The map includes the enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla, the Chafarinas Islands, the Alhucemas Islands, and the Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera. These territories are located along the northern coast of Morocco and are significant due to their strategic positions at the crossroads of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. Ceuta and Melilla are two autonomous Spanish cities on the northern coast of Africa, bordered by Morocco. They have a complex history, shaped by their strategic military and trade positions and the cultural influences of Christians, Muslims, and Jews. The Chafarinas Islands are an archipelago of three small islets, with Spain maintaining a garrison on one of them. Similarly, the Alhucemas Islands and the Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera are small territories under Spanish control. See less
