January 20, 1870.
Gledi Sultanate, Mogadishu.
Mogadishu, as it is called by the East African government, derives its name from Ancient Persian, while locals call it Hama and during the Ming Dynasty it was known as Mugudu Su. These three names highlight the city's long history and flourishing cultural exchanges.
Now this ancient city has been completely destroyed by the East Africans. Sivert launched an artillery attack here with over thirty cannons, and eventually, under the assault of more than three thousand East African soldiers, the strongest fortress of the Gledi Sultanate turned into a heap of ruins.
After the Battle of Mogadishu, the Gledi Sultanate was effectively declared fallen, as this was already the most populous area of the Sultanate.
The Gledi Sultanate has never been able to support a large population throughout history, not even Mogadishu, which mainly relies on pastoralism, making it difficult to develop agriculture.
