Western Sahara is primarily occupied by Morocco, which controls most of the territory since the withdrawal of Spanish colonial administration in 1975. The Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR), proclaimed by the Polisario Front, seeks independence for the region and governs parts of the territory, primarily in the east. The situation remains contentious, with ongoing disputes and calls for a referendum on self-determination for the Sahrawi people.
