this record, there are numerous "pretenders" being

of historic capitals. Their names
appear here, with each one being indicated as

Territorial Disputes: Claims and
administers Western
Sahara whose sovereignty remains unresolved;
Morocco protests Spain's control over the coastal
enclaves of Ceuta,
Melilla,
and Penon de Velez de la Gomera, the islands of Penon de
Alhucemas and Islas Chafarinas, and surrounding waters;
both countries claim Isla Perejil (Leila Island);
discussions have not progressed on a comprehensive
maritime delimitation, setting limits on resource
exploration and refugee interdiction, since Morocco's
2002 rejection of Spain's unilateral designation of a
median line from the Canary Islands; Morocco serves as
one of the primary launching areas of illegal migration
into Spain from North Africa; Algeria's border with
Morocco remains an irritant to bilateral relations, each
nation accusing the other of harboring militants and
arms smuggling; the National Liberation Front's
assertions of a claim to Chirac Pastures in southeastern
Morocco is a dormant dispute.
