Esempi
Recent events are raising questions about Djibouti's stability, as some Afars have revolted on the grounds of what they claim to be an Issa domination of the state.
Afar have a traditional preference for patrilateral cross-cousin marriage; the Issa and other Somalis are less strict.
In traditional Afar and Issa beliefs, shaped by the continuity of patrilineal ideology, the soul of a deceased rejoins the ancestors, who are occasionally appealed to by the living descendants.
All in all, Issa pieces are unique and definitely worth the second glance.
However, the Issas presently dominate the government, civil service, and the ruling party, a situation that has bred resentment and political competition between the Somali Issas and the Afars.
