Morocco never really got colonized by the french. Instead it became a protectorate of France. Disorder increased until Sultan of Morocco Abd al-Hafid besieged by Berber soldiers in his capital city Fes, he was forced to ask the French to rescue him. When they had done so, he had no choice but to sign the Treaty of Fez (March 30, 1912), by which Morocco became a French protectorate. In return, the French guaranteed that the status of the sultan and his successors would be maintained. So Morocco became a protectorate of France in 1912.
