map of Mauritania Africa

Mauritania ; Arabic: موريتانيا, Mūrītānyā, French: Mauritanie; Berber: Agawej or Cengit; Pulaar: ???????????????????????????????? Moritani; Wolof: Gànnaar; Soninke: Murutaane), officially the Islamic Republic of Mauritania (Arabic: الجمهورية الإسلامية الموريتانية), is a sovereign state in Northwest Africa. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, Western Sahara to the north and northwest, Algeria to the northeast, Mali to the east and southeast, and Senegal to the southwest. Mauritania is the eleventh largest country in Africa, and 90 percent of its territory is situated in the Sahara. Most of its population of 4.4 million lives in the temperate south of the country, with roughly one third concentrated in the capital and largest city, Nouakchott, located on the Atlantic coast.

The country's name derives from the ancient Berber kingdom of Mauretania, located in present-day Morocco and Algeria. Berbers occupied what is now Mauritania beginning in the third century AD. Arabs conquered the area in the eighth century, bringing Islam, Arab culture, and the Arabic language. In the early 20th century, Mauritania was colonized by France as part of French West Africa. It achieved independence in 1960, but has since experienced recurrent coups and periods of military dictatorship. The most recent coup, in 2008, was led by General Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz, who won subsequent presidential elections in 2009 and 2014. He was succeeded by Mohamed Ould Ghazouani following the 2019 elections, which were considered Mauritania's first peaceful transition of power since independence.

Mauritania is culturally and politically part of the Arab world: it is a member of the Arab League and Arabic is the sole official language. Reflecting its colonial heritage, French is widely spoken and serves as a lingua franca. The official religion is Islam, and almost all inhabitants are Sunni Muslims. Despite its prevailing Arab identity, Mauritanian society is multiethnic: the Bidhan, or so-called white moors, make up 30 percent of the population, while the Haratin, or so-called black moors, comprise 40 percent. Both groups reflect a fusion of Arab-Berber ethnicity, language, and culture. The remaining 30 percent of the population is made up of various sub-Saharan ethnic groups.

Despite an abundance of natural resources, including iron ore and petroleum, Mauritania remains poor; its economy is based primarily on agriculture, livestock, and fishing. Mauritania is known for its poor human rights record, most notably the continued practice of slavery, a result of a historical caste system between the Bidhan and Haratin. It was the last country in the world to abolish slavery, in 1981 and criminalized it only in 2007. Control is tightly concentrated in the executive branch of the central government, but a series of national and municipal elections since 1992 have produced limited decentralization. These regions are subdivided into 44 departments (moughataa). The regions and capital district (in alphabetical order) and their capitals are:

MAURITANIA: Breakdown in the middle of the desert! Terjit Oasis and Chinguetti // EPS. 3

The rough ride through Mauritania: Breakdown in the middle of the desert, a trip to an ancient town that gets burried by the dunes, and new friends who helped us solve our problems.
We started off in the mauritanian city Nouadhibou, where we learned how to adapt to local customs. After a short stay in Mauritanias capital Nouakchott we started our journey inlands – hundreds of kilometers in the burning heat with 40 degrees celsius plus. When doing a little excursion to the oasis Terjit we got stuck in deep sand – and my travel partner burnt the clutch of his Africa Twin motorcycle. With the help of the whole village we were able to get to a local guesthouse – but the Africa Twin would not start anymore. While looking for a solution I did excursions to the city Atar and the ancient town Chinguetti, which once was one of the most important cities of Islam. How we solved the problem with the motorcycle? Watch the whole episode to find out if we were ever able to leave the oasis of Terjit!

mapa de Mauritania [ Africa ]

Mauritania, oficialmente la República Islámica de Mauritania (en árabe: الجمهورية الإسلامية الموريتانية Al-Ŷumhūrīya al-Islāmīya al-Mawrītānīya, en francés: République Islamique de Mauritanie), es un país ubicado en el noroeste de África. Limita con el océano Atlántico al oeste, con Senegal al suroeste, con Malí al este y al sureste, con Argelia al noreste y con el territorio del Sahara Occidental (en disputa entre la República Árabe Saharaui Democrática y Marruecos) al norte. El 90 por ciento de su territorio está ubicado en el Sahara y la mayor parte de su población de 4,4 millones habita el sur templado del país, con aproximadamente un tercio concentrado en la capital y mayor ciudad, Nuakchot, situada en la costa del océano Atlántico.

El nombre del país deriva del antiguo reino bereber de Mauritania, ubicado en los actuales Marruecos y Argelia. Los bereberes ocuparon lo que hoy es Mauritania a partir del siglo III d.C. Los árabes conquistaron la zona en el siglo VIII. A finales del siglo XIX, Mauritania fue colonizada por Francia como parte del África Occidental Francesa. El país consiguió la independencia de Francia el 28 de noviembre de 1960. En 2008, el gobierno civil de Mauritania sufrió un golpe de Estado encabezado por el general Mohamed Uld Abdelaziz. El 16 de abril de 2009, Abdelaziz renunció a su rango militar para competir en las elecciones presidenciales del 19 de julio, siendo elegido presidente. Fue sucedido por Mohamed Ould Ghazouani después de las elecciones de 2019, que fueron consideradas la primera transición de poder pacífica desde la independencia.3​4​

Mauritania es cultural y políticamente parte del mundo árabe: es miembro de la Liga Árabe y el árabe es el único idioma oficial, aunque el francés se habla ampliamente y sirve como lengua franca. La religión oficial es el islam, y casi todos los habitantes son sunitas. La sociedad mauritana es multiétnica: los beidan, llamados «moros blancos», constituyen el 30 % de la población, mientras que los haratin, llamados «moros negros», comprenden el 40 %.5​ Ambos grupos reflejan el sincretismo árabe-bereber. El otro 30 % de la población está conformado por varios grupos étnicos subsaharianos.

En 2008 el 20 % de la población vivía con menos de 1,25 dólares por día.6​ El país sufre varios problemas en materia de derechos humanos.7​ Fue el último país en abolir la esclavitud, en 1981, aunque un informe de Amnistía Internacional publicado en 2018 afirmó que el número de personas esclavizadas en Mauritania podría superar el 1 % de su población Mauritania está dividida a efectos político-administrativos en 12 regiones (régions), que a su vez se subdividen en 52 departamentos (moughataa) y el distrito de la capital.

Tiene una frontera de 1564 km con el antiguo Sahara Occidental español, actualmente administrado por Marruecos, al oeste y norte,1​ 460 km con Argelia al noreste,1​ 2236 km con Malí al este y al sur,1​ y de 742 km con Senegal al sur;1​ si se suman todas estas extensiones Mauritania tiene una frontera total de 5002 km.1​

El río Senegal sirve de frontera con el país de Senegal.

Todas las ciudades importantes del país, como Nuakchot, capital del Estado, y Nuadibú, la capital comercial, se encuentran en la estrecha banda litoral. Las principales ciudades del interior son Tidjikja, Atar y Chingueti.
