About this Item

Morocco was in the first half of the 20th century home to 250,000 Sephardic Jews. Yet genealogic researchers seeking Jewish records face significant difficulties. Government records in Morocco were, until very recently, not as elaborate as in European countries (not to say non-existent). In fact, until well into the 20th century, the rulers of Morocco (including the French) did not even control all of the country. The half or so of the country they controlled was called the bled el makhzen (land of the treasury) because that was the area the king could tax. The other part of the country (bled el siba) was under the control of local chieftains. ,1890s HISTORICAL RELIEF MAP CHART SHOWING TERRAIN, TOPOGRAPHY, ENVIRONS, Overall Size including borders : 10 1/2 x 7 Ins .
