	Agadir Crisis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Agadir Crisis, also called the Second Moroccan Crisis, was the international tension sparked by the deployment of the German gunboat Panther, to the Moroccan port of Agadir on July 1, 1911.
		Franco-German negotiations initiated on July 9 led to the conclusion (November 4) of a convention under which Germany accepted France's position in Morocco in return for territory in the French Equatorial African colony of Middle Congo (now the Republic of the Congo).
		British backing for France during the crisis reinforced the Entente between the two countries and added to Anglo-German estrangement, deepening the divisions which would culminate in World War I.

		Also, 1911 was the year of the Agadir crisis, and the other European Powers had too much to occupy their attention to allow themselves to be distracted by relatively unimportant events in Tripoli.
		Now that Austria had the whole situation under her own control, she could afford to defer the crisis while she was making plans in the event of war.

		German trade in Morocco ranked third in volume, immediately after that of England and France, and when France made her peace in advance with all other European states which might possibly show an interest in the country and deliberately(2) overlooked Germany, German statesmen felt that the snub could not be accepted in silence.
		Matters went from bad to worse, and at length the German gunboat Panther was dispatched to the port of Agadir on the southwest coast of Morocco, again challenging France and demanding, in effect, a settlement with Germany.
		The international crisis which ensued was long and severe (July 1-November 4, 1911), England and other powers found themselves involved in the tangle, and a general European war was narrowly averted.
