Capital: Al Hoceima (on the Mediterranean Sea).
Provinces: including Taza, Al Hoceima, Taounate, and Guercif.
The region was situated in the Rif Mountains and along the Mediterranean coast, with a mix of mountainous terrain, coastal areas, and agricultural regions.
Economically, agriculture (olives, grains, livestock) and fishing were important.
In 2015, the region was merged with Tangier-Tétouan to form the current Tangier-Tétouan-Al Hoceima region.
The area is known for its natural beauty, national parks, and beaches, but experienced a declining population (the only region in Morocco to do so).
In short: a northern, mountainous, and coastal former administrative region of Morocco with Al Hoceima as its center.
