Cissa and Gadabuursi are not small clans. Clearly you are a shisheye that does not interact with them. Nor do you know of their size or dynamics. They are the largest Dir clans with very long histories of kingships so put some respect on their names.
My bad I didn't mean to cause offense or make into a langaab v landheere thing. I know cisse run Djibouti and live in the Ogadeen, and even fought alongside Ahmed Gurey against the amxaaro. And that Awdal is majority Gadabuursi.
However, I was just talking about political dominance and differences in numbers. For example, it's no offence to the other subclans but everyone knows that Abgaal,Gaaljecel,Habar Gidir are the biggest Hawiye tribes....muursade,xawadle,duduuble,baadicade,sheekhaal are smaller in relation to them. For Darood the dominant tribes are Ogadeen and Majerteen followed by dhuulbahante,marexaan,leelkase,awrtable etc.
I thought Isaaq were the biggest Dir tribe? Followed by Cissa, then Gadabuursi, biyomaal,Surre etc
I didn't mean to make it into a competition. But my intention was that the Somali political scene has been dominated by Hawiye v Darood v Isaaq rivalry(forgetting that Cissa run a whole country lol). If we were to elect a king it couldn't be from any of those three tribes since they are distrustful of each other. Rather it should be a tribe that no one has a grudge against, and which is seen as neutral.
So yeah I should've said a neutral tribe not smaller since for us Somalis it's a personal attack lol
