Flag of Morocco
The flag of Morocco features a green pentagram — a five-pointed linear star — centered on a red field.
Where it is
Morocco is grouped in Northern Africa, within Roam’s Africa region. Its land-border list includes 2 countries in this atlas: Algeria, Spain. The source classifies it as not landlocked. The source also lists ESH, outside this 195-country set.
Morocco has a recorded area of 446,550 square kilometres. Among the 6 countries assigned to Northern Africa in this dataset, it ranks 5 by area, from largest to smallest. Egypt is immediately above it in that ordering, at 1,002,450 km². Tunisia is immediately below it, at 163,610 km². This comparison uses the source’s area figures and subregions, not a ranking of all territories.
The marker shows the atlas location. Small countries may be too small for an outline at this scale. Map boundaries are illustrative.
People, languages and currency
The World Bank records 38,430,770 people for Morocco in 2025. This is the latest non-empty annual observation in Roam’s committed 2020–2025 download, rather than a live population counter. Dividing that population by the source area gives approximately 86 people per square kilometre. This calculated average does not describe how evenly people are distributed.
The language entries in the source are Arabic and Berber. They describe the dataset’s listed languages, not every language spoken by residents. The currency listed for this date is Moroccan Dirham (MAD). Currency assignments are selected from Unicode CLDR’s date ranges for 23 October 2026; the three-letter codes identify currencies, not countries.
