The former Spanish Sahara, an arid land known as Western Sahara, was annexed my Morocco in 1976.
Morocco attacked Algeria in October of 1963 because France had annexed portions of Morocco to Algeria. About 350 people died, but Morocco gave up and no territorial changes were made.
Yes ! there are deserts in South Morocco . Most of the south east portion of the country is in Sahara Desert , so the population of this part is less populated . In the south there is the Western Sahara Desert , a former Spanish colony that was annexed by Morocco in 1975 . Morocco claims that the Western Sahara is part of its territory and refers to that as its Southern Province .
Morocco, I think. Hope this helps! ;)
Mouhssine El Badaoui was born on May 30, 1976, in Casablanca, Morocco.
The people of Western Sahara declared independence in 1976 in a small hamlet called Bir Lehlu. At that time Morocco tried to occupy the territory. In 1991 a ceasefire was reached between Morocco and the independence movement POLISARIO, monitored by a UN peace mission called MINURSO.

Morocco discovered Morocco
Morocco gained independence from France on 7 April 1956 and negotiated with Spain from 1956 to 1958 for the control of Spanish areas. Southern Spanish enclaves were integrated into Morocco in 1969 but there remains no resolution on the status of the western Sahara area which Morocco annexed in the 1975 with the Green March.

No. Morocco is a country. Morocco has a capital: Rabat.
You have to define what a Muslim land is. Moroccans claim that the Spanish cities of Ceuta and Melilla are part of the territorial integrity of Morocco. Spain responds that it has controlled both of those cities since 1497, before the creation of the Alouite Dynasty in Morocco (in the 1600s) and before even the annexation of Navarre (in 1515). As a result, they are historically Spanish lands, not Moroccan lands. (Whether Moroccan lands are Muslim lands is itself a more involved question of how you "Islamify" a piece of land, but let's avoid that for the moment.) Historically, Spain had colonies in Morocco (north Morocco, ruled from Tetouan, and south Morocco, ruled from Ifni) and controlled Western Sahara (called Rio de Oro at that time). Both of these areas have majority-Muslim populations. Spain handed over control of north Morocco and most of South Morocco in 1956 to Morocco at France's request. Spain gave up Ifni itself after the Ifni War with Morocco and international pressure in 1969. Spain gave Rio de Oro independence in 1975 after which it was promptly annexed by Morocco in the "Green March".
