Somalia
Somalia, officially the Federal Republic of Somalia is a sovereign country in the Horn of Africa. It is 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. Somalia has the longest coastline on Africa's mainland. Its terrain consists mainly of plateaus, plains, and highlands. Hot conditions prevail year-round, with periodic monsoon winds and irregular rainfall.
Most of the interesting mineral localities of Somalia are located in the northern part, in what is now the new country (or more precisely a self-declared state internationally recognised as an autonomous region of Somalia) of Somaliland (see https://www.mindat.org/loc-26590.html)).
Note: in about 1982 Somalia was reorganized from eight provinces into sixteen regions.
