Morocco a North African country where brings you incredible experience and let you immerse into traditional culture and heritage.
History
Morocco gained its independence in 1956 and is currently ruled by King Mohammed VI under parliamentary constitutional monarchy. Berbers are the indigenous inhabitants of Morocco and they have their own spoken language. Arabs started living in Northern Africa around the 7th Century. Affected by Arab culture, most of Moroccans are Muslims. Due to proximity to Europe (just half hour by ferry from northern Morocco to Spain) and the influence as French and Spanish Protectorate in the past centuries, their traditional culture are mixed together. Nowadays, Moroccans consist of Arabs and Berbers and people commonly speak Arabic, French and some remains to speak Berber.
