Santa Apolonia, officially the Territory of Santa Apolonia (Spanish: Territorio de Santa Apolonia), is a Spanish Autonomous Territory located in the Indian Ocean, off the southeastern coast of East Africa. It comprises the eponymous island of Santa Apolonia, Isla de España and Las Palomas Islands, alongside several other uninhabited islands. The city of Alexandria is its capital. Originally the Spanish Dependency of Santa Apolonia, it was officially integrated into Spain in 1966, becoming an Autonomous Territory with its own local government.
