The Southern Provinces[a] or Moroccan Sahara[b] are the terms utilized by the Moroccan government to refer to the occupied territory[1][2] of Western Sahara. These designations encompass the entirety of Western Sahara, which spans three of Morocco's 12 top-level administrative regions. The term "Southern Provinces" is frequently used on Moroccan state television (e.g. weather forecasts, news maps, and official statements).
