| Summary: | Abstract: Because of their strategic location and substantial natural resources, North African countries faced imperial rivalry from European countries, particularly France, Britain, and Spain, in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In fact, the Far Maghreb was subjugated to such colonial powers, particularly the French, despite the fact that bitilatyral treaties were signed by France with Spain, Italy, and Britain, sparking opposition from Germany. Furthermore, as a result of such accords, France was able to sign a contract imposing protectorate on the Far Maghreb regions on March 30, 1912, with the condition of splitting the zones of influence with Spain, which occupied the north of the Maghreb. The signing date of such a deal is critical for the Far Maghreb since it cleared the path for the concession of sovereignty over their lands. This study looks into European ambitions to govern the Far Maghreb by enforcing bilateral treaties, as well as the double-protectorate pact signed by France and Spain.
