Why is Somaliland a country in every way but name?

-
Somaliland is a self-declared state in the Horn of Africa. It has its own government, currency, and military. It has also held several democratic elections. However, Somaliland is not recognized as an independent country by any other country in the world.

There are several reasons why Somaliland has not been recognized as an independent country. One reason is that it is located in a region that is plagued by conflict. Somalia, the country that Somaliland broke away from, has been in a state of civil war for decades. Somaliland has been relatively peaceful, but it is still seen as a risky investment by many countries.

Another reason why Somaliland has not been recognized as an independent country is that it is not clear what its borders would be. Somaliland claims to include all of the territory that was part of the British Somaliland Protectorate, which was established in 1884. However, some of this territory is now controlled by Somalia.
Despite not being recognized as an independent country, Somaliland has been able to function as a state for over 20 years. It has a strong economy and a well-functioning government. It is also a member of the African Union and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development.
It is possible that Somaliland will eventually be recognized as an independent country. However, it is also possible that it will remain a self-declared state for many years to come.

History of the Nigerian Petroleum Industry

-
Oil was discovered in Nigeria in 1956 at Oloibiri in the Niger Delta after half a century of exploration. The discovery was made by Shell-BP, at the time the sole concessionaire. Nigeria joined the ranks of oil producers in 1958 when its first oil field came on stream producing 5,100 bpd. After 1960, exploration rights in onshore and offshore areas adjoining the Niger Delta were extended to other foreign companies. In 1965 the EA field was discovered by Shell in shallow water southeast of Warri. ​​ In 1970, the end of the Biafran war coincided with the rise in the world oil price, and Nigeria was able to reap instant riches from its oil production.
