== Spanish Colonization (1860s-1956) ==
In 1860, over a dispute about their Ceuta encalve, Spain declared war on Morocco. Victorious, Spain obtained more territory in Morocco and declared parts of coastal Morocco a protectorate in 1884. In 1904, Spain and France divided Morocco further, with Spain claiming some of Northern and Southern Morocco.  When Morocco gained independence from France in 1956, Spain kept their coastal enclaves in Morocco but ceded most of Northern Morocco.<ref>Wikipedia contributors, "Morocco," in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia'', https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morocco, accessed 26 July 2019.</ref>

Prior to this, both France and Germany had competed for Morocco, and parts of northern and southern Morocco had been signed over to Spain. In 1956, France officially released Morocco from being a protectorate.<ref>Wikipedia contributors, "Morocco," in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia'', https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morocco, accessed 26 July 2019.</ref>
