"O Canada! Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North, strong and free!

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee."

History of the Moroccan FlagHistory of the Moroccan Flag• The use of the flag in Morocco as a
symbol of the state dates way back to the Almoravide dynasty (1062-1125 ad).
• Prior to this time, white silk banners were often carried in battle, sometimes with Koranic inscriptions written on them.
• The Almoravides institutionalized this practice. They gave one banner to every unit of 100 soldiers.
• The two following dynasties (the Merinides and the Saadiens) continued the use of the White flag as the symbol of the State.
• The Alaouites (beginning in the 17th Century), which are the ruling dynasties , were the first to introduce the red flag. It was raised every morning and lowered every evening on the fortresses at Rabat and Sale.
• The green Sulayman star on the flag was introduced in 1912.
Etiquett of the FlagEtiquett of the Flag
Due care and
consideration
must be taken to
ensure that the
Moroccan flag is
always flown the
correct way up
A tattered or
faded flag of
Moroccan
should be
removed and
replaced with
a new flag
The Moroccan flag should never be allowed to drag along the ground
The National flag of
Moroccan should
never be flown above
another national flag
on the same staff as
this would suggest
superiority, or
conversely, inferiority
of one flag, or Nation,
over another
