Greetings Marc -

There is no capital "PPLC" for this country.

There is no "PPL" for the largest city either.

There is a beach (geoname_id=2461993) "Laayoune Plage".

Could you please add a "PPL" for Laâyoune?

Thanks In Advance.

Regards,

Robert Artigas

Hi Robert

El Aaiún already is in GeoNames:
http://www.geonames.org/2462881/ejbei-uad-el-aabd.html

As it is a disputed area I don't think we can call it a capital.

Best

Greetings Marc -

My apologies, I was not clear. I did not need a "PPLC".

I was just looking for the "PPL".

Looks like I might need to download the latest data dump if it is there.

Thank You.

Regards,
Robert Artigas
