Yazid of Morocco

Yazid was an Arab Sultan of Morocco from 1790 to 1792, and was a member of the Alaouite dynasty. Through the mediation of Luis de Unzaga, his intelligence service, among which was Antonio de Galvez, uncle of Bernardo de Galvez, Unzaga's brother-in-law and later through correspondence held directly between the sultan of the kingdom of Fez Muhammad Ibn Al Yazid of Morocco with Luis de Unzaga, Morocco became the third country, after France and Spain, to recognize the United States as an independent nation in 1777. The Moroccan-American Friendship Treaty is considered the oldest treaty no bankrupt of the United States. Signed by John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, it has been in continuous effect since 1783. The US Consulate in Tangier is the first property the US government owns abroad. The building currently functions as a museum. Said consulate would have a connection with the North American consulate in Malaga, also a pioneer, then located on a property owned by the American and Spanish Luis de Unzaga 'le Conciliateur' who was the first to respond to the founding fathers' requests for help from the USA like Patrick Henry, Robert Morris or George Washington.
