Awdal, a region with a rich history and a legacy of great civilization, has long been home to the Samaroon people. The Samaroon are renowned today for their intellect and education, but they also once ruled over the powerful Adal Empire. The rulers of this empire, known as "UGAAS" in Somali, were instrumental in shaping the history and culture of the region. Throughout the history of the Adal Empire, there were 10 well-known UGAAS kings who governed the kingdom from the city of Zayla to as far as Harar, spanning across present-day Djibouti and Ethiopia. The Samaroon were not only rulers but also diplomats, with three brothers serving as Ambassadors to Ethiopia, Djibouti, and Somalia at one point in time.
One of the remarkable aspects of the Samaroon civilization was the development of their own alphabet known as "FAR GADABOURSI," showcasing their advanced level of sophistication and culture. The Samaroon also established strong trade relations with the Ottoman Empire in 1559, further highlighting their influence and significance in the region. However, as time passed, the aspirations of the Samaroon people faced challenges from Western colonizers who viewed their thriving civilization as a threat to their dominance. Despite their resilience, the Samaroon were gradually marginalized and pushed aside, leading to a decline in their cultural and political influence. Nevertheless, the people of the Awdal region refused to be subdued and decided to take matters into their own hands. Fueled by a sense of unity and determination, they embarked on a journey to reclaim their heritage and establish their own State. The time has come for Awdal State to rise once again and for its people to unite in solidarity. The revival of Awdal State symbolizes a beacon of hope for the Samaroon people and serves as a testament to their unwavering spirit and resilience. By honoring their past and embracing their cultural heritage, the people of Awdal are poised to embark on a new chapter of prosperity and progress.
As Awdal shines once more on the global stage, let us celebrate the legacy of the Samaroon people and their remarkable contributions to history. Through unity and perseverance, Awdal State stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of a people determined to reclaim their rightful place in the annals of civilization.
