The Kingdom of Morocco in North Africa is bordered by the North Atlantic up to the Strait of Gibraltar. Governed by a constitutional monarchy, this is the only country that is independent of the African Union. 123New Year offers you all that you need to know About Morocco, Holidays in Morocco and Attractions in Morocco. The Arabic name, Al- Mamlaka al- Maghribiya translates into The Western Kingdom. Morocco is an ethnically heterogeneous country with a civilization that is steeped in primitive culture, for the country was home to Phoenicians, Carthaginians, the Romans, Moors, Jews and Vandals - peoples who hailed from different belief systems such as paganism, Christianity, Judaism and Islam.
Today, Morocco is the least Arabic of countries as its inhabitants are of Berber origins who hailed from the north western part of the continent. The very names of Tangier, Casablanca and Marrakesh are enough to stir a hint of the spices of the Orient. The jostling crowds, debates and the perpetual motion of the place - all unite to give you that other- worldly feel the moment you step in here. Stop over Marrakesh for a weekend, or come home to Fès or the capital city Rabat to jettison your shopping imp in some of the most vibrant souks in the world. Cosset yourself in the soft dunes of the Sahara.
