It is a little ironic isn’t it? Lol. That being said tho I wish they’d reached out earlier and I would have used the link to give Simon some of that sweet, sweet ad money because I’ve been using keeps for a few months and admittedly it does work.
The city's name is also immortalised as an avenue name in Jakarta, due to Casablanca being one of Jakarta's sister cities. It houses many shopping and business centres
I passed through there from Marrakesh to Rabat. Did a tour of the city... had a look at the Mosque, had a delicious lunch there as well. Traffic there sucked really huge. When we were traversing the city to get to the train station to continue the journey to Rabat, it was bumper to bumper.
"In all the gin joints, in all the towns the world, and she walks into mine.........." I've seen Casablanca about a hundred times and never get sick of it. Here's looking at you kid.
Bogart never said "play it again Sam". From memory he said "you played it for her, now play it for me Sam". The scene at the end with the aircraft was actually a scaled down Dc-3 with former "Munchkins" providing the crew for said Dc-3. It's all a matter of camera angles and scale.
Great video. I think you had a slightly deviated approach to present the city. True it is a business tourist destination but the average tourist won't be able to appriate this part. But in fact the most shining part of the city is its role as a financial hub bridge between Europe and Africa. Casablanca is hosting headquarters of several companies and banks operating in several european and african countries.
An Episode of Geographics about my Beloved City, well that's what we call a nice surprise, Mr Simon Whistler, I've been watching your videos for years now, and today you made a Moroccan Citizen, born and raised in Casablancaz the happiest man on earth, thanks a million Sir ... Cheers from Casablanca ... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤
Your advertisement about hair loss had me busting!!! Thank you so much for a great laugh. I'm 30 years old so I may need to look into that product sooner then later
Uau!! I'm Portuguese and I had no idea we had a part in casa blanca. Great video!! Love it every time people can see our tiny country was once a force to be reckoned with!
I would love if you could cover the rest of the 7 wonders of the ancient world. The pyramid episode has me hooked. I especially wanna know more about the gardens of Babylon.
Feeling Simon's mood here - I lost all of my hair this year due to alopecia (oh, 2020, you're such a fun year!) and I'm a woman. No Keeps (or shampoo, conditioner, or hairstyling products) for me either!
I have holidayed in Morocco and it is a wonderful country. Rick's Bar in Casablanca is modeled on the film studio set in Hollywood. The coffee is very good and too expensive prices !
Fun fact: The quote "Play it again, Sam" only exists in the movie from a few Mandela effect universes. The quote does not currently exist in this universe (as of the date of this post).
That was exceptionally good, Reminds me of that song "I get knocked down, I get up again, You're never gonna keep me down." and "Location, location, location".
The first time I saw the movie I was surprised at all of the little sayings that came from the movie including the ones that weren't actually in the movie(play it again, Sam)
Every time I watch a biographics or geographics video, Simon mentions 3-4 things in passing that I want to see full videos of... These guys will never run out of content, that's for sure
As my wife is from Morocco I've been to the country many, many times and unfortunately Casa is my least favorite place there. Big, dirty, polluted, crowded, horrible traffic. Not a fan. Try Marrakech, Fes, Essouira, or Ouarzazate first.
I haven’t been to Casablanca but I have been to Agadir and Marakesh. They were both beautiful places. We lived in Germany at the time and used a German tour company for our trip to Morocco. From the airport to the hotel area there were checkpoints at every intersection. When my husband and I left the hotel grounds we had “undercover “ minders following us around. We didn’t care much, we were after all American soldiers on leave. We were open minded and respectful of the people around us and we had a really great time. I think the only time I got a little miffed was when we were leaving and the female officer was giving me a hard time going through security, something about not taking Moroccan coins out of the country. (It’s not allowed apparently) other than that I would go back again.
I really enjoy watching him/you too quite literally I appreciate that he/you have the camera stand/tripod and then the edit as an addition a wonderful combination and informative the holy Trident of (informative) entertainment 😂🙏🏼 Keep doing what you do much love and positive vibes stay healthy
A very related story, but actually quite different, would be an account of Tanger (or Tangier as it is known in the West). It's nearby and quite abit smaller than Casablance, but in my visits to Morocco, I found Tanger much more fascinating than the much vaunted Casablanca. Its history is wild, but sadly (almost) no one goes to Tanger.
The ability to laugh at oneself is a sign of a world class entertainer, to open with it, with a jab at your sponsor, borders on the insane. Awesome. Love it.
So Morocco not only was the first nation to recognise the US but also supported the revolution that birthed it? I'd be interested in knowing the opinions of right wing Islamophobes in the US on this fact
At 14:53 for a second I thought the music from Enderal was playing! Got my hopes up, there's some amazing BGM in that mod. Definitely want to play it some more now, heh
Morocco is also the country that has Africa's first high speed rail lines with trains that have a top speed of 200mph running from Casablanca to Tangier. Like the US Acela, they are based on the French TGV and built by Alstom.
Hey Simon, would love you if you did a Geographics vid on The Pink and White Terraces, the '8th Wonder of the World' destroyed by a Mt Tarawera a volcano in colonial times in New Zealand. It's a great story with a fascinating history.
