Warning over 18 years, disturbing images!!!The Empire in AfricaSierra Leone 20051808 wurde die Halbinsel formell zur britischen Kronkolonie erklrt. Fast ein Jahrhundert spter und etwa elf Jahre nach der berhmten Berliner Kongokonferenz zur Aufteilung Afrikas im Jahre 1885 wurde das Hinterland 1896 als britisches Protektorat deklariert. Kurz danach, in dem sogenannten Hut-Tax-War von 1898, erhoben sich die lokalen Frsten unter der Fhrung von Bai Bureh und Kai Lundu gegen das britische Protektorat. Etwa sechzig Jahre nach dem Protektoratsabkommen erhielt das Land 1958 die innere Selbstverwaltung und wurde drei Jahre spter, am 27. April 1961, ein politisch unabhngiger Staat innerhalb des Commonwealth. Nach Militrputschen 1967 und 1968 wurde 1971 die Republik ausgerufen.Nach einem Jahrzehnt blutigen Brgerkrieges ist das Land seit 2000 mit seinem Wiederaufbau und der Aufarbeitung der jngeren Geschichte beschftigt. Das Land zhlt weiterhin zu den rmsten Lndern der Welt und nahm beim Human Development Index 2010 den 158. Platz (von 169) ein.Etwa 64% der Einwohner sind Analphabeten. Whrend des Brgerkrieges wurden ber 1270 Schulen zerstrt und 2001 besuchten nur rund 33% der Schulpflichtigen die Schule.Die Lebenserwartung von Frauen liegt bei 49 Jahren, die der Mnner bei 48 Jahren. Die Suglingssterblichkeit betrgt 158 pro 1.000 Geburten, die Mttersterblichkeit 2.100 pro 100.000 Geburten.Etwa 50.000 bis 200.000 Sierra-Leoner (anderen Angaben zufolge 20.000) kamen im Brgerkrieg um, weitere wurden zu Binnenvertriebenen oder flohen in die benachbarten Lnder.Die RUF machte es sich zum Markenzeichen, bei berfllen auf Drfer Zivilisten die Gliedmaen abzutrennen. Als Folge dieser Vorgehensweise gibt es etwa 20.000 Amputees.Das Land ist reich an Bodenschtzen wie Bauxit, Braunkohle, Chrom, Diamanten, Eisenerz, Gold, Graphit, Columbit, Mangan, Molybdn, Platin, Rutil (Titanoxid) und Rhodium.Etwa 70 % der Bevlkerung lebt in extremer Armut und muss mit weniger als einem US-Dollar am Tag auskommen. Die ehemalige britische Kolonie belegt seit Jahren den letzten Platz auf der Liste des Entwicklungsprogramms der Vereinten Nationen, gleichbedeutend mit dem Status des am wenigsten entwickelten von 179 untersuchten Lndern (siehe auch Least Developed Countries).Haupthandelspartner(Plnderer) sind Belgien, Grobritannien, die USA, die Niederlande und Deutschland.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3Y-pbCjbAo&feature=player_embedded

Somalia is The Land of Punt:Land of Myrrh and Frankincense.HomeLand of The PharaohsHistory : Again the representations of the early Puntites, or Somali people, on the Egyptian monuments, show striking resemblances to the Egyptians themselves. By Brian Brown New York: Brentano's[1923] In "The Making of Egypt" (1939). Petrie states that the Land of Punt was "sacred to the Egyptians as the source of their race" : ""The Egyptians sometimes called Punt land Ta-Netjeru, meaning "Land of the Gods," and considered it their place of origin ." (Richard Pankhurst, The Ethiopian Borderlands:1997) "The King Sahure (2458-2446 B.C.) from this Egyptian Old Kingdom, Dynasty V (2498-2491 B.C.) made a trade expedition to the Land of Punt . Egyptian ships also reached the shores of the land of Punt on the Somali coast to procure highly valued cargoes of myrrh, ebony and animals, among other goods. " Text Reference: The UNESCO General History of Africa: Ancient Civilization of Africa, Vol, II, General History of Africa, G. Mokhtar, 1990, p 64-68 .The greek historian Diodorus of Sicily in his book "Universal history "said that in 6th century before-J-Christ , because of a political crisis in Egypt and the euro-asiatics's infiltrations in Egypt , more than 200 thousands of ancient-egyptians migrated in the south of the Nile in the direction of Ethiopia ,North/East Africa (Now, Soudan, Somalia ,Djibouti,Ethiopia ...). This last historical fact can explain why the somali language is a survived ancient-egyptian language ,according to the british linguist :"The language of ancient Egyptbelonged to the Hamitic group; Surviving Hamitic languages are spoken across a large part of North Africa and include Somali." (The english language ,A Historical Introduction," by Charles Barber .)Even, the genetic research prove that the Somali DNA is originally from Egypt : Haplogroup E1b1b1a (V68) :19th century before J-Christ : Place of origin : Egypt and northern Soudan . Extract of the research : More recently, Tillmar et al. (2009) typed 147 males from Somalia for 12 Y-STR loci, and observed that 77% (113/147) had typical E1b1b1a1b haplotypes. This is currently the highest frequency of E1b1b1a1b found in any single sample population.Similarly, Hassan et al. (2008) in their study observed this to be the most common of the sub-clades of E-M78 found in Sudan, especially among the Beja, Masalit and Fur. The Beja, like Somalis and Oromos, speak an Afro-Asiatic language and live along the "corridor" from Egypt to the Horn of Africa.)"Egyptian-Somali Vocabulary:"The language of ancient Egypt belonged to the Hamitic group...Surviving Hamitic languages are spoken across a large part of North Africa and include Somali." (The english language ,A Historical Introduction," by the british historian and linguist Charles Barber .) 1) In ancient-egyptian language "Hes" = song,sing with musical instrument / in somali language :" Hees"= song,sing with musical instrument.2) "AAR" means "Lion" in both languages .3) "Usha" means "Scepter" in both languages .4)In Somali-Egyptian" Shub" means a)"pour out , " b) construction made of concrete .5) In Somali-Egyptian languages :"Sekedseked" means " Redoubling of the building blocks ,Stacked building blocks or something else .6) In Egyptian-Somali :Neter/Neder (divine being) Hipo/Hibo (it means "gift" and the sound "p"it is not mainly used in Hamitic languages ): Heru/Huur (a stork) : Tuf/Tuf (spit) : Habi (the Nile)/ Habi,Abi (source of water,to drink ,give him drink ) Wabi ( a river) ; Kab/kab (shoe) brq/biriq (lightning) :"Qbb/Qaboob (cold,cool,fresh ): 'ayah/dayah (moon) ; dab/dab (fire) anka/aniga (pronoun "I" ): su,asu/usi (he) ; Ka,Kaah /Ka,Kaah (Him,the man's appearance, spirit,vital essence,) ; Xi/Ki (a such ) ; Hati,Hat/Haat,Haati (widen wings,flying birds) ; medu/muud (liquid), Hoo/Hoo (to offer ) , Gundhate ,Gunti/Gundhate ,Gunti (loincloth) ,Maanta/Maanta (today,morning ); Kaua/Kaw (standard number one ,1,first ) ; NefNefi/NefNef,Neef (respiration,breath ), (R,Horakhty /Rh, Horrahthy (the Sun)In Ancient-egyptian "R" is the sun-god / in Somali "Qor-Rah" means the "neck of Rah ,sun-god .
