The capital of Morocco is Rabat. While Rabat serves as the political and administrative capital, the largest city and economic hub of the country is Casablanca.
Rabat became the capital of Morocco in 1912. This change occurred during the French Protectorate period, when the French authorities decided to move the capital from Fez to Rabat due to its strategic coastal location and more favorable climate. After Morocco gained independence in 1956, Rabat retained its status as the capital.
