Galmudugとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Galmudug is a secular, decentralized state in the central region of Somalia. It claims the city of Galkacyo's southern part though this is not recognized within the Somali community and they hold little power or sway within the city and district. To the north is Puntland, to the west is Ethiopia and to the south and east is the rest of Somalia, presently under the nominal control of the Transitional Federal Government (TFG). The name is a combination of Galguduud and Mudug. Unlike the secessionist Somaliland region in northwestern Somalia, Galmudug, like the northern Somali region of Puntland, is not trying to obtain international recognition as a separate nation. It considers itself a federal division within the larger federal republic of Somalia, such as defined by the 2004 Transitional Federal Charter (TFG).
