Since Morocco acquired independence, relations with Spain havebeen suffering the negative impact related to the contented areas andthe consequent rivalry conditions in both countries. Added to suchnegative factors, the stereotypes and preconceptions held in both areasover the past centuries still today prevent their civil societies from comingtogether.
