Morocco's northern half is shown on the front side of the print map and
includes the cities of Tangier, Tetouan, Fez, Rabat, Casablanca, and
Marrakesh. The reverse side of the map covers the southern portion of
the country and includes a large inset map of Western Sahara.
The Kingdom of Morocco is a part of the Maghreb region of North Africa
that includes Tunisia, Algeria, Mauritania, and Libya with which it
shares historical, cultural, and linguistic ties. Primarily a nation of
farmers, the country is dominated by the Atlas Mountains that separate
the fertile coastal regions from the harsh Sahara. These high, rugged
mountains helped protect Morocco from colonization until the early 20th
century when the French and Spanish brought their influence to the
Islamic region.
Every Adventure Map is printed on durable synthetic paper, making them
waterproof, tear-resistant and tough -- capable of withstanding the
rigors of international travel.
