar have managed to retain will quickly evaporate. People would scramble to get out and it would become a warzone, even more dangerous than it is now. This is one of the reasons why I oppose this. All progress would retrogress. It would ultimately serve as a major blow to the credibility and validity of the government.

If we were to change it(temporarily that is, until it's purified of Islamist filth), I would recommend Hobyo. It's a port city and well-developed compared to most of the surrounding vicinity. The proximity to Xamar is also an advantage as conducting military operations would be easier. A potential drawback is that some would criticize it as a qabilist move and use it to further their own agendas.

Nah, I propose Harar to become the new capital of Somaliweyn.

War maxaa dacay?! :wtf::wtf: I thought I could trust you.:damn: Apparently not. You've been stripped of all your honors. You will be dispatched dishonorably for that treasonous post. :francis: We'll give you a life sentence instead of a brutal execution as a token of our gratitude for your service. :kendrickcry: How could you though? Even amongst fellow patriots, I have to sleep with one eye open. Disgraceful!:jcoleno:

Harar was the capital of the glorious Adal Empire, we have long historical connections to that city....
:rejoice::wow:

When we regain the city & make it our capital it will symbolise the return of Somali military & political superiority in the Horn.

I'd say it's too close to the Ethiopian border...or are we gonna holocaust them?

So many possibilities...:lawd:
 
Alshabab is targeting Mogadishu because it's the seat of the federal government, where ever else you move it will be targetted as well. When alshabab controls the capital city, they control the country that's why they've always been targeting Mogadishu.

This is pretty obvious idk why people pretend not to understand it. Anything to try and score points against eachother.
