Somalia is a country located in the Horn of Africa, bordered by Ethiopia to the west, Djibouti to the northwest, the Gulf of Aden to the north, the Indian Ocean to the east, and Kenya to the southwest. It has a long history of conflict and political instability, dating back to the collapse of its government in the early 1990s. Since then, the country has struggled with a variety of issues, including civil war, terrorism, and drought. In 2012, the Federal Government of Somalia was established, but it has faced challenges in consolidating its authority and providing basic services to the population. Somalia is also home to a number of regional and clan-based armed groups, which have at times been involved in fighting with the government and with each other. The country has a large diaspora community, many of whom have left due to the ongoing conflict and instability. Somalia's economy is largely based on agriculture, with livestock being the main export. The country also has some limited natural resources, including uranium and oil. However, these resources have not been fully developed due to the ongoing conflict and lack of investment. In recent years, Somalia has made some progress in addressing its security and political challenges, including through international assistance and efforts to build capacity within its security forces. However, the country remains fragile and faces a number of ongoing challenges, including the threat of terrorism and the need to address issues of poverty and development.
