Regions & Boundaries map data for Morocco

Regions & Boundaries map data provides a geographic breakdown of Morocco for visualisation and analysis purposes. Using GIS or mapping software, colours can be assigned to these regions to form a thematic map, also known as a choropleth map. Thematic maps are visually powerful and a simple but effective way to communicate a variable (e.g. sales figures) across a geographic area. Regions can be political/administrative, postcode or small areas often connected with a census. With seamless transitions across borders with neighbouring countries, this data product is ideal for international projects.

Further enabling geographic analysis, Regions & Boundaries for Morocco can also be supplemented with statistics such as socio-demographics, purchasing power and consumer profiles. This product is available in a number of popular GIS data formats.

Country Summary

The Kingdom of Morocco is situated in the far north-west of Africa, in the Maghreb region. It has coastline along both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea and shares land borders with Algeria and Western Sahara, and claims several islands off its coast. The capital city is Rabat.
The only north African nation to escape Ottoman domination and ruled by familial dynasties for centuries, Morocco’s position so close to Europe and at the mouth of the Mediterranean Sea was strategically important. In 1912 it was recognised as so useful to France and Spain that they divided the country into protectorates. By 1956, however, Morocco had regained its independence and reunified. Although relatively stable, Morocco is still in dispute over the territory of Western Sahara. Morocco claims two-thirds of the country and despite efforts to reach resolution, the issue of sovereignty remains disputed. It is now run as a unitary semi-constitutional monarchy and is divided into twelve regions.
Morocco boasts one of the largest economies in Africa. Whilst the agriculture sector is the largest employer, the service sector is by far the largest contributor economically. Crops include cereals and high-quality fruit and olives for export. Industry comprises mining, construction and manufacturing, but tourism is a huge earner for Morocco, which is one of the most visited countries in Africa.
Demographically, Morocco is a young country with a population that is becoming increasingly urbanised - currently around 65% of the people live in or around cities. The majority of citizens have Arab-Berber heritage. The official languages are Arabic and Berber.
Culturally, Morocco has an extremely rich heritage, with influences from the Arab world, Africa and Europe. Stunning Moorish architecture and art act as the backdrops for many places. Music and literature have characteristics from all elements of Morocco’s heritage, and its cuisine is very diversified. The national sport is soccer.
On the world stage Morocco is a member of the United Nations and the African Union.
