The Kingdom of Morocco is a coastal Arabian country in the northwest part of Africa, borders Algeria respectively in the east and southeast, closely neighbors Western Sahara in the south, adjacent to the Atlantic in the west and faces Spain and Portugal in the north across the sea.

In 1979, Morocco occupied Western Sahara, but its rights in Western Sahara had not been recognized by any international countries, while the League of Arab States explicitly recognized that Western Sahara was part of Morocco's territory. Morocco considers its bordering area of Ceuta and Melilla to be its territory, but the two regions were actually governed by Spain.

In addition to Arabic, there are many local languages in Morocco, and French and Spanish are used simultaneously.
