About Abdelaziz of Morocco
Moulay Abd al-Aziz bin Hassan (Arabic: عبد العزيز بن الحسن, romanized: ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn al-Ḥasan; 24 February 1878 – 10 June 1943) was sultan of Morocco from 9 June 1894 to 21 August 1908, as a ruler of the 'Alawi dynasty. He was proclaimed sultan at the age of sixteen after the death of his father Hassan I. Moulay Abdelaziz tried to strengthen the central government by implementing a new tax on agriculture and livestock, a measure which was strongly opposed by sections of the society. This in turn led Abdelaziz to mortgage the customs revenues and to borrow heavily from the French, which was met with widespread revolt and a revolution that deposed him in 1908 in favor of his brother Abd al-Hafid. Abdelaziz was born on 24 February 1878 or 18 February 1881 to Hassan I of Morocco and Lalla Ruqaya who was a Circassian concubine who became Hassan's favorite wife. Another important figure in this time was the Scottish drill sergeant "Qaid" Harry Aubrey de Vere Maclean who became part of Abdelaziz's inner circle providing him with entertainment and whatever he desired abroad.
