Morocco signed an accord with France, which they no doubt regretted, allowing the French to occupy Casablanca and Quijada in return for military training. It was part of a loan deal. Morocco would ultimately end up being bent over by France, and Spain.
This is similar to the current proposal, in a way, to bend Ukraine over and take its minerals, proposed by Donny Trump. It's another bad idea that Ukraine probably would like to give the US the middle finger salute for, but Donny is too dense to understand that life isn't transactional, the pathetic bloated twit.
Well, if nothing else, it gave us a great movie in the end. . .

Wednesday, March 2, 1910. First US military pilot.
1st Lt. Benjamin Foulois became the first US military pilot after making a solo flight on a Wright Flyer.
He'd go on to serve a long, but not uncontroversial career. As a result, he retried unceremoniously under a cloud in 1935. He thereafter warned of the dangers of resurgent German airpower, and he offered to return to service, with a combat command, during World War TWo, but was not taken up on the offer. He died in 1967 at age 87.
