Bro, what you need to understand is that it's all arbitrary really, a man from ceelaayo is culturally closer to a fellow somali from bari whether he is a warsan, dhishishly, mj or whatever than to a reer woqiye from wooqiye galbeed, a samaroon from saylac might be more culturally similar to a fellow gadabuursi in ethiopia or djibouti than to a fellow reer woqiye from laascanood. What you need to understand is that Somalis as imprudent nomads who moved around depending on seasons, weather, needs etc were never really constrained by colonial powers. That's one of the reasons why we are one of the least culturally affected people by clonial powers in Africa, apart from of course in places like xamar etc which it's orignal inhabitants were never really nomads anyway. Of course you can generalise; there definitely does exist a popular or should I say common woqiye and konfuur culture but what I'm telling you is you really can't split Somalilands into exact, easily differentiable areas, lol If you understand what I'm saying.It is only culturally relevant but it does have some geographic connotations. For example, when we Somalis decided what was north and what was south, we were using cultural centers as talking points -- the northerners looked towards Xamar, Mudug, and Waamo to define the south, which are in fact geographically southward -- they did not particularly look towards quiet Bari or Nugaal as examples, and those are the only two regions that beat the north-south theory as a strictly geographic one.
The More You Know!

keep it moving mate, your a nobody. Somalis know Wuqooyi and Koonfur. what they dont know is the large patch of desert your from.Well, it seems that nobody wants puntland, the southerners don't consider them Southerners and the Northerners don't consider them Northerners.
