Last night I was surprised to stumble upon the geographic and political classification of Morocco in my student's history class book.
It says there, North Africa (NA) and the Middle East (ME) is the place where 3 continents meet namely Africa, Europe and Asia. It says NA and ME are a separate regions from their continental location.
Whew! No wonder Morocco is applying for a European Union membership. It's interesting to know that these two regions North Africa and Middle East supply the world with crude oil.

Interesting enough, I read on and there were plenty of phrases from the book that would make you realize that much of the regions future depends on peaceful and harmonious understanding between the nations of both regions.

By the way, both regions are considered to be a dessert and that the North Africa is part of the Arab World.
Nice read indeed!
