Effects
|| ==The French introduced bureaucratic systems and after imperialism, Morocco adopted these ideas. The system didnt help the poor people, it only increased poverty. Today Morocco is still trying to change and move away from those systems. French is one of the official languages of Morocco, this shows the lasting impression of French imperialism.== ||
 * ==Colonial Response== || ==Native Moroccan people were not happy with the changes France was making. In schools, they were only teaching French history and culture, they completely disregarded Moroccan language and religion. The French adopted the idea of assimilation, where the natives of Morocco had to conform and fit into French culture. Out of a new well educated youth class, many nationalist groups began to arise. Their goal was to restore power to the Moroccan people. One of the groups was the Moroccan Action Committee. They came up ﻿with a list of reforms they thought needed to be applied. The nationalist groups wanted the French to put some Moroccan people into government positions and a representative council.== ||
