==Overview==
Awdal (أودال) takes its name from the medieval Adal Sultanate (عَدَال), which was originally centered in Zeila. The area along the Ethiopian border is abundant with ruined cities, which were described by the British explorer Richard F. Burton.〔Richard Burton, ''First Footsteps in East Africa'', 1856; edited with an introduction and additional chapters by Gordon Waterfield (New York: Praeger, 1966), p. 132. For a more recent description, see A. T. Curle, "The Ruined cities of Somaliland", ''Antiquity'', 11 (1937), pp. 315-327〕
A modern separatist movement, known as the Awdal Republic, sought independence in 1995 after the establishment of Somaliland. A Dir-dominated movement in Awdal province also threatens to form its own administration if the secessionist Somaliland region's self-declared independence is officially recognized.
