How to spot Morocco from satellite imagery
Morocco covers roughly 446,000 square kilometres in the northwestern corner of Africa, bounded by the Mediterranean to the north, the Atlantic to the west, Algeria to the east, and the disputed Western Sahara to the south. The country has one of the most varied geographies in North Africa, containing within its borders the snow-capped High Atlas mountains, the southern reaches of the Sahara, the Mediterranean Rif coast, the fertile Atlantic plains, and a 1,800-kilometre Atlantic coastline.
For geography games, Morocco is a high-value country to learn because each of its regions has a distinctive aerial signature and the country appears regularly in any global rotation. This guide walks through the cues that lock Morocco in fast.
