Somali Democratic Republic
The Somali Democratic Republic (SDR) (Somali: Jamhuuriyadda Dimuqraadiga Soomaaliyeed; Arabic: الجمهورية الصومالية الديمقراطية; Italian: Repubblica Democratica Somala) was a communist state with a unitary system of government in Somalia that existed from 1969 to 1991. Established in October 1969, the Somali Democratic Republic emerged following a coup d'état led by Major General Siad Barre and the Somali military. Barre's administration and the Somali Revolutionary Socialist Party governed Somalia for the next 21 years and was characterised by modernisation efforts, the standardisation of the Somali language, and infrastructural projects.
