Britain made no protection treaty with the Dhulbahante. [fact]

The 'Haber Garhajis' are an alliance of two separate northern Somali clans, the Habar Yunis and 'Idagalle. Eastern clans with whom Britain concluded a protectorate treaty were the Haber Tol Ja'lo; the Warsangeli; and the Majerteyn. The Majerteyn eventually fell within the Italian sphere. The Dulbahante clan to the east of what became the British Somalilland Protectorate was not included in the protectorate treaties.
