On November 28, 1960 Mauritania became independent. In 1976 it
annexed the south of former Spanish Sahara. Saharan guerrillas
stepped up attacks in 1977 and 8,000 Moroccan troops with French
bomber raids aided the government. Mauritania signed a peace
treaty with the Plosario Front in 1980 and resumed diplomatic
relations with Algeria while breaking a defense treaty with
Morocco. Famine has struck repeatedly during the past decade.
