Jubaland, Federal member state in southern Somalia

Jubaland extends over 110,293 square kilometers along the Jubba River, from Dolow to the Indian Ocean, with Kismayo serving as its capital.

The territory transferred from British control to Italian administration in 1925, becoming part of Italian Somaliland during the colonial period in East Africa.

The regional population consists of multiple Somali clans, including Ogaden-Darod, Maheran-Darod, Sheekhaal, Coormale, Biimaal, and Bantu communities.

The region maintains transportation links through Kismayo Airport and Bardera Airport, facilitating connections for trade and regional movement.

The area generates income through the port of Kismayo, which handles significant maritime trade and supports local fishing industries.
