Why is somalia even allowed to exist? It literally only functions off piracy.

It was bloody, but it should have been left alone. When foreign governments intervened, they invited all kinds of resistance groups and jihadists to bring their hatred of the West to Somalia. The West did not mean for that to happen... they just wanted to stop the slaughter of civilian populations.

It took much of the country back at first. They moved their capital a couple times, if memory recalls, in order to centralize the nation better. Islamic resistance lost its unity and broke apart. This made several dangerous factions that both fought the Somali government and itself. One of these little shit-shows is now Al-Shabaab. 2008 got really bad for the government and the West lost faith in it as corruption became so rampant that lenders refused to aid the Transitional Government. It doomed Somalia horribly and made the current, Federal Government have a poor starting position among both the people of Somalia and the world community abroad. Much like this >>1999024 anon says, Somalia has almost no infrastructure to speak of after its civil war and Islamic terror wars.

It's allowed to exist because nobody else will take it. You think Ethiopia wants to take on millions of starving, extremist Muslims? How about Kenya? It's mainly a large badland area that has several self-governing groups who happen to all be called "Somalia"

Here is a good map from last year on Somalia. It's gotten worse now actually

They are a very militant people, so conquering or uniting them will be a daunting task for future governments... if they can keep their greedy hands out of the public funds.

Why won't the international community recognize Somaliland?

Time and time again, on men I shower kindness. If they are not satisfied, for them bedding I prepare and I invite them to slumber.
If they are as yet unsatisfied, the milk of Suub, the she-camel for them thrice I milk and to them I say"Come and drink."
If they are as yet unsatisfied the ram of the homestead and the stout he-goat for them I kill.
If they are as yet unsatisfied, the Aden plate with ghee for them I fill.
If they are as yet unsatisfied, a beauteous girl, complete with bridal home I offer.
If they are as yet unsatisfied, I set aside livestock which I add to the gift.
If they are as yet unsatisfied, I say "Oh brothers-in-law!" and heap salutations on them.
If they are as yet unsatisfied at dawn I prepare the bay horse and uttering the words "Praise be to the Prophet" the iron-shafted spear I put in their side and through their lungs. Only then are they satisfied.

Borders are sacrosant since WW2
No matter that its a functioning state, the UN insists that they return to Somalia (which strangely the good people of Somaliland dont find very appealing)
