Morocco history Arab Cultural Center

This illuminating summary takes the reader through centuries of Moroccan history, from the Roman Empire era to the Islamic conquest in the seventh century, then to the emergence of empires. In the eleventh century, and it reaches the moment when King Mohammed VI arrived in 1999. Daniel Rive dives into the details of this country with its wonderful contradictions, where Arab cities in the north coexist with Berber palaces in the south, and Muslims and Jews coexist, as well as scholars and jurists with saints and righteous people. Among the countries of the Maghreb, the noble kingdom represents an exception in several ways and does not easily reveal its many secrets and mysteries: Since when has there been a country called Morocco? How can the sustainability of the royal system be explained through centuries and historical events? And how do different cultural patterns coexist to the point of contradiction?
