Puntland is actually an autonomous region located in Somalia.
Have a read here;
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puntland .
Puntland should
NOT be listed as a country.

Confirming this is a fantasy coinage as Puntland, unlike Somaliland, is not a secessionist state.

Somaliland actually seceded from Somalia in 1991,as a result of a conflict that began in the late 1980's.
Somaliland is also a former British protectorate called the British Somaliland Protectorate;
