Morocco:

Morocco is a North African country near France and Spain and bordered by Algeria. During World War II, Morocco was initially nonaligned but was pressured by Vichy France to support Germany in 1940. However, in 1942 the Allies invaded Morocco, and it became a vital Allied supply base. In addition, the Casablanca Conference was held in Morocco in 1943.
