The Kingdom of Morocco

The Kingdom of Morocco is a country located in North Africa with a population of nearly 32 million and an area of 447,000 square kilometres. Its capital is Rabat, and its largest city is Casablanca.
The area of present-day Morocco has been inhabited since 8000 BC. The full Arabic name al-Mamlaka al-Maġribiyya translates to "The Western Kingdom". The Latinized name "Morocco" originates from medieval Latin "Morroch", which referred to the name of the former Almoravid and Almohad capital, Marrakech.The word "Marrakech" is presumably derived from the Berber word Mur-Akush, meaning Land of God.

Morocco has a coast on the Atlantic Ocean that reaches past the Strait of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean Sea. It is bordered by Algeria to the east, Spain to the north (a water border through the Strait and land borders with three small Spanish enclaves, Ceuta, Melilla, and Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera), and Mauritania to the south via its Western Saharan territories.

Morocco is the only country in Africa that is not currently a member of the African Union.
