Morocco Independence Day 2020
This Doodle’s Key Themes
Today’s Doodle celebrates Morocco’s Independence Day, also known as Eid Al Istiqlal (Festival of Independence). On this day, the North African nation gained its autonomy and officially became a sovereign state.
Today’s Doodle depicts Morocco’s red-and-green flag, which was officially adopted in 1915. The color holds significance as a representation of Moroccan values such as fortitude, courage, and strength, while the green symbolizes pure ideals like peace and love.
Happy Independence Day, Morocco!
