Morocco, a North African country bordering the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea,
is distinguished by its Berber, Arabian and European cultural influences. Marrakesh’s
medina, a mazelike medieval quarter, offers entertainment in its Djemaa el-Fna square
and souks (marketplaces) selling ceramics, jewelry and metal lanterns. The capital
Rabat’s Kasbah of the Udayas is a 12th-century royal fort overlooking the water.
MOROCCO
The flag of Morocco is made a red field with a black-bordered green pentagram. Red has
considerable historic significance in Morocco, proclaiming the descent from royal Alaouite
dynasty. This ruling house was associated with the Islamic prophet Muhammad via Fatimah,
the wife of Ali, the fourth Muslim Caliph.
