History and specifics[]
Home to the ancient Somali civilization, Somalia fell into civil war, lawlessness, and anarchy following the collapse of its central government in the early 1990s, continuing into the early 21st century.
In October 2264, Special Forces of the United States of Africa were operating in Somalia, based in the small harbor city of Obbia. (TOS - Star Trek II Short Stories short story: "Under Twin Moons")
By the 24th century, Somalia had fully recovered and become part of the African Confederation, a division of the Federation Member State of United Earth, and the Somali capital, Mogadishu, had become a prosperous metropolis. (TNG novel: Losing the Peace)
