The Western Sahara Capitalized as LAAYOUNE is a desert situated in the North of Africa between the lands of Morocco, Algeria and Mauritania,these people are Nubians just like the people of Morocco.
Western Sahara was a land occupied by nomadic people known as the SAHARAWI, for some reason the harsh desert temperatures were not a negative factor instead they had camels and grew crops (This has made me appreciate mother Africa even more because she still gave food to her children so that they live in harmony). historically, there were no political parties instead there were tribes and each tribe had a chief that rules over it. Suddenly the Spanish came into the land just as they did with Morocco and the chiefs gave away their authority and slowly through time the tribes of Western Sahara faded.
THE SCARS OF GREED
Due to Spain being in the land, war was certainly intense to an extent that the neighboring countries (Morocco, Algeria and Mauritania) got involved. Spain wanted to colonize the Saharawi people but they resisted and that resistance resulted in a blood bath between the two nations. Finally the war against Spain was finally won; but that did not mean the neighboring countries backed off from wanting the piece of that flourishing desert. What is with all this greed, I mean everyone has a share of this earth; it is not too big or too small there is absolutely no reason to take something from someone by force and manipulation. Western Saharan people will not recover from the trauma of
Spanish rule (I guess time doesn't heal all wounds because the scars still remain).
To my surprise Morocco own 1/3 of Western Sahara in the Northern part and Mauritania owns a 1/3 on the Southern part. It's either Africans have learnt the game of greed or the hand of the Spanish was ruling afar and beyond using Mauritania and Morocco.
ACCEPTABLE SPIRAL OF CONFUSION
History was unkind to the sons and daughters of Kush, what is considered norm became strange, and what was strange became the norm; I mean let us reason for a bit, every country has one currency and the men are the ones fighting the battle BUT Western Sahara has 3 currencies Algerian Dinar , Moroccan Dirham and Mauritanian Ouguiya and the women! Yes the beautifully created women of Western Sahara march to the battle fields with guns to fight, it doesn't mean that women have been fighting since the Spanish invasion but due to bloody battles in time men have fallen hence the women on the front line. This was devastating for the country and is still is, since some of us have tasted freedom, the Western Saharan people will only dream of freedom it is only a matter of time before God answers their plea.
A BRUISED HOPE
Regardless of the division the three neighboring countries brought, most of the Saharan people fled to Tindouf in the Hamada desert and they are still reside there in our time. The UN has mediated for the Saharan people by sending aid and peace troops to stabilize it, still to no success, war and poverty is the daily activity of the Western Sahara even though it was declared the SAHARAWI ARABIC DEMOCRATIC REPLUBLIC.
The nation gets their food form the UN, gets their shelter from the UN, gets their protection from the UN and gets their hope in the UN. Now that is proof enough to see and know that this country is scared until the end of this present age.
THE JOYS OF BEING A NUBIAN IN THE WESTERN SAHARAN
The Nubian people of the Western Sahara do fish (since it is a good source of protein), They mine phosphate since it is abundant there, They have soulful singers who sing from the gut of pain and anguish. But my favourite thing to know about this country is that the food is strange but tasty (Lamb and camel stew) who knew that a desert could flourish with life.
When you say your prayers at night, eat your decadent meals, shop for expensive beautiful items; remember the Arabic/Spanish nation in the North Side of Africa. Yield them in your prayers and accept them as Nubians.
JAH IS LOOKING UPON YOU WESTERN SAHARA AND YOUR TEARS ARE NOT IN VAIN
