33,000,000
Moroccan.noun,.plural.Moroccans
Morocco has the broadest
plains and the highest mountains in North Africa. It's a hereditary.monarchy,
bounded
on the north by the Mediterranean Sea, on the east and southeast by Algeria,
on the south by Western Sahara and on the west by the Atlantic Ocean. Morocco
has a subtropical climate,
tempered by oceanic influences that give the coastal cities moderate
temperatures. The original population of Morocco was Berber and about three-quarters
of all present-day Moroccans are of Berber descent.
Arabs, who constitute the bulk
of the inhabitants of the larger cities, form the second largest ethnic.group.
Considerable.intermarriage
among Arabs, Berbers and the country's small number of black Africans has
broken down differences among ethnic groups. Morocco has about 100,000
Europeans, most of them French. Major urban
centers are Casablanca, the country's largest city and main seaport, Marrakech
and Fès, both important trade centers and Tangier, a seaport on
a bay of the Strait of Gibraltar....comprised
