Since the fall of the central government In Somalia in 1991, a wide segment of North Somalia residents found itself under the power and mutilation of the Somali national movement.

After a long period of time up to three and a half decades, many residents in northern Somalia suffered from the domination of the separatist project, which was imposed on them, and they remained during that arduous march in the reality of a confrontation with the separatists, and this resulted in a series of suffering on various life levels, and created a sharp conflict between the projects of unity and separation, The population, in turn, and those who expanded the gap among themselves.

During the year 2023, the residents of the governorates of Sool,Sanaag and Buhodle district managed to resolve their political fate, which led to the targeting of the separatist administration for them by launching an open war in them, and in another direction to fight a comprehensive political conflict against them. Among the womb of change and the growth of unitary political and social forces is represented by both Khaatumo or Maakhir, who are the residents of the largest current from the governorates of Sool,Sanaag and the Buhodle district, the path towards seeking to build a political administrative entity subject to the federal government in Mogadishu, which for its part sponsors the meetings of those forces for the establishment of federal administration New, and it is expected to be called, the Northeast Somalia Administration

This entity has a distance before me, but it comes against the background of the existence of administrative entities represented by the land of Somalia and the landing land, which represents tribal projects that attracted a large sector of the unitary population in northern Somalia, whose lands have become disputed areas between both Hargeisa and Garowe In a more accurate context, it can be said the struggle of Isaac and the two galaxies on the present and the future of others

The outcome is that all the federal and separatist departments exist in Somalia are all representing tribal projects, its body is the absence of Somali reconciliation, and the lack of a national political project capable of devoting a democratic state, in isolation from the state of retail and political tyranny, And the presence of a state of primitive tribal quotation with aggressive tools, and cancels the presence of others from the tribal identity.

From the womb of a very deteriorating Somali reality, the project of the Dhulbahante, Warsangeli and their allies from the rest of the tribes, represented in the administration of northeastern Somalia, which represents a historical necessity imposed by the separation project and the Garowe administration, which is calls usually by a self -ruling, and the irony is that she objected to the people of Khaatumo and Maakhir his lax to determine their political destiny.

The aim of this emergency political development on the Somali political scene is to cut the way for the separatist elites in Hargeisa and Garowe Rulings.

In general, the federal phenomenon in Somalia constitutes a mere racist state, as it is not based on logical or geographical political tools based on population, economic, administrative data, as much as the federal administration constitutes just a tribal entity, and the result is that Somalia has become a group of tribal cantons with a racist tendency, And conflict situations between them and the federal government on the other hand.

Consequently, the same matter also applies to the cases of Khaatumo and Maakhir, who were forced to ride the tribal cantonate train, although they derive their political legitimacy from their struggle with the separatist canton, in Hargeisa, The desire to link with the federal government in Mogadishu.

In principle, the future of Somalia requires the elastic central system as it is in France, which gives the regions great powers in light of the presence of local regional administrations subject to a flexible central rule, its role exceeded the reality of the central state, which the country suffered after its independence in 1960.