1:58 "Native European and Arab influence" I get what he's saying but I don't think the Europeans can exactly be called native in this context as Morocco is in Africa...
Probably meant this as what was relatively accepted as being native in that region. My guess would be at least 2nd generation European descent. There isn't really strict rules on what defines native.
hey matthew -- for what it's worth, the video script reads "Native, European, and Arab Influence." We were trying to emphasize how it's a melting pot of African, Arab, and European influences.
I visited Casablanca in 1999 and I thought it was one of the most dreary cities I have ever been to. There was really not that much there to see other than the Mosque and the very interesting souq. I am glad to here they are trying to spruce it up a bit.
I live sixty miles south of Casablanca and really must agree, there is little to love about the city. Few tourists visit Casablanca as there is very little to interest tourists other than the Hassan II Mosque.
Who noticed the 'ghost', seen very briefly as a reflection in one of Simon's framed pictures when he was talking about the assassinated French admiral? Simon is always entertaining.
Star Trek - The Next Generation even had a tribute episode in the 1st season, "We'll Always Have Paris". The Enterprise responds to a distress call, and Picard runs into an old flame, one that he ran out on in Paris when they were to meet up.
If any of you don't enjoy Simon's presentation of detailed history, and you feel you have to leave a thumbs down, then just don't watch. He has never been a hack. Sounds like you people are who give it a thumb's down. It's always a short capsule of history in one are of the world. Learn something!
Hi Lynn, I liked your comment that ended with "Learn something" :-) I'm setting you some homework if you are up to the challenge. Simon said "... the barbary priates would run up and down the mediterranean coast stealing from villages and robbing wealthy european ships." Let me know if you think this is a reasonable summary of their activities ? I've never given a thumbs-down to Simon myself - I like him too much - but I'm hoping you'll figure out why some people do so. History is too important to miss out (perhaps deliberately) the worst parts. My assumption is that the thumbs-down are not for missing out important parts of history, but for missing out parts selectively that someone less generous than myself (or you) might consider to be partisan.
I really enjoyed this one! I have been planning a trip to Casablanca but now the pandemic has hit and I don't know what will happen. If I can go in December or January 2021 I'm going! P.S. Simon...from one cue ball to another, you're head looks great.
My advise as a moroccan is : For now , visit Tangier , Marrakech , Chefchaouen , Hoceima ...etc . As for Casablanca give it 3 years from now , since they are building new projects there and It will look good in 2-3 years time . Now It's just like a big workshop !
Please fix the terminology used in this video! Berber is often considered a slur for the *amazigh* people who are still a major demographic across Morocco (as well as several other countries). Additionally, the amazigh people can be broken into several other groups that have their own dialects, traditions, and cultural aspects. If asked, most "berber" people will say they are amazighi, or their particular sect (rifi, saharawi, zayanes, kabyle in algeria, etc) The word Berber is used to relate to tourists who dont know the history or the local culture, and its inappropriate for a Geographics video to use a eurocentric term that is often considered a slur. The amazigh people existed before the Islamic Conquest of the Maghreb and still play a huge role in society today.
I was not aware of this distinction, I have been to Agadir and Marrakesh but the tour guide(who was Moroccan)never explained it to us or even mentioned it to my recollection.
@@medusagorgo5146 to be honest, a lot of tour guides are catering to what people are interested in, and most tourists dont know about amazighi people as a distinction. For people taking day tours especially, they often prioritize other things (French occupation, history of architecture, souk culture, etc). However, there is a lot of evident amazigh culture that just isnt mentioned enough to tourists. Couscous is amazigh. The moroccan dialect (darija) would be completely different without the influence of tamazight and other amazigh languages. There are different groups of amazigh just between the different Atlas mountain ranges! Gnawa (a famous music variety) came from amazigh people, and it's especially famous in Essouira. There are 1001 amazing contributions, but most are still underrepresented in origin ☹ I hope you get to return and see some of the beauty. I highly suggest the Royal Institute for Amazighi Culture (institut royal de la culture amazighe) in Rabat for when you return!
I'm puzzled by your sponsor... Like, It's good to have sponsors, but it's confusing to be like "Hi there, I'm a very attractive man who looks very attractive bald, may I interest you in a product that will contribute to none of that?"
Thanks to Keeps for sponsoring this video! Head to keeps.com/geographics to learn more and get 50% off your first order of hair loss treatment.

So what? Norway has many streets named after it world wide
Fuqu Pal Why are you triggered though ? This video is about Casablanca and Morocco in general not Norway !
Idk why but I find that super cool. Thanks for sharing! The whole idea of sister cities is awesome to me. We're all family :)
I watched Casablanca for the first time a few nights ago and thought it was great, there is literally never a dull moment throughout the entire film
I passed through there from Marrakesh to Rabat. Did a tour of the city... had a look at the Mosque, had a delicious lunch there as well. Traffic there sucked really huge. When we were traversing the city to get to the train station to continue the journey to Rabat, it was bumper to bumper.
I could watch Casablanca every night and still not get bored,everything about it was perfect and the acting was superb.

What did you think was underneath those turbans?
