After more than a year of delays, violence and uncertainty - Somalia is ready to vote for its next president.
The original plan was to hold a one-person one-vote election for the first time in 50 years.
But security concerns, as well as legal and financial realities make that difficult.
Instead, Somalia's parliament will pick the president.
So what does this election mean for a nation facing several challenges?
