The Republic of Bou Regreg was a 17^th century governmental unit^[1] in present day western Morocco. According to the Encyclopædia Britannica, this republic was a base of the "notorious Sallee Corsairs", a group of Barbary pirates.^[2] The Republic of Bou Regreg was formed from the two cities Rabat and Salé.

The early history of this region is rich with Phoenician colonisation and Roman settlement at the ancient site of Chellah,^[3] which was eventually overtaken by native Berber tribes.
