(Para 1: Tribal/Ancient History): During the early years of Morocco’s development, the country experienced many invasions and attacks from surrounding nations. As Morocco started to develop, the country lacked unification and authority in its government that it needed. The people during this time of disunion were the Berber people. The Berber people “lived in large familial tribes and there was no actual recognized government over the area.” Instead, the Berber people lived according to the guidelines and laws of their tribal leaders. The first to invade the Berber people were the Phoenicians. The Phoenicians took a large number of settlements from the Berber people. After the Phoenicians, Morocco was then invaded by the Carthaginians. After

First, the French created an educational system in Morocco and shaped Moroccan strategies and communication. During this time, education defined a person’s social position or rank, where most education was primarily oral, unless there was a private teacher or tutor hired. The French started sending Moroccan students to Egypt, Britain, France, Italy and Spain where they had the opportunity to study military science, architecture, chemistry and law. Those students who traveled and studied in other countries found their skills unutilized in Morocco and those with the Islamic training, which was the minority, dominated the Moroccan state. Because of this, European teachers started to arrive in Morocco which lead to the development of European schooling. European schooling resulted in European economic and political influence in Morocco, which increasingly unsettled the power of the Moroccan state. Because of constant Moroccan disagreement with the European power, the French reassured their power by signing the Treaty of Fez, which established structure of the French protectorate in Morocco.

Morocco is ruled by a ruler, the king. The king also establishes a prime minister. Although the king is accompanied by a prime minister, the king still obtains ultimate power because the prime minister is called upon to lead the Assembly of Advisers (or also called Assembly of Councilors). This assembly is represented by two hundred and seventy members which are elected for a nine-year term to be representatives of labor unions or business interactions, which are elected by the local councils. There are approximately 1,500 local councils (otherwise known as communes) which split into sixty-five departments across the nation. In addition, Morocco also has another assembly in their government, the Assembly of Representatives. This group is consisted of three hundred and twenty-five members that are elected for a 5-year term. That number of people is then minutely cut down to a list of 295 members elected for a multi-seat constituency. This group of people creates a national list of 30 women to be involved in their government. “Both of these assemblies’ power expands farther than just from the constitutional revolution, both assemblies have the power to supervise money matters and trades, bill approvals, establishing commissions, and to investigate the government’s actions as well as questioning the minister” (
