Undid revision 1037568811 by SunDawn (talk). I had to expand on the first uncited comment for it to not be misleading. That had no resource, either take out the whole thing or allow my expansion. I suggest maybe you focus on American topics because you clearly do not know what you are talking about. |

European Moroccans are Moroccans whose ancestry lies within the continent of Europe, most notably France and Spain. Many European families settled in the country during French and Spanish rule, from 1912 to 1955.
History
Prior to independence, Morocco was home to half a million Europeans,[1] and European Christians formed almost half the population of the city of Casablanca.[2] Since the kingdom's independence in 1955, the European population has decreased substantially.
At the beginning of the 20th century, 250,000 Spaniards lived in Morocco. Most left Morocco after its independence and their numbers were reduced to 13,000.[3][4]
