Morocco had 40 million people and 10 million living abroad. Not ‘33 million’

people! we need to think like a 15th century publisher, who is going to considerable effort and expense to encapsulate what is valuable and privileged information. Even Da Vinci encoded his notes but here we have a very robust encoding which would be decoded, for a fee, and earn the publisher income in the same manner as publishing multiple copies. There's only one sure-fire method of achieving this, which is to commit the entire manuscript to memory and recite it on demand, prompted with the assistance of cues which may or may not require an optical apparatus.

Just look at iran's architecture and designs and colours 1000 years ago. When arabs attacked persians and took the civil engineer's and architectures with them as slaves. Portugal, Spain and Moroccans art and design influenced by persians at that time and still continues

Israeli propaganda. Morocco has been created by France in the earlier century.

The Sahrawi 🇪🇭 Arab Democratic Republic is the sole legitimate state of the dispossessed & dreadfully treated indigenous people of the Western Sahara. Incorporation into ‘Morocco’ is a hateful project of Islamist, supremacist neo-colonialism to the dispossessed people . Thankfully, the Republic has garnered a great deal of international support & recognition : the UN regards the Republic as simply being temporarily under the aegis of Moroccan military occupation, completely illegally. UN mandated referenda to ascertain local opinion on autonomy, independence from or incorporation into Morocco have been suspended no less than 47 times due to Rabat’s sabotage of the process.

when discussing the history of European involvement in the Maghreb there seems to be a consensus among many historians to detract the Portuguese legacy and focus more on the Spanish & French. when in fact Portugal was the first European power to invade Morocco, where they fought a gruesome 350 year holy war . all the beautiful UNESCO world heritage sites dotting the Moroccan Atlantic coast built by the Portuguese empire many centuries ago , aren't there by coincidence.

Looking forward to watching this and I am leading a group of museum docents to Venice that same week in September!

Uh...ahh...ummm...how can we make ...uh....ummm...indigenous languages that are used to...ummm...ahh...combine...uhhh...sentences. Uhhh..umm...These languages...are...uhhh...ummm..so..uhh...ummm. Learn to SPEAK. Unbearable!

It was not Meknes that you compared to Morella, but rather Moulay Driss

This is most disappointing. The guy is really a professor?

It will be helpful to measure the percentage of Americans who are traumatized by climate change as this group grows each year.

It was found not only by Voynich from Lithuania, but also deciphered in Lithuania by a Lithuanian researcher of Ukrainian origin.

Proof you should be carefully to what you said, you made some mistakes that should be fixed. And next time before you starting to teach lesson make sure 100 parcent that information you recieve are correct.

BIASED AND UNPROFESSIONAL

Morocco has 2 official languages: Arabic and tamazight, not French. French is for administration

I live in New Haven, CT where Yale University is located and when i saw a one hour video about Morocco by Yale Alumni Academy, as a Moroccan American I thought Oh! This is gonna be some serious academic endeavor, Boy I was wrong, I heard tourists guides in Morocco do a better job. I am not gonna ever bother listing all the wrong information in this video. I see a lot of people in the comments section did that already,and I don’t think the Yale Alumini Academy really care anyway.

The city on the hill in Morocco is not Meknes but Moulay Idriss Zerhoun مولاي إدريس زرهون

Tamazight is an official language in both Morocco and Algeria. Professor he said

In the Northern Morocco, Rif region, the language we spoke with in our daily life is: Native Tamazight Rifia Not Arabic nor French. 2nd is the Darija dialect. 2- No one in the whole countru uses the standard Arabic or French in their daily life.

Yes we Maya/Native Americans openly admit we are Moors. It's not so far ferched when you see our DNA and haplogroups and traditions which are inherent in Islamic tradition.

Nazi German

According to the constitution, the official languages Arabic & Berber. For the French it is imposed by the actual elite but not spoken between Moroccan only used in French companies and finance field. STEM high education in University is either in French or English.

He took a different route to avoid being another statistic in the muslim slave-trade and came upon the Americas.

History doesn't start only when a westerner view hit places. The brief (1912-1956) Spanish and French colonization period is just an anomaly in the course of Moroccan history not a set point when every thing began, even, the General Assembly of united nation gives the13 December 1974 an advisory opinion, confirming the ties between Sahara and the kingdom of Morocco. The thing is a territory dispute is very lucrative for the colonial powers pushing the region into an armament race, weakening them and subjugating them to those same powers...

