Titre: North Africa, Moroccan Soldier,19th Century
Légende: Voir la traduction automatique
The Moroccan army has existed continuously since the rising of Almoravid Empire in the 11th century. Morocco has been ruled by a series of independent dynasties, reaching its zenith under the Almoravid and Almohad dynasties, spanning parts of Iberia and northwestern Africa. The Marinid and Saadi dynasties continued the struggle against foreign domination, allowing Morocco to remain the only northwest African country to avoid Ottoman occupation. The Alaouite dynasty, which rules to this day, seized power in 1631. In 1912, Morocco was divided into French and Spanish protectorates, with an international zone in Tangier. It regained its independence in 1956. In 1879-80 Oskar Lenz led the first trans-Sahara expedition from Morocco to Senegal and became the fourth European to visit the fabled city of Timbuktu. The others being, Alexander Gordon Laing (1826), René Caillié (1828) and Heinrich Barth (1853). Timbuktu; Travel through Morocco, the Sahara and Sudan by Oskar Lenz, 1884.
