Launched in 1975 by the late King Hassan II, the march was a peaceful demonstration of Moroccan unity and determination in reclaiming the country’s southern provinces.

Inspired by a ruling from the International Court of Justice recognizing historical ties between the Sahrawi tribes and the Moroccan monarchy, the Green March saw over 350,000 Moroccan volunteers march towards the Sahara. This act of defiance united the nation and ultimately led to the liberation of the southern regions.

The annual commemoration of the Green March serves as a reminder of the strong bond between the Moroccan people and the Alawite royal family. King Mohammed VI, in recent remarks, has emphasized the importance of continued vigilance and mobilization to defend national unity and territorial integrity.

Morocco’s efforts to resolve the Sahara dispute have gained significant international support, with countries like the United States, France, and Spain backing its position. The establishment of consulates in cities like Dakhla and Laayoune further strengthens Morocco’s standing on the world stage.
