Arabs account for 80% of Morocco's population, and Berbers account for 20%.
The vast majority of people are Muslims.
The traditions and beliefs of the Berber people have a special mystical tendency; belief worship is very prosperous in the Berber region of Morocco, and groups can gather anywhere, such as small meeting places, large temples, schools, residences, etc.
Even near the tombs of saints and so on.
Moulay Idriss, who died in 791, was a well-known saint among the British kings of his time. His tomb is outside Meknes and he is one of the most revered icons in the Muslim world.
As elsewhere, Moroccan Muslims' religious worship and individualism are seen by urban Muslims as deviant and politically dangerous, and there have been several attempts to end this heresy.
The most recent one was in the 1930s, but it encountered two difficulties: it was difficult to control the Berber areas in the suburbs, and the number of people with these beliefs accounted for the majority of the entire population, and it was impossible to eliminate them at all.
The majority of the population is composed of Arabs and Berbers, with the remainder being Moors, Jews, and a few other ethnic groups.
The Arabs entered this land with the first invasion of Muslims in the seventh century. 400 years later, some followed Beni Hillal. Spanish Catholics expelled the Muslims in the country.
These Muslims who were expelled to Morocco integrated with the local Berbers and Arabized these Berbers (this is the main factor that makes it difficult to distinguish between Arabs and Berbers today).
A quarter of the population speaks Berber.
Few people know the origin of the Berbers. Berber comes from a word barbari borrowed from Latin in Arabic, symbolizing people from the Maghreb non-Latin family.
The Berbers live in high mountain areas and some desert areas. They can be divided into three groups according to dialects and regions: Rif, Atlas, and High Atlas.
The Moors that Europeans have long referred to refer to the people who live in Maghreb, and even refer to the entire Muslim community. A more correct term should refer to a group of people living in southern Morocco (but also refers to people from Mauritania, Algeria and Mali
people who come).
Morocco once hosted more than 160,000 Jews. By the end of 1960, the Jewish population had dropped to 30,000. This was because Jews had chosen to immigrate to Israel since 1948.
Centuries of commercial ties have drawn many black people from all over sub-Saharan Africa to southern Morocco, especially its oases and desert areas.
Morocco once had a foreign population of 5 million living here, but since the end of the French protected area in 1956, the number has dropped significantly.
