They drank water and barely any vegetables or grains (maybe trading sorghum/maize from cultivating Somali & Horner communities ). Those niggas were deficient in everything

Majority of the population all over the world until the modern age were rural. So in Somaliweyn there were few coastal permanent settlements and very few urban towns. Majority of the population were nomadic camel herder or agro-pastoralist cattle herders who cultivated sorghum and some vegetables.

SL for example is as big as Syria but had a population of 300k during the protectorate days. These niggas constantly used to get wiped out from droughts every few years

The abbasids were very heavily influenced by the persians, so much of their food was pretty much persian food. They even celebrated persian customs like nowruz. It was also the centre of the islamic world during the time, so people all over the world had brought their foods and traditional customs

That's true, population density is important for stable settlements

Land quality is important. Syria’s long small Western part of the country running from Aleppo to the North and Damascus to the South is very fertile and hosts 80% of their population.

Our land wasn’t suitable to host large populations prior to modern times. So when the population got to high the environment culled the population of herds & humans via droughts.
