Moray, Council area in northeastern Scotland
This administrative division extends from the southern shore of the Moray Firth to the Cairngorm Mountains, encompassing beaches, sand dunes, and fertile plains.
The area was a Pictish territory until the 9th century when Kenneth MacAlpin united it with Scottish lands, later becoming one of seven traditional provinces.
The region maintains eight secondary schools and forty-five primary schools, serving more than thirteen thousand students across the administrative division.
Moray Council oversees one thousand miles of roads, manages six thousand council properties, and operates fifteen public libraries with internet facilities.
The demographic composition shows ninety-seven percent white residents, with an increasing Polish population contributing to the area's gradual diversification.
