Year: 1960
Proclamation of Independence (1° Luglio 1960)
On July 1, 1960, the Trust Territory of Somalia officially achieved full sovereignty, uniting immediately with the newly independent State of Somaliland to establish the Somali Republic. This milestone concluded the ten-year United Nations trusteeship administration (AFIS) and fulfilled the aspirations of the Somali national movement. To commemorate the birth of the new republic, the postal authorities issued this definitive commemorative stamp, marking a triumphant moment in the broader "Year of Africa" decolonization wave across the continent.
