Question about Ogaden region

[Somaliweyn]

Who named the Western Somali lands as Ogaden region?

Did the British do that during the European expansion into Horn of Africa?

[Looyaan_Junior]

The region was known as Ogaden even before the British. If you mean did the British document the region with this name, then the answer is yes.

[Somaliweyn]

So the British named it and documented it, which means basically the only reason why the region is called in international documents as ''Ogaden region'' is because of the British.

Correct?

[Addoow]

some people dont like to use the clan name"ogaden"when refering to that land,they prefer somali galbeed.however,the cagheers made the situation worst when they formed a clan militia to free the land ..The ONLF

[The_Patriot]

the name itself is irrelevant, its not that when you go to that region every mile you will see a billboard written welcome to Ogaden.

People in the region want to use scapegoats and blame others fro not participating in liberating the land the Isas & Gurguras had their own liberation fronts who refuses others to use theirs?
In the end of the day its your land that is occupied.

Correct?

No!, INCORRECT, I don't understand why you are twisting things, I said the region was known as Ogaden even before the British. The way to construct a good hypothesis is not misrepresenting someones answers.

If you want to debate about the Ogaden then you are most welcome as long as you don't change my words to suit your way of thinking.

well,then no wonder why they are still slaves in the 21st century.

Where are the Ethiopians in somalia in mogadishu who leaves in mogadishu Abgaal so we will see who is the real slave.

[Addoow]

[Addoow]

[makumba59]

The ONLF wouldnt know how to free themselves from a one door tent, let alone a whole region!

Benta shegeysid firi? you were not only killing civilians but you also targeted your real cousins, nieces and nephews from Darood.

the pot and the kettle.

In former times cast iron pots and kettles were quickly blackened from the soot of the fire. The pot would then be hypocritical to insult the kettle's colour, since both are black with soot.
