Garadag

Garadag (Somali: Gar Adag, Arabic: جردج) is a key town in the Sanaag region of Somaliland.

[2] Garadag was founded in 1934 and is located northwest of Xudun and east by road from War Idaad.

One of the main Landmarks of the town is "Geedka Garadag", a famous tree under which numerous peace meetings or shirs have taken place over the years.

[4][5] In November 1992, a peace conference by Habr Je'lo, Dhulbahante, Warsangali and Gahayle was held in Garadag.

Habar Yoonis did not participate in this conference, which is one of the causes of the later clan conflict.
