Our ancestors should have been more expansionist.

Socotra? I was thinking of southeast Africa like the great rift valley. Can you imagine if Somalis conquered this rich area before the Bantus? History would've been different today.

Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, and Madagascar would've been awesome to colonize too. All these rich fertile lands and coast would've been amazing to sit on. The tiny islands around this area could've been the Somali version of the Caribbean islands forget the dry Socotra island. It's such a shame the Bantus beat us to it.
:mjkkk:
Let us start off with getting Ogaden NFD and part of dijbouti back then establish a intelligent leader
 
The Socotra Island looks creepy with some weird looking plants and animals.

Because they didn't thought it would have any value, beside that they were more like staying on the land and not sailing. You say that because you know now who value it is geopoliticallly.

The same question you descended will probably ask why their ancestor were losers going after others properties, and not investing in something useful
 
Socotra is not Somali! It has always belonged to proto-Semites called "Al-Mahra" aka Meheri/Carab Saalax.


Many settled in North-Eastern Somalia and became "Arab Salah" aka Meheri @SuldaankaMeheri 's people.

The current Sultan of the Al-Mahra Sultanate came to visit Puntland not that long ago.

The Mahra Sultanate, known in its later years as the Mahra State of Qishn and Socotra (Arabic: Ψ§Ω„Ψ―ΩˆΩ„Ψ© Ψ§Ω„Ω…Ω‡Ψ±ΩŠΨ© Ω„Ω„Ψ¨Ψ± ΩˆΨ³Ω‚Ψ·Ψ±Ω‰β€Ž Ad-Dawlah al-Mahreyah Llbar wa-SuquαΉ­rah) or sometimes the Mahra Sultanate of Ghayda and Socotra (Arabic: Ψ³Ω„Ψ·Ω†Ψ© Ψ§Ω„Ω…Ω‡Ψ±Ψ© في Ψ§Ω„ΨΊΩŠΨΆΨ© ΩˆΨ³Ω‚Ψ·Ψ±Ω‰β€Ž SalαΉ­anat al-Mahrah fΔ« al-Ghayḍā’ wa-SuquαΉ­rah) was a sultanate that included the historical region of Mahra and the Guardafui Channel island of Socotra in what is now eastern Yemen. It was ruled by the Banu Afrar dynasty for most of its history.

In 1886, the Sultanate became a British protectorate and later joined the Aden Protectorate. The Sultanate was abolished in 1967 upon the founding of the People's Republic of South Yemen and is now part of the Republic of Yemen.[1]

The Sultanate was inhabited by the Mahri people who spoke the Mahri language, a modern South Arabian language. The Mehri share, with their regional neighbours on the island of Socotra and in Dhofar in Oman, blood lineage ties in Somalia with the Darood tribe, cultural traditions like a modern South Arabian language, Arabic incursions, and frankincense agriculture. The region benefits from a coastal climate, distinct from the surrounding desert climate, with seasons dominated by the khareef or monsoon.
 
I'm not relate to soctoris

Socotra is an island that belongs to Al-Mahra people

But a group of them became Somali through marrying MJ/Harti. They are called Carab Saalax and are closer to MJs than any group on earth. Ask @SuldaankaMeheri & @Tucking_Fypo

Meheris came to Puntland and married MJs/Harti and thus the Carab Saalax clan was born. In Oman, Hartis married Al-Meheri and AlShehri and other Proto-Semites and became Arabised.
 
If I was soctoris why am i not short

You're not Socotri. I am explaining that the island belongs to Proto-Semites called "Al-Mahrah" these people are close allies to Puntites, through trade and intermarriage historically.

That's how the Carab Saalaax/Meheri clan was born.

Socotra is right next to Puntland.
