Morocco's history dates back to the old times and has been succeeded by the cultures of Asholinese, Mosterian, Atirian, Ibromorizia, Cardinal, Bell and then Cypriot. Archaeological evidence showed that the area had been inhabited for at least 400,000 years. The recorded history of Morocco begins with the Phoenician colonization of the Moroccan coast between the eighth and sixth centuries BC, although the area was inhabited by the original Amazigh some 2,000 years ago. In the 5th century BC, the city of Carthage expanded its domination of coastal areas. Until the late 3rd century BC. The Kingdom of Mauritania is the first political organization governed by local monarchs in ancient Morocco, in 44 AD the Kingdom will be subjected to a Roman invasion, and then independence under the rule of the Pakuat Moor Amazigh Christ, and the region will later be subjected to the invasion of the Wandali and then the Bezanti. In the first century Hijri 8th AD, the Muslim opening of Morocco and North Africa took place at the time of the Umayyad caliphate, but the Umayyad rule did not last long, as Morocco soon broke away from the Umayyad caliphate after a revolution led by the Mutaghri facilitator known as the Berber Revolution in 740 AD. To establish several Muslim Amazigh emirates, such as Burgouata, Nakur and Bennu Medrar, half a century later, the country of honorable scholarships. During the Marabeteen and Unified dynasty, the local emirate was wiped out and Morocco was unified and their control over the Maghreb and Andalusia was stolen, followed by the Saadiyoun dynasty from 1549 to 1659, then Alawis from 1667 to date, and since then they have been Morocco's ruling dynasty. In 1912, after the first Moroccan crisis and the Agadir crisis, the Treaty of Fez was signed, in which Morocco became under French and Spanish protection. In 1956, after 44 years of French occupation, Morocco gained independence, and most of the territory under Spanish control soon regained independence as well.

Morocco is a gateway to Africa and a country of dizzying diversity. Here you\'ll find epic mountain ranges, ancient cities, sweeping deserts – and warm hospitality.Mountains & Desert From Saharan dunes to the peaks of the High Atlas, Morocco could have been tailor-made for travellers. Lyrical landscapes carpet this slice of North Africa like the richly coloured and patterned rugs you’ll lust after in local cooperatives. The mountains – not just the famous High Atlas but also the Rif and suntanned ranges leading to Saharan oases – offer simple, breathtaking pleasures: night skies glistening in the thin air, and views over a fluffy cloudbank from the Tizi n’Test pass. On lower ground, there are rugged coastlines, waterfalls and caves in forested hills, and the mighty desert. Ancient Medinas Morocco\'s cities are some of the most exciting on the continent. Join the centuries-old trail of nomads and traders to their ancient hearts, from the winding medina maze of Fez to the carnivalesque street-theatre of the Djemaa El Fna in Marrakesh. In the rocky deserts medinas are protected by kasbahs, on the coast by thick sea walls. But it\'s not just a heritage trip, as Morocco\'s cities are forward-facing too, with glitzy new urban design in Casablanca, Rabat and Tangier looking to the future as well as paying homage to their roots. Moroccan Activities Enjoying Morocco starts with nothing more strenuous than its national pastime – people-watching in a street cafe with a coffee or a mint tea. Use the opportunity to plan your next moves – hiking up North Africa’s highest peak, learning to roll couscous, camel trekking in the desert, shopping in the souqs or getting lost in the medina. Between the activities, you can sleep in boutique riads, relax on panoramic terraces and grand squares, and mop up delicately flavoured tajines – before sweating it all out in a restorative hammam. Traditional Life Morocco is a storied country, that has, over the centuries, woven its ties to sub-Saharan Africa, Europe and the wider Middle East into whole cloth. Its mixed Arab and Berber population forms a strong national identity, but an increasingly youthful one, taking the best of its traditions and weaving the pattern anew – from the countryside to the city, from the call to prayer from the mosque to the beat of local hip hop. Morocco has a hundred faces and sounds, all ready to welcome the traveller looking for spice and adventure.
