211 Morocco

Red with a green pentacle (five-pointed, linear star) known as Sulayman’s (Solomon’s) seal in the center of the flag. Red and green are traditional colors in Arab flags, although the use of red is more commonly associated with the Arab states of the Persian Gulf. The pentacle represents the five pillars of Islam and signifies the association between God and the nation. Design dates to 1912.

The interior of the Hercules Caves near Tangier. At high tide, Atlantic Ocean waters flood the caves, which are part natural and part man-made. The man-made section was used in the past by Berber people to cut stone wheels from the walls to make millstones, thus expanding the caves considerably. The lower right shows evidence of the millstone cutting.
