Morocco, Arabic Al Maghrib, the Maghreb countries. Its capital is Rabat.
Morocco is bordered to the north by the Mediterranean Sea, on the west by the Atlantic Ocean, to the south by Mauritania beyond the Western Sahara and on the east by Algeria. Moroccan borders in the Sahara Desert are not clearly defined: since 1979, Morocco occupies the southern region of the Western Sahara (former Spanish Sahara), a territory claimed and occupied it in spite of the condemnation of the United Nations. The question of Western Sahara has poisoned relations between the Moroccan monarchy and the neighboring Republic of Algeria; it helps, however, to maintain a strong national cohesion.
Inherited from the Spanish part of the country colonization, the enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla are silhouetted on the Mediterranean coast of Morocco.
