which is used in for example fertilizers? Learn about Polisario, the
national liberation movement aiming to end Moroccan presence in the
Western Sahara, and their liberation struggle. About fish and other
natural resources of Western Sahara, the Moroccan military wall in
Western Sahara, the greatest functional military barrier in the world,
violations of trade agreements between the EU and Morocco and recent

knowledge about Western Sahara!
