#Beautiful Spring Moments#Many people can't tell the difference between Monaco and Morocco, and make jokes because of this:
During the World Cup, Morocco will win the world powerhouse Spain Portugal Erxia to advance to the semifinals, and then many of our netizens ran to Monaco Club to send blessings, and the result was embarrassing, Monaco Club said we are trying to participate in the next edition [laughs]
In fact, the two countries are very different.
Monaco
Located in the southwest of Europe, just south of France, is a European country, its area is only 2.08 square kilometers, including 0.5 square kilometers of land reclamation, is a small country, basically equivalent to a small town two kilometers long and one kilometer wide.
Monaco is surrounded by France on three sides, bordering the Mediterranean Sea in the south, with a border length of 547 kilometers and a coastline of 48.6 kilometers, with a population of about 39,150 people, only 9,611 Monegasque nationals, and the rest from 130 countries around the world.
It is a country, China, the second smallest country in the world, a small principality, a bit like the Vatican, in France.
Although the country is small in size and scarce in natural resources, its economy is very developed, the people's living standards are very high, the per capita GDP is as high as 69,380 euros, the world's first, the gathering place of the rich.
I once saw the 80-year-old grandmother carrying koouqi as a vegetable basket on the blogger Uncle Mo, which really envied a large number of beautiful women.
There is no personal income tax to pay in Monaco, attracting immigrants from around the world's wealthier tax avoidance. The economic pillars are mainly the tertiary industry, tourism, banking, insurance, stamps, gaming, etc., among which casinos and stamps are more famous.
In terms of diplomatic relations, Monaco has diplomatic relations with 135 countries. The mainland established consular relations with Monaco on 16 January 1995 and diplomatic relations at ambassadorial level on 6 February 2006. Since the establishment of diplomatic relations, bilateral relations have developed steadily.
Morocco
Morocco is an African country located in northwest Africa, with an area of 459,000 square kilometers, bordered by Algeria to the east and southeast, Western Sahara to the south, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Strait of Gibraltar to the north, and Spain and Portugal.
Morocco is a quintessential Arab country, guarding the gateway of the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean, with a coastline of more than 1,700 km.
The total population is about 36.21 million, of which Arabs account for about 80% and Berbers only 20%. The official language is Arabic, but people usually communicate in French.
The territory is full of mosques, and most of the people here practice Islam.
Phosphate exports, tourism and remittances are the main pillars of the economy. Agriculture has a certain foundation, but food cannot meet its own needs, energy resources are scarce, and more than 95% of basic energy depends on imports.
Although Morocco's total economy has a good ranking in Africa, with a GDP of $126.1 billion and a per capita GDP of $3,416 in 2021, it still depends on government relief for people living in poverty.
The terrain of Morocco is complex, with the rugged Ras Mountains in the east and north, the Sekkala Plateau and the Pre-Sahara Plateau in the east and south, and only a narrow geothermal plain along the northwest coast.
The highest peak is Tubkal Peak, which is 4165 meters above sea level, the Umraibia River is the largest river with a length of 556 km, the Daraa River is the largest intermittent river with a length of 1150 km, and the main rivers are the Muroye River and the Sebu River.
Morocco is blocked by the Arras Mountains due to the southern Sahara Desert airflow, and the climate is pleasant all year round. The northern part has a Mediterranean climate, hot and dry summers and mild and humid winters, a subtropical mountain climate in the middle, mild and humid, with temperatures varying with altitude, and tropical desert climates in the east and south.
In terms of foreign relations, it pursues a non-aligned, flexible, pragmatic and pluralistic foreign policy. Pay attention to the balanced development of foreign relations.
The mainland and Morocco established diplomatic relations on November 1, 1958. Since the establishment of diplomatic relations, economic and trade cooperation between the two sides has further developed, and bilateral trade has grown steadily. There are currently three Confucius Institutes in Morocco, and Morocco has implemented visa-free access for all Chinese citizens since June 1, 2016.
Since Morocco was historically a colony of France and Spain, it has maintained traditional relations with France and Spain. France is Morocco's largest investor and largest creditor and second largest trading partner, while Spain is Morocco's largest trading partner and major donor and has significant investments in Morocco.
Since Spain has a territorial dispute with Morocco, France has a friendlier relationship with Morocco.
Every city in Morocco has a lot of character, there are cities with white houses, cities with blue houses, cities with red houses, there are many ancient cities.
There is a city called Casablanca, now renamed Dalblanca, because the movie "Casablanca" was popular all over the world and is now a famous tourist destination.
To say how to distinguish these two countries, there is a homemade way: Monaco you are like nano, we know that nanomaterials are generally more precious, so Monaco is richer and located in Europe. Morocco is relatively far behind, in Africa.
Is that remembered? Stop being silly and confused. Thank you for your attention and support, I am a good mirror.
