Starting 2010: The Advanced Regionalization
Starting 2010, a new governmental program aimed at giving each of the regions of Morocco autonomy, much like the Spanish style, and a greater autonomy to the regions fully coinciding with the Western Sahara. So a governmental organization was formed to tackle this subject; it got the name of Consultative Commission for the Regionalization. The latter published the names of the new regions and their numbers:
- 01. Region of Tangier-Tétouan
- 02. Region of the East and the Rif
- 03. Region of Fes-Meknes
- 04. Region of Rabat-Sale-Kenitra
- 05. Region of Beni Mellal-Khenifra
- 06. Region of Settat-Casablanca
- 07. Region of Marrakesh-Safi
- 08. Region of Drâa-Tafilalt
- 09. Region of Souss-Massa
- 10. Region of Guelmim-Oued Noun
- 11. Region of El Aiun-Saguia al Hamra
- 12. Region of Dakhla-Oued Addahab

Famous quotes containing the words starting and/or advanced:
“I feel the carousel starting slowly
And going faster and faster: desk, papers, books,
Photographs of friends, the window and the trees
Merging in one neutral band that surrounds
Me on all sides, everywhere I look.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Among the earliest institutions to be invented, if I read the stars right, is a Protestant monastery, a place of elegant seclusion where melancholy gentlemen and ladies may go to spend the advanced session of life in drinking milk, walking the woods & reading the Bible and the poets.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
