Somaliland
Also known as Republic of Somaliland
självutropad stat i östra Afrika
AI overview
Somaliland is a territory in the Horn of Africa with its own government and institutions, though most countries do not officially recognize it as an independent state; it borders Somalia, Ethiopia, and Djibouti, with a population of about 6.2 million people centered around its capital city, Hargeisa. It matters because its status as a partially recognized state reflects ongoing political complexities in the region and raises questions about self-determination and international recognition in Africa.

Somaliland, officiellt Republiken Somaliland (somaliska: Jamhuuriyadda Soomaaliland; arabiska: أرض الصومال, Arḍ aṣ-Ṣūmāl), är en sedan 1991 självutropad stat i östra Afrika. Huvudstad är Hargeisa. Somaliland saknar helt internationellt erkännande och betraktas internationellt som en del av Somalia, men landet har i praktiken fungerat som helt självständig stat efter den somaliska centralregeringens kollaps 1991. Det gränsar i nordväst till Djibouti, i väster och söder till Etiopien och i öster till Puntland (Somalia). Området var det brittiska protektoratet Brittiska Somaliland fram till 1960, då det uppgick i den nya staten Somalia.
