I knew of Morocco but not much. MPHNCRIP(mother of),
SPHNCRIP(sister of) and I stopped there to refuel (converted WW2 troop ship for Army dependents) enroute from NY to, as it turned out, Italy, in 1953. I've met people from Morocco and they're delighted to be independent, and they hate the French and the Spanish. I didn't "pull it off the top of my head", numbskull, but I did know it.

Morocco has as big, if not bigger, a beef with Spain.

Morocco wins on uniforms. Green and red is compelling.**
