[quote="Shirib"][quote="King-of-Awdal"]Shirib as u stated ur self Digil and Mirifle are a federation of clans who dont have one single ancestor while on the other hand Dir we trace our Lineage to one man so technically we are much largers than you. As for Dir land u must be joking if u honestly belive it only Awdal which only two Dir clan reside. Somali Galbeed, Djbouti. Puntland and almost every single region in Somalia has a population of Dir while on the other hand u basically are a pure southerner tribe.[/quote]
I didn't say that they only reside in Awdal I said Awdal is the only region they are the most in, as in the biggest clan in that region (I ain't counting Djbouti).
What does tracing you're lineage to one man have to do with being large?
Digil y Mirifle is larger then Dir. I think Rahanweyn by itself is bigger then Dir.
Where do people get these ideas.[/quote]
It means Rahanweyn or Digil and Mirifle arent really a clan who are related because u guyz are a federation who in order to counter the other biggers tribes joined in a federation to help out each other while on the hand Dir are related by Blood just as Hawiya and Darood are. The difference between us and Digil Mirifle is you guyz tend to adopt any clan while we dont.
