Dhulbahante

A Somali tribe best known for having constituted the vast majority of the Darawiish. As a result of the Darawiish wars they lost territory, were decimated and were weakened; and as such are currently nicknamed Darwiishis or "Reer Darwiish". They are divided into 3 main branches: (1) M Garaad Ugaadhyahan (2) Farah Garaad (3) Bah Nugaaleed. They're called reer darawiish because the first capital (dareema caddo) and last (Taleh) were all in Dhulbahante land.
