Somalia
Somalia occupies the Horn of Africa, where the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden meet a largely arid, sun-baked landscape of scrub desert, dry riverbeds, and a coastline stretching over 3,300 kilometres. Decades of civil conflict have shaped daily life profoundly, though Somali culture — rooted in oral poetry, pastoralism, and trade — has remained tenacious throughout.
About Somalia
Overview
Somalia borders Ethiopia, Kenya, and Djibouti, and sits at a strategic maritime crossroads between East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. Mogadishu is the capital and largest city. Somali is the official language, spoken across a notably unified linguistic landscape unusual for the region. The Somali shilling is the official currency, though the US dollar circulates widely in commerce.
