The Gadabuursi Ughazate or Ugasate (Somali: Ugaasyada ama Boqortooyada Gadabuursi, Amharic: የገዳቡርሲ አለቆች) evolved from and was a successor kingdom to the Adal Sultanate and Sultanate of Harar.[1] The first Ughaz (Ugaas) of this successor kingdom, Ali Makail Dera (Cali Makayl-Dheere) was the son of Makail Dera, the progenitor of the Makayl-Dheere.[2] During the late 19th century, as the region became subject to colonial rule, the Ughaz assumed a more traditional and ceremonial leadership of the clan.[2] The Gadabuursi give their King the title of Ughaz.[3] It's an authentic Somali term for King or Sultan. The Gadabuursi in particular are one of the clans with a long tradition of the institution of Sultan.[4]
