Somalia (/səˈmɑːliə, soʊ-, -ljə/so-MAH-lee-ə; Somali: Soomaaliya; Arabic: الصومال aṣ-Ṣūmāl), officially the Federal Republic of Somalia (Somali: Jamhuuriyadda Federaalka Soomaaliya, Arabic: جمهورية الصومال الفدرالية Jumhūrīyat aṣ-Ṣūmāl al-Fidirālīyah), is a country located in the Horn of Africa. It is bordered by Ethiopia to the west, Djibouti to the northwest, the Gulf of Aden to the north, the Indian Ocean to the east, and Kenya to the southwest. Somalia has the longest coastline on the continent's mainland, and its terrain consists mainly of plateaus, plains and highlands. Climatically, hot conditions prevail year-round, with periodic monsoon winds and irregular rainfall.
Somalia has a population of around 10.8 million. Around 85% of its residents are ethnic Somalis, who have historically inhabited the northern part of the country. Ethnic minorities are largely concentrated in the southern regions. The official languages of Somalia are Somali and Arabic, both of which belong to the Afroasiatic family. Most people in the country are Muslim, with the majority being Sunni.

The humanitarian crisis in Somalia is one of the most complex in the world. People are affected by the combined shocks of conflict, droughts, floods, disease outbreaks and displacement. Polish Humanitarian Action's (PAH) strategic focus in Somalia are water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) activities which the agency is specialized in. PAH's projects include repairs of boreholes, water points and latrines, training for health promoters and distribution of kits containing water purification tablets. The organisation has been present in Somalia since 2011. With WASH and nutrition programmes, PAH has supported more than 80 000 people from the most vulnerable communities in different regions of Somalia.

If you're like me you've researched the heroic story of Black Hawk Down. From the movie, documentaries, and stories. I've seen em all. I've searched and noticed this documentary wasnt available online. So I took it upon myself to upload: "Black Hawk Down - Somalia - Good Intentions, Deadly Results" (Documentary)Enjoy!
In 2011, an international peacekeeping force pushed al Shabaab Islamists from Somalia's capital city. The fight continues in the countryside and in Mogadishu. The weakened extremists launch periodic suicide bombs and IED attacks. For a generation, the lives of young Somalis have been obscured by the violence. Today, the fragile peace in Mogadishu allows youth to imagine a future beyond war. We asked five people to share their stories.

Barbaric Attacks In Somalia - World Documentaries The 2009 - present phase of the Somali Civil Battle is concentrated in southern Somalia. It began in very early February 2009, with the dispute between the forces of the Federal Government of Somalia assisted by African Union peacekeeping soldiers as well as various militant Islamist teams and factions.

World's deadliest tourist Destination. Editor-Jitendra Kumar Jitu Voice-Anju Paudel Travelling should be more than packing bags, travelling long way to a 7star hotel and visiting some of most likely visited tourist destination. According to my idea of holiday, if you have a charged pocket, a desire to taste some adventure (or taste death) then you must visit Somalia. Somalia is on the Horn of Africa, and is bordered by Ethiopia to the west, Djibouti to the north-west, and Kenya on its south-west. On June 21, the US Federal Government has issued a Travel Warning for the country. Travel to Somalia is EXTREMELY NOT recommended as the conflict continues. Somalia is noted as the world's unsafe travel destination and is one of the most dangerous places on Earth. Somalia is home to the largest c...

When most people think of the country Somalia, they associate it with the only areas national media cover, pirates, extremist terrorism, famine and war. A self declared independent state of this country named Somaliland seemed to be different from the rest, the people were happy, it was safe to travel too and they seek peace following the 1988 Somali war. Somaliland is a self declared independent state, that has been fighting for recognition since the 1960’s. Since then, Somaliland has managed to instate its own visa’s, currency, police force and even access to reliable internet. I wanted to discover more about the somali people are what they are really like, and how they live their lives. So i researched ways to get into the country. Crossing the border is relatively easy in fact, you ju...

A travel promo video showing a recent trip to the Horn of Africa to visit both Ethiopia and the self declared independent state of Somaliland. We traveled overland from the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa visiting towns such as Dire Dawa and Harar the crossing the border into Somaliland. From here we visited Hargeisa, the capital plus the costal settlement of Berbera. The people of Somaliland have been fighting for international recognition ever since the civil war and declaration of independence in 1991. With deserted beaches, 5000 year old cave paintings and a tiny capital city full of warm friendly people, Somaliland is a extremely unique side of Africa, that is so far empty of tourists, yet full of adventure and potential!

Davidson College Professor of Political Science Ken Menkhaus discusses his recent research on Somalia; the efforts to build a stable state in this troubled Horn of Africa country, despite ongoing conflict; how the “commodification of security sector work” challenges state-building; and the connection between security and development.
Real footage is shown to prove that the film Black Hawk Down (2001) was very true to the real events that occured in Mogadishu in 1993. Actual militia and US rangers are interviewed to tell us the different sides of the conflict when Somalia was under the power of Aidid.
What steps are needed to make peace last? The Big Question at RISING 15 brings together a fascinating panel to discuss these questions and share insights into the reality of volatile and fluctuating patterns of peace and conflict, from Somalia to Kosovo, Liberia to Moscow and beyond.
