Casablanca is in Morocco. In 1942, Morocco was a colony of France, and France was partitioned in to a German sector and a French sector ruled from Vichy, which took orders from the German conquerors. Casablanca was governed by the Vichy French.

At the end of the movie, Capt. Renault refers Rick to "the Free French garrison at Brazzaville". Metropolitan France may have surrendered to Germany, but away from the homeland most French broke away from the motherland as "Free French".
