You had thirty years to negotiate yourselves out of a collapsed state and you failed. There's no hope for seceding anymore because Somalia is developing.
The same could be said about Somaliland.
It’s not the colonial border that will decide if Somaliland will be recognised. It is what they can negotiate over. Right now Somaliland is working on support from tribes outside Gabiley and Hargeisa.
If war where to happen they would get the ears of the international community. Depending on how the war develop will decide what they can negotiate over.
It’s that bloody simple, and very sad that people will potential loose their lives and get injured.
The same could be said about Somaliland.
Sovereign state my ass, they contol a small part of the capital. Somalia is under a never ending cycle of not moving forward.
We will never rejoin that..
