520 1 $a"The Kingdom of Morocco achieved independence in 1956 after more than 40 years as a French protectorate. Since its sovereignty, Morocco has expanded its area of control by reclaiming the formerly international city of Tangier, as well as annexing Western Sahara from Spain in the 1970s. The Morocco of the past and present is covered in this second edition of Historical Dictionary of Morocco. A comprehensive introduction focusing on the kingdom's history provides a helpful synopsis, which is supplemented by a chronology of major events. Hundreds of dictionary entries on former rulers; current leaders; ancient capitals; significant locations; influential institutions; and crucial aspects of the economy, society, culture, and religion form the core of the book, and a bibliography of sources promotes further study."--BOOK JACKET.
