Use as a legal precedent for Somaliland
[edit]Today's re-established Somaliland functions as a de facto independent state and regards itself as the legal successor to the Republic of Somaliland.[1][2] However, unlike the former Republic of Somaliland, it has not gained widespread diplomatic recognition as a country, instead being treated as an autonomous region within Somalia.[3][4]
