African Entrepreneurship Record

This is East Africa's modest contribution to world peace, but the negative consequences of the easing of social conflicts in Europe have not disappeared, but have been transferred to Africa.

Especially in the South African region, East Africa has introduced a large number of people, which has resulted in a sharp increase in East Africa's national power and fierce competition with other forces in South Africa.

With its population advantage, East Africa has no disadvantages. This is also the fundamental reason why this war broke out. East Africa is too powerful, so other forces must unite to eliminate the "heresy" of East Africa.

If East Africa is not stopped, other countries on the entire African continent will have to survive under East Africa's nose in the future. The worst result will be the emergence of an African version of the United States.

…

The city of Dire Dawa in the northern tip of East Africa.

British Somaliland is one of the neighbors of Dire Dawa in East Africa, but there is little contact between the two sides.

It's not because of the hostile relationship between the two countries, but because there is a large desert area between them. Only Arab caravans occasionally bring camels through this "dangerous" area, maintaining the traditional customs for thousands of years. Commercial trade routes.

But Dire Dawa was only a transit point for them to go to the former Abyssinian Empire. Now Dire Dawa is under the control of East Africa and has little influence on them.

Since the opening of Dire Dawa, this trade route, which had been interrupted for several years, has regained its former glory.

This place has transformed from a trading stop in the past to a prosperous commercial market. Somaliland, East Africa, Italian Red Sea Colonies, and French Somalia (Djibouti) form an intersection market here.

Although British Somalia is now a British colony, the local residents are not British, but native Arabs, so commercial trade has never been interrupted. The poor relationship between Britain and East Africa cannot change the local lifestyle.

Of course, a few years ago, Dire Dawa was still a military fortress. The Arabs could only move to the harsher climate in the northern part of Dire Dawa to maintain trade routes. In those years, the Arabs in Somaliland had great complaints about East Africa. , the level of hatred is only slightly lower than that of the British who colonized Somaliland and the French next door.

Whether it is British Somaliland, the Magirtin Sultanate in the northeast (located in the northern part of the Somali region of East Africa, the last traditional independent Somali kingdom in the east of British Somaliland), French Somalia, or the Somali region of East Africa, they were originally It is a place where Somalis live.

Britain, France, and East Africa are all invaders to them, but the Somalis in East Africa have long since "disappeared", and the main residents of the British and French colonies are still Somalis.

Fortunately, pan-Somali nationalism has not risen. Otherwise, there would be many overseas Somali forces that would become enemies of East Africa under the banner of "national revivalism."

Now there is only one Magirtine Sultanate hiding and trembling on the tip of the Horn of East Africa. With this position, it will be colonized or annexed by other countries sooner or later. It is only a matter of time. Historically, it was Italy that ended the life of this country, but Nowadays, Italy's strength is far less than in its previous life, and it is mainly dominated by Red Sea colonies (Eritrea and parts of Ethiopia). It seems that it is unable to annex this true Horn of Africa country.

The United Kingdom and East Africa are not very interested in the Magirtine Sultanate, or it may be that the two sides are restrained by each other and cannot concentrate on dealing with the Magirtine Sultanate. The Magirtine Sultanate is a blessing in disguise, but as long as East Africa and the United Kingdom The balance between them in Africa is broken, and the winner will wipe this "eyesore" country off the map.

Of course, these contradictions and conflicts do not affect the trading activities of local Arabs. Somalis are also a type of Arabs, because Arabs are a religious and cultural force. As long as there is a strong core, they can live together in one country. of.

This is much more effective than "white supremacy". There are various races and ethnicities in the Arab cultural circle, and it is actually much more inclusive than Europe.

Of course, this will not offset East Africa's hostility to the "black" Arabs in Somalia. At present, most of the pure black indigenous people have been wiped out in East Africa.

Countries with a high degree of mixed race, such as the Abyssinian Empire and the Magirtine Sultanate, are still barely acceptable in East Africa.

Today, the Arab caravan brought news to the East African garrison in Dire Dawa: a group of British warships entered British Somaliland to rest.

Morse, the top military commander in East Africa in Dire Dawa, believes that this tidbit should be taken seriously.

"The British Royal Navy docked in British Somaliland is very likely to be part of the Mediterranean Fleet, or it may come from India, but it is definitely not good news for us. After all, they have never been to Somaliland."

"British Somaliland is an important military base for the United Kingdom to maintain its Red Sea region and guard the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. From a geographical location, I prefer that they come from the Mediterranean Fleet. If it is the British Royal Navy in the Indian region, they should go there. Seychelles, rather than detouring through British Somaliland, of course, assuming that Britain is prepared to go to war with us." Morse's aide-de-camp said.

"Anyway, it is unlikely that they are coming for our city of Dire Dawa. Dire Dawa City has no role for Britain unless they want to go deep into the hinterland of East Africa through land. But with Egypt as an option, there is no such possibility at all, even if it is not involved. Egypt, these lobster soldiers will only attack from the northeastern coast of East Africa."

"This is the navy, so it most likely has nothing to do with us, but this news should be notified to the General Staff in time. After all, under the current situation, any disturbance may involve national defense and security issues."

Ordinary people in East Africa don't know it yet, but everyone within the East African army already knows that there may be a war between East Africa and Britain.

The troops in the four directions of East Africa, the southeast, northwest and borders have received the news, and the garrison in Dire Dawa, which is a neighbor of British Somaliland, is naturally no exception.

Therefore, Colonel Morse said: "No matter what the purpose of the British fleet is, we should not take it lightly. Let our people be alert, especially the patrol team. They must search carefully along the edge of the desert in the northwest direction. If there is any emergency, Report in time. From now on, all the garrison troops in Dire Dawa City must enter a state of combat readiness, and their firearms and artillery must be inspected and maintained to maintain a combat posture at all times."

"At the same time, a report was sent to the Northern Military District to inform the British Navy of the large-scale presence in British Somalia."

The Northern Military District basically included most of Somalia, parts of Kenya and Ethiopia in the previous life, namely the five provinces of Juba, Northern and Turkana, South Prussia and Oriental Province in East Africa.

In fact, according to the current location and area on the map of East Africa, it is more appropriate to call it the Northeast Military Region, which corresponds to the Nile Military Region in northwest East Africa, which also has five provinces.

However, the Northern Military Region is stronger, including the two newly formed "Dragoon" divisions in East Africa, which belong to the military establishment of the Northern Military Region.

At the same time, Mogadishu is also the northern home port of the East African Navy. Although the coastline in Somalia is long, there are only a few usable ports, so Mogadishu has the best conditions and becomes the only choice.
