Rabat-Salé-Zemmour Zaer

Rabat-Salé-Zemmour-Zaër (Arabic: الرباط سلا زمور زعير) was one of the sixteen regions of Morocco from 1997 to 2015. 

Location: Northwest Morocco, on the Atlantic coast. 
Capital: Rabat (also the capital of all of Morocco). 
Main cities: Rabat, Salé, Skhirat-Témara, and Khémisset. 
The region encompassed the urban agglomeration around Rabat and Salé (on both sides of the Bou Regreg river), plus surrounding countryside and plateaus (including Zaer). 
It had a rich history, from Phoenician and Roman settlements (such as Chellah) to its modern role as a capital city. 
In 2015, the region was merged with Gharb-Chrarda-Béni Hssen to form the current region of Rabat-Salé-Kénitra. 

In short: a compact, dynamic region featuring the political and administrative capital of Morocco, a mix of urban life, coast, and countryside.
