They're your brothers whatever dispute that exists between your clan and them in Ethiopia, it's a land tribal dispute between you two which is not that different with Ciise against Samaroons or any other two Somali clans having a dispute over a grazing land.

Most are refugees I've seen them around. There's a few that are old stock but they're assimilated and most intermarried with Somali like my great grandmother. But the newgens who came off the boat got relocated by the gov from places like Obock to the city and Somali buisnessmen scoop them up for low wages. But many set up restraunts I remember going to a Yemeni restraunt ran by freshies with my cousin and dad and we ate their grilled caloon.
Ciise and Samaaroon is not the same as Ciise and Afar.
The Afar are a whole ethnicity beefing our sub clan.
Samaroon are our fellow Dir, another branch of the same clan family.
Afar and us Somalis are particularly the same people with just slight difference between us when it comes into custom and language but never in our history did our people see them as "foreigners" hence why intermarriage is common with them and if you look at your clan relations with Afar you would see the same kind of clan meeting that two somali clans have to solve a dispute between them with it be murder or Camel theft and it's very common with Ciise subs and Afar subs that share the same grazing land and somalis never had that kind of relationship with any other group in the region, including the Oromos who are largely seen as foreigners by our ancestors.
Yes I see we are similar, as Ciise. But it's not all rainbows, there has always been a clear distinction. Afar language is very alien to a Somali. We still consider each other to be seperate ethnicities and we never claim to be of similar lineages.
That's very different to the relationship with Samaroon who are seen as just other Dir Somali. There's a very big difference in that alone. Though I can admit culture, language & ethnicity gets very tangled. Gurgura are Dir and very close to Ciise. But they speak Oromo.
Meanwhile hundreds of thousands of Afar, larger than gurgura, speak af somali and have assimilated into Ciise society in Djibouti city.
You say that when Afars see their dispute with some subs of your clan to be between two neighborly communities and not a "Somali-Afar" one , that tells you that we're one people who share the same history in the region regardless of our different lineages we have and Afar language is no strange to Ciise geeljire ear as he also knows it the same way an Canfar geeljire does .
Ok maybe canfar sounds similar