The author distorted the words of his country that he used,or elongated the letters making them like fancy calligraphic letters. Or distorted letters of Latino language that he used ( maybe )making it looks like a tamil alphabet, nepal alphabet or fancy calligraphy letters.( or alphabet of his country I think : It is a type of small enclyclopedia ,nothing interesting.nothing strange, It is like the game : remove one matchstick to solve the equation ,same should do with letters.

the Soninke are the al-Berabir (the Berbers) of medieval Arabic sources and Barbari in southern Europe. : ) The word is indigenous to those now called sub-Saharans, and still found under the forms Beribra, Bambara and Beri'a." #repost @Dana Reynolds Marniche

The Gharib al Hadith by Abu 'Ubaid al-Qasim ibn Sallam al-Harawi (d. 837 AD). The oldest known dated Arabic manuscript on paper in Leiden University Library says " The most prominent colours amongst the Arabs is Asmar and udmah and the most prominent colours amongst the non Arabs is white and red (pale white)" The word Asmar and Udmah are translated differently in different parts of the Middle East but in the medieval Arabic grammar sources and in modern bedouin Arabia the variants of the word sumr or samar mean something "just short of black", while udmah meant simply "black".

Christopher Columbus and Vasco da Gama crushed Islam by completely destroying their business model. The Spanish went West, the Portoguese went East and they both reached Asia. And both kicked Muslim traders and middlemen out of the market, the Silk Road collapsed, the Ottoman Empire fell into decline, the Arabian peninsula and also the Maghreb became global backwaters and economically insignificant. When sugar was grown in the Caribbean, there was no more need to buy it from Muslim traders, the same is true for coffee, that was imported before through Arabia and now was grown in Central America and Brazil. Silk was imported directly, as well as Indian spices and Chinese porcelaine and tea. Within a few years the Portuguese gained dominance not only in the Indian Ocean but even in the Persian Gulf. A 400 years decline of all Muslim powers followed.

Even if I was attending Yale, and she was my professor. I would walk out after a day of the amount of “uh”s in her lecture. It is very rare to find a writer who can speak.

Good to know

You have put picture of Mostar, city in Bosnia and Herzegovina on slide of Dubrovnik. I am not surprised that people wonder how the minarets can be seen in the picture.

thank you so much, Professor.

The narration could be smoother, not easy to listen to. I was hoping for a chronology starting with oldest events first.

Please double check every fact mentioned here. Very dismayed to see this poor presentation by an academic of such a highly esteemed institution. It is fraught with wrong facts, a number of major errors and numerous misconceptions. One wonders if he is trying to rewrite the Moroccan and Islamic history to fit some new world narrative or satisfy the goals of some political agenda. Thumbs down 👎. There are many decent choices on youtube for those looking to learn about Moroccan histroy. Many conscientious, diligent and fact driven youtubers have done a much better job at presenting Moroccan history.

Thank you for your time and effort 👌 💪

The Moroccan Sahara was occupied by Spaim. Morocco got back the Moroccan Sahara in 1975.

No ! He's incorrect, the Maghreb ( territory ) Starts from Libya, Tunis, Algeria, Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Mali and Niger. Across the Atlantic Ocean onto to the Americas, North, Central and South of America. The Maghreb doesn't stop at Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Niger, or the Western Sahara, Remember! The Maghreb means the farthest West, not just the far West ! They not telling it all !

As a cultural studies master student most of the information you said is wrong, please read the history then speak

Language : Arabic & amazigh

Being proud of our country is what we need in our society. CAUSE, our country is a mix between different cultures and they must work together and be strong

Morocco's links with its Saharan provinces went back to the unification of Greater Morocco in the 11th century; the southward extension of pre-colonial 16th to 18th-century Morocco was much greater than in modern times; the scattered Saharan tribes- mostly of north Moroccan origin- historically paid allegiance to the Moroccan kings, and five out of the seven Moroccan dynasties themselves were of Saharan origin.

…I had to stop listening after the first 5 min. The vast majority of the people of Morocco speak Darija, sir. An extremely unique language across Northern Africa, particularly Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. It varies widely among those countries, but that adjusts even between cities within Maghreb. Arabic and French are official governmental languages, that are taught to those with access to certain education, though Arabic more readily than French. (SOME people speak Berber, or more correctly native Amazigh, but since those groups are more private it is far less common.) This is basic information to get wrong.

Climate Changes.. Has nothing to do with humans.. Maunder Minimum is perfect example..

Crap. This should be titled “Moroccan influence in Arabic Spain”. He “tours” a few Moroccan cities with video and tells us of the Western influence on the architecture - almost nothing about the African inhabitants or MOROCCO. REALLY a disappointment and given from a Western., white perspective. Nothing about the Berber - a mention. “I like Moroccan food because it’s closest to Eurpean food ..”. Yup - pretty much reflects this guys “take” on the whole country. 1:00:47 That’s this guy. Horrible on multiple levels.
