On the occasion of the Festival of Nations' 14th round, organized May 18-19 in Trento, Italy, the Moroccan society, along with the youth association of the Moroccan Sahara, took part by introducing and celebrating different aspects of the Moroccan culture.
The opening ceremony of the festival warmly welcomed more than forty countries from different corners of the world, including Morocco. The festival, which enjoyed a standing ovation from the representative of Italy, aims at integrating foreigners and immigrants into Italian society and helping them settle there easily.
During the festival, each country exhibited its own cultural aspects. The Moroccan community living in Italy, for its part, presented their customs and purely Moroccan meals. This time, however, the community hoisted the biggest flag of Morocco, particularly in an attempt to draw the audience's attention to the Moroccanness of the Sahara.
Out of patriotism, the Moroccan community introduced Morocco to foreigners and broached on the disputed Sahara, pointing out that the Sahara issue must be resolved at all cost and that the Moroccanness of the Sahara is indisputable.
