Royal Family of Morocco 1: November 2003-July 2005

Lovely pictures of the late king and his children.
It's petty we don't see photos with their mother but many with their nannies.
I like also pictures when the late king was sitting next to his daughters while they were brides in a white lovely suit. Here again I love if we could see pictures of the princesses with their husbands.

Fore sure for the both cases, there are many pictures of the children with their mother and also the princesses with their husdans in the wedding ... but I guess no picture was delivered to public.

they have all rights to keep their private pictures as any normal people do. but maybe one day they will realize there is no harm if they share some of their private pictures for some events with public as other royals do. i don't see any harm if public see the children with their mother or the princesses with their hasbands.

Yes, I agree with you Zineb, they have all rights to keep their private pictures as any normal people do. But I think for the moment MRF still follow their traditions even on small details.

Apart from hasna and I guess her daughters, no idea about the other ladies. I found these pictures of the late king with his children and the last two pictures were taken years before when he was still a crown prince.

Apart from his political history which I think sometimes succeed difficult situations, I can't really undretsand why a king (he is still a human being) can't make his feet get dirty. He can clean them after and even change his pair of shoes. At the end this will be part of joy while he was hunting and in the nature.
The other photo sitting to the table. I don't know if the others were invited or not, but presonally I can't eat and others looking at me!

The current Moroccan Royal family is part of the Alaouite Dynasty. Morocco was a monarchy way before the Alaouite dynasty which is the 7th Moroccan dynasty so far. The first one was the Idrisside.

The following are names of the Dynasties that ruled Morocco:

1 Idrisside dynasty:
2 Almoravide dynasty
3 Almohade dynasty
4 Merinide dynasty
5 Wattaside dynasty
6 Saadi Dynasty
7 Alaouite Dynasty: 1631-Present

The first king in the Alaouite Dynasty and grand-grand--father of M6 is My Ali Cherif. And the current king Mohamed VI (M6) is the 23rd Monarch in the Alaouite Dynasty. It seems to me that the Kingdom of Morocco is not a new country created by France or Britain (2 majors colonizes of past centuries)..The following links give pictures of all the kings of this Dynasty since 1631- present:

He looks ridiculous in all the photos, especially the one where he is having his shoes changed for him. Couldn't he have done this himself? I wonder how the ordinary Moroccan feels about this: times are tough in the kingdom yet they must serve the members of their royal family this way. The Alaouites could end up just like the Pahlavis.

"It seems to me that The Kingdom of Morocco is not a new country", I would just to say this is a real historical fact than an impression.
The name of the country has changed several times since the Phoenicians.
