Traditions of Morocco

The Persians are of great interest to the Moroccans, who have taken care of them for centuries, until their breeding has become a Moroccan tradition, especially in the countryside. The Moroccan writer Allal Rakouk recounts that chivalry formed a historical heritage, whether in war or peace, and the Persians constituted a manifestation of pride. The professional knight becomes the focus of attention to the point where he becomes an example as a person of courage and daring.
