Somaliland is a self-declared sovereign state in the Horn of Africa, internationally considered to be part of Somalia.
In the late 19th century the British empire established the colonies of British Somaliland. Italian occupation lasted until 1941, when a British military administration took over. In 1949 Italian Somaliland became a United Nations Trusteeship under Italian administration.The two regions united on 1 July 1960 to form the independent Somali Republic.On 18 May 1991 the former British Somaliland unilaterally declared independence from Somalia.
Copyright in British Somaliland was covered by the 1911 Copyright Act, which was superseded by the Copyright Act 1956. Italian laws covered Italian Somaliland.These two sets of laws remained in force in the respective regions until the Somali Democratic Republic passed the first Copyright Law, Law No. 66 of 7 September 1977, which repealed the contrary provisions of the 1956 act.[1]The 1977 law does not appear to have been widely used or enforced, and it is unclear whether it is relevant to the breakaway state of Somaliland.[1]
