Comment
After the collapse of the government of Somalia in the 1990's, the northern portion of the country, once known as British Somaliland, declared independence. Despite the lack of international recognition, it has one of the better functioning governments in Africa.Interesting fact
The Acinonyx Jubatus, also known as the cheetah, is the fastest land animal on Earth, capable of reaching speeds of up to 70 miles per hour (113 kilometers per hour). This makes it an impressive feature on the 5 Shillings coin from Somaliland, highlighting the country's rich wildlife and natural beauty.
