    Default Re: Morocco

    official name: Al Maghrib,

    -Capitol for PM's purposes, Marrakush ("berber" Marrakush).
    -major cities: Fez ("arab" Fez) , Tangier , Tlemclen, Sijilimasa.

    -Main dynasty's: Saadi and Alouite dynasties, both were berber tribes to begin with and then gained the support of the local sufis to create their letgitimacy.

    -Troops: yet to come, mix of berber and arab cavaliers/ privateers and ghulams taken from black slaves.

    Main enemies are the Ottomans and Songhai/Wolof troops to the south. In the 1600's, the Alouite dynasty invaded the songhai empire and defeated them with the help of turkish/european firearms.
