 Mauritania - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
After several military losses to Polisario, Mauritania retreated in 1979, and their claims were taken by Morocco.
On August 3, 2005, it was reported that the Mauritanian military, including members of the presidential guard, had seized control of key points in the capital of Nouakchott, indicating a possible coup against the government of President Maaouya Ould Sid'Ahmed Taya who was out of the country, attending the funeral of Saudi King Fahd.
The Military Council has subsequently released 115 political prisoners of the former government[4] and authorized the return of President Maaouya Ould Sid'Ahmed Taya and some 300 of his political supporters.
