By a singular entity.

Just as legitimate as the Luhansk and Donetsk Republics were when they were ‘recognized’ by Russia.

Who cares?  😇

Somaliland was once a British protectorate, then briefly an independent state in 1960.

Somaliland seceded from Somalia in 1991 - & has built a functioning independent state from the ground up.

Bram, that will take a while.

South Sudan was also part of the British Empire as well - but it isn't yet part of the British Commonwealth, because of the conflicts in that country.

Buenos Días, Somalilandia todavía no fue reconocido, como estado soberano, por la gran mayoría del mundo. Somalia sigue reclamando ese sector como parte integrante de su territorio (Biafra, en la década de 1960, nunca logró ser reconocida por las Naciones Unidas y luego volvió a reincorporarse a Nigeria). ¡Saludos a todos!

Kosovo is more independent than Somaliland, yet Kosovo isn't independent.

I regret to inform you all that Israel’s recognition of Somaliland’s so-called sovereignty is solely for the purpose of facilitating military strikes against Yemen’s Houthi rebels via this channel; there is no such thing as so-called international recognition in this act, but merely a blatant quid pro quo of interests.

Both Kosovo & Somaliland are independent countries.

Kosovo uses the Euro, as does Montenegro.

I think the best description for both is that they are a de facto independent country. Kosovo is more legitimate than Somaliland though.

Both countries are legitimate.

Somaliland was once part of the British Empire as British Somaliland.

Legitimate?. The Serbs would disagree. 

Yes, they would, but purely strictly based on number of recognitions, the statement holds. On Numista, there is nothing to change for now.
