MR 092Following the Madrid Conference in 1880, Morocco is forced to turn Tangier into a zone of international administration. This came after years of Spanish and French interference in Moroccan politics, generally to the benefit of their own citizens. Morocco had protested against this, but was by now so weak that it had to give up even more than before.
In 1894 Sultan Moulay Hassan died, and his son Abdu l-Aziz was only 10 years of age at the accession. During his reign, Europeans became the main advisors at the court, and local rulers became more and more independent from the sultan’s rule.
In 1904 France reached agreement with Great Britain and Italy on spheres of influence over Africa, leaving Morocco within the control of France. Similar agreeement is reached with Germany the following year.

In 1907 France occupied Oujda near the border to French controlled Algeria. Shortly afterward the French invade Casablanca. Spain, worried about its own position, sent 90,000 troops to Melilla, their own enclave in northeastern Morocco.
In 1910 Moulay Hafiz is trapped by the French, and forced to conclude an agreement, which took two years to negotiate. In 1912 the Treaty of Fez is signed. With this, France is given the right to defend Morocco. A similar treaty is signed with Spain, who occupied most of the northern coast, and areas in the deep south.

MR 128Rare early 20th century AUCA on the history of the 1893 war in Morocco. M KN
Price: $500.00
Note: An Auca is a graphic format popular in Spain and especially in the region of Catalonia around Barcelona. The genre dates at least to the 17th century but was banned during the 18th century before experiencing a renewal during the 19th and later the 20th centuries as a uniquely Catalonian form of expression. It takes the form of a cartoon or a comic strip, typically with 48 blocks of image and text, although some may have less. An Auca is generally produced as a single sheet, but occasionally a booklet form is used. The captions tend to have some sort of consistent rhyme to assist with the flow and storytelling. Many times the term “auca” appears in the title, but another term, “aleluya,” is used, apparently interchangeably. Some sources indicate that the aleluya originated in Castile and originally included religious elements that were shed over time. Auca was a very popular form of anti-Nationalist propaganda during the Civil War.
