Hmm[edit]
Per List of colonial governors of French Somaliland, this page seems to be misrepresenting the actual name of the colony for most of its existence. Which page is wrong? — LlywelynII 17:32, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
Sultanate of Tadjoura[edit]
Just found today that there was apparently a sultanate based in Tadjoura before the French colonised Djibouti. Should this country be the predecessor of French Somaliland. http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/dj-sult.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.106.142.1 (talk) 12:45, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
French Coast of the Somalis!?[edit]
I've read quite a bit about the history of the Somalie française, or the Côte française des Somalis (official). In English, it is called either French Somaliland or, less often, the Somali Coast. I've never come across this "French Coast of the Somalis"! Why on earth can someone be allowed to singlehandedly make such a nonsensical change?
This uncalled-for move should be reversed.--Lubiesque (talk) 12:37, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
French treaty with Issa[edit]
@Buufin: This is the photocopy of the treaty the French signed with Issa and their thumb prints, it is from the French National Archives, can you please bring the same thing for the Isaaq and Gadabuursi if any exists. http://anom.archivesnationales.culture.gouv.fr/osd/?dossier=/collection/INVENTAIRES/Ministeres/COL/Traites/&first=40COL_846a896/FRANOM60_40COL_D877_001&last=40COL_846a896/FRANOM60_40COL_D877_005&title=Trait%C3%A9+avec+les+chefs+Issas+qui+commandent+sur+le+territoire+situ%C3%A9+au+Gubbet+Kharab+et+jusqu%27au-del%C3%A0+d%27Ambaddo.+Accord+additionnel+26+mars+1885,+31+ao%C3%BBt+1917
