When did Berber women got more rights?
This response will use the term Amazigh which is the proper term for Berber. It depends entirely on the country, what is meant by "more rights", and which distinguishing factor is more important (Amazigh or Woman). With the exception of Morocco and Tunisia, Amazigh women in most North African countries (Algeria, Mauritania, and Libya) have minimal rights. Moroccan rights that extend to all women have had a harder time penetrating the mountains where the larger Amazigh communities are (since they are farther from the coastal cities). Women's rights, especially among Amazigh, are slow to change and most Amazigh women are still treated differently and less than the male members of their community. Of course, there are certainly strong Amazigh women, but by and large they are far away from equality.

Is Morocco an Arab country?
When the Arabs conquered Morocco during the Rise of Islam, they originally made a distinction between themselves and the indigenous Amazigh (Berber) Tribes. When Morocco became independent of the Ummayad Caliphate in the 700s, Arabs began to intermarry with Amazigh relatively freely. Most Moroccans are now a mix, genetically, of Arabs and Amazigh. However, most Arabs use the Arabic Language as a way of deciding who is an Arab more than they use genetics. Most Moroccans who speak Arabic or Derija-Maghribiya (the Moroccan dialect of Arabic) both consider themselves and are considered as Arabs. Moroccans for whom their primary language is an Amazigh language (such as Tarifit, Tamazighit, or Tashlichit, among others), consider themselves Amazigh. Foreigners typically do not note a physical difference between Amazigh-identifying and Arab-identifying Moroccans.

No, the Moors are a particular sub-group of Muslims.The term "Moor" is actually a derisive term used to refer to Amazigh or Berber peoples of North Africa and those who lived in Spain in the Middle Ages. After 680 C.E., most Amazigh had converted to Islam and led the Islamic conquest of Spain. However, the Amazigh did not have power in Spain until the Arab Umayyad Dynasty died out. The Almoravid and Almohad States were both Amazigh-led and numerous Taifa-States were also Amazigh-led. However, there were also Arab-led Taifas, Muladí-led Taifas (Muladí refers to native Iberian Muslims), and Siqlabi-led Taifas (Siqlabi refers to Slavic Slaves who had been imported to Spain by the Muslims). The last Amazigh-led Taifas fell to the Castillians and Aragonese in the mid-1200s. The final Spanish Islamic State, the Nasrid Kingdom, was an Arab-led Taifa, which fell in the 1492.
