Saharan Arab Democratic Republic |
0.01 sec. |
Saharan Arab Democratic RepublicDisputed territory of Western Sahara occupied by Morocco. It was a Spanish colony from c. 1884 to 1976. After Spain left, native Saharawi guerrillas (see Polisario) based in Algeria declared a government-in-exile and fought Morocco and Mauritania for control. Mauritania made peace in 1979, whereupon Morocco claimed the whole territory. A referendum on whether the territory will remain part of Morocco or become independent has been repeatedly postponed.
