Chronology of Local Coinage Production in the Horn of Africa. • Aksumite Empire: Coinage was minted from around 270 to 620 AD—a span of roughly 350 years. • Sultanate of Mogadishu: Coinage was minted from approximately 1300 to 1700 AD—a span of 400 years. • Awdal Sultanate (Bar Sa'ad Din): Coinage production likely coincided with the relocation of its capital to Harar in 1520—if not shortly after—and lasted until 1647, after which Harar broke off and formed the Emirate of Harar. • Emirate of Harar: Coinage continued to be minted from 1647 to 1887, a period of 240 years.

@FergieBallFan Same situation for Somalis. We used to have Oromos & Hararis fighting to secede from Ethiopia alongside Somali Galbeed, yet today we have Somalis themselves trying to secede from Somalia while Ethiopia and Kenya occupy parts of the country. Unbelievable levels of clout loss.

The only reason people reject Arabism now is because Arabs are humiliated. Guarantee if they were up like the Middle Ages everyone would be pro Arabism

@k0toamatsukam1 Probably because most Harari coins weren’t made of precious metals, but of metals like copper and brass instead. Same thing for the coins minted in Muqdisho. That's why Maria Theresa & German Thalers were used for larger purchases because they had higher precious metal content.

There were West African states that had well established trans-Saharan trade routes and riverine transport corridors, along with Ajami-based administrative writing. There was also no meaningful metallurgical gap until the industrial revolution. The real disadvantage was the reduced trade intensity between the Sahel and Guinea Coast due to the tsetse fly, which hampered technological and knowledge diffusion, and prevented regional advances from becoming universal over time.

Iran under heavy sanctions and embargoes developed some of the most sophisticated drone and ballistic missile technologies, supplied Hamas with weapons, and is among the world’s largest steel producers. Meanwhile the Gulf Arabs have no industrial or technical capabilities to speak of and use their Western missile defense systems to aid the Israelis. Shias are the laandheers of the middle east it is what it is.

Statements like this is why it was so important for ustadh abdulrahman Hassan to make that video exposing Shia. “Shia-Sunni unity” nonsense is misguiding a lot of Muslims. Do not support deviants just because they fire a few missiles at Israel. Don’t corrupt your deen!

Iranian leadership: Let's build nuclear centrifuges and enrich uranium. Saudi leadership: Let's build another luxury hotel, but with a clock on top of it, like Big Ben. Iranian leadership: Drones are the weapon of the future. Let's build the cheapest, most effective kind. Saudi leadership: Let's build a random city in the desert, but make it a line and give it a cool name like Neom. Iranian leadership: Ballistic missiles will establish deterrence. Let's become a global leader in hypersonics. Saudi leadership: Let's build the biggest cube-shaped shopping mall in the world.

Probably the most comprehensive video out there on the expansion of pastoralist nomads from the Pontic–Caspian steppe and the spread of the Indo-European languages associated with them across much of Eurasia. Most importantly it's Layman friendly. youtu.be/GtJ3iVROA60?si…

@RSA_Observer They can also launch satellites into low earth orbit independently which means they're probably capable of building ICBMs as well, they just chose to put a cap on their missile range capabilities. It's a serious country in an unserious region.

Keep reading. There's a lot more to this. Some other immediate points - they have a well developed auto industry and manufacture over a million cars anually. They manufacture very sophisticated gas turbines for the gas industry. They are a leader in ultra high strength concrete. And so on.

Hybrids put less stress on the engine by offloading low-speed/low-rpm demand to the electric motor, so not only are they more efficient, but they also increase engine longevity by reducing engine load. Buying a non-hybrid new car today thats not performance oriented is a major L

Remember in the late 00s/early 10s when the Top Gear guys would endlessly joke about how the Prius was an unreliable car, reliant on untested technology? I remember.

@Kulubnarti We got a Federal government that spent the last 15 years divying up & looting foreign aid instead of building an Army & governance capacity, and a bunch of qabil fiefdoms that want to function as their own little sovereign countries. Very unserious country bro.

@hornaristocrat The total budget for federal & member states is around $3 billion, of which only $1 billion is domestic revenue from taxes. $3 billion in domestic revenue is the theoretical ceiling until conflict ends and the whole country is under the territorial sovereignty of one government.
