	Morocco
		The Vandal invasion in the early 5th century largely bypassed Morocco as it headed for the fertile region that is now Tunisia, and Morocco reverted to rule by Berber chieftains.
		It was not until Idris I (a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad's daughter Fatima and the Caliph Ali) sought refuge from Baghdad that Morocco was subjugated to a single ruler.
		The struggle for independence in Morocco was shorter and less harrowing than in neighbouring French Algeria, where the revolution was well under way by this date; this was partly because Morocco's colonial ties were much looser, and partly because Moroccan independence involved no substantial change in the form of government.

		Morocco already conducts 65 percent of its trade with Europe, and the bulk of foreign investment comes from the north.
		The roots of this ability to be both Eastern and Western, African and European, Arab and Mediterranean, and the origins of the intellectual and emotional tolerance that characterizes Moroccan culture are surely to be found in the country's historical connection to the Muslim Spain of the beginning of the past millennium.
		Morocco enters the new millennium with a greater degree of pluralism, a stronger civil society, more space for free policy debate, and a more diversified economy than most countries in the region.
