@ScionofCulture I found out I'm descended from a minor royal based in Bosaso and its environs in Somalia. My full name, so the connection makes sense, is Mohamed Abdulkarim Ali Hirad Fahiye Ali Osman. My father sent me some research he'd been doing alongside an old photo of the family seat.
This week in Somaliniimo has been wild! First I see the Israeli flag being flown in Hargeisa and then I find out Hirsi Ali has converted to Christianity (the kind that has powered MAGA). She's on stage talking about inviting Jesus into her heart!
