Western Sahara stands at the crossroads of statehood and colonialism. Still listed as a non-self-governing territory under Article 73 of the UN Charter, it is also home to a self-proclaimed state founded in 1976 by its people: the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR), founding member of the African Union.
