Description This is a picture of my wonderful Oc, Safaa Bennani. She is a human representation of the country of Morocco. I would like to thank for making this profile for me, and for the template!

Safaa is a very friendly and family oriented nation. She loves tourists and will even sometimes invite them to dinner with him. She holds no grudges for anyone except maybe Algeria. Over all, she’s a very attractive young nation and the last daughter of of the Amazighen tribe, Masmuda. She spends a lot of time cooking, dancing, and crafting some of her own clothes. She’s very traditional because most everyone in her nation still lives in the past. But it isn’t considered a bad thing at all. She’s very intrigued in new developments, especially the ones involving science. When she’s out in public, she’s perfectly calm and respectful. However when she’s in the company of friends and family in the privacy of her own home, she tends to get a bit loud and proud. She really likes to have a good party, but she avoids alcohol and pork for religious reasons. Yes, she does take leisure in a good Hookah session, as her nation is where the strongest stuff is grown. She doesn’t really emphasize it though because some people just really don’t like to smoke. She has great relations with most everyone in the world and her market place is one of her most prized industries. She’s a fantastic saleswoman because she knows how to speak woman (with jewelry and other cute and beautiful accessories and treasures). She is also most notable for Moroccanoil, properly known as Argan oil. It’s one of her best selling products around the world for providing softer shinier and silkier hair, moisturizing skin, being an anti-aging product, curing acne, healing skin, preventing stretch marks on pregnant women, works as a foot hand and nail treatment, and lastly it moisturizes lips. You just can’t beat the power of Moroccan oil, and Safaa is very proud of it. She’s also very talkative, and can handle quite a bit of rudeness. One thing she absolutely hates or cannot stand, is when people do not reply or attend her invitations. She loves to party often. Moroccans have a very unique way of partying. When she was younger, her father taught her to fight like an assassin in order to keep herself safe. So far it has indeed come in handy, especially during WWII, since she was the main resistor of the axis forces when they tried to take Casablanca. Her main allies are Spain, France, and America, though she has more history with Spain, seeing as in in her younger years, she used to rule almost all of Spain and Portugal. She often shows Spain her flirtatious affections due to their past history.

OMG THE DESIGN IS SOO PREEETTTYYY!!!!! I love it so much! I thought that looking up other arab countries in hetalia would be hopeless since it doesn't feature 90% of them, but here is Morrocco in all her morroccan glory! Though I was really dissapointed that you didn't feature anything of the saharan culture! It was exepected anyway since our culture isn't that famous and that well documented (TΔT) ( But if u do want to add some aspects of it to ur character, just ask me since I'm saharan (saharian?) , I'd be glad!)

I would actually be delighted to hear what you have to say about Saharan culture! I know very little about because like you said, there is very little documentation. I have no questions as I have no idea where to begin or what even to ask, so feel free to drop in my dms and enlighten me :3 I'm always looking to add more depth to my OC, so your perspective is very much welcome :3 I also apologize for my late reply! I've been at ground school training to be a flight attendant.

And I'd love to help you out with the saharan stuff! But I'm really bad at answering vague questions but I'll try! <3

Of course you can! You just go to notes :3 sorry if it seems vague. I can't ask clear questions if I didn't know there were questions to be asked in the first place. So all I really got for ya is to explain Saharan culture :'3

maybe morocco should be older since the country it self is older than spain and france, also her birthday should be november 18th because it’s moroccos national day....

DesertGenesis In reply to LizzyLazyArts [2019-04-09 22:04:02 +0000 UTC]

"Rabat – Also known as “Eid Al Istiqlal,” the commemoration of Morocco’s Independence Day also celebrates the return of the royal family from exile in 1955.
Morocco freed itself from the French colonial rule on March 2, 1956, while independence was granted from Spain a month later on April 7, 1956. Although Morocco gained its independence on March 2, the North African country commemorates the anniversary of independence on November 18 instead,  at the request of late King Hassan II." - www.moroccoworldnews.com/2018/…
The birthday was debated a long time ago. I had talked / interviewed with a few Moroccan people and the birthday was something that was discussed in full because of how old the actual country is compared to the date of independence. 
As for the young appearance of the country, I'm just not very good at drawing older people, and a friend of mine had said that the population of the country is becoming increasingly younger. This is something I need to investigate a little further before making it something official but fact of the matter is I just don't know how to draw older people. And it really shouldn't matter that much because there are a few hetalia characters that are younger looking than they actually are. For example, Rome and Germania, Ottoman Empire, Ancient Greece, Ancient Egypt. Unless by older you were referring to her physical appearance age? Because I frankly just chose an age I thought fit the way she looked. It is in no way a reflection of the actual age of the country itself, just a guestimate of the age I thought she looked like physically. I don't just use her for hetalia anymore as my flames of passion had been dying little by little as I get busier IRL.
I thank you for your concern and time, and might update later when I have the motivation to do so as my character develops.  <3

Well first of all , I have to say that even tho it is pretty different from what I expected of a Fem!Marocco I am nicely surprised : Probably the best or should I say the prettiest OC I have seen. 
The choice of colors is pleasing and it's nice to see you worked on your character. The dress is nicely done and  pretty realistic.

Now I truly wish you good luck for your future works and hope to see arts about Algeria and a lot of art with Both Algeria and his little sister.

Friendly yours , an Algerian dude who is passing by for the art !

I actually had no intention of making an Algeria Oc. I had thought about it though. I'm not really good at drawing men. I might eventually though once my schedule clears up. And thank you, I'm really glad you like my Safaa! She actually has many caftans in many different colors, I just don't draw them often because it's not her canon dress. I did so much researching and I continue to keep researching to this day and developing her to make her as accurate and realistic as possible. I hope not to disappoint and that you will get to see her big brother Algeria one day. Aww this makes me wanna draw them now, you're too kind!

Wish you good luck with yout future projects in any case cause no matter what you seems to draw : I love it ! Your art is truly nice and cute and I trully hope you will keep enjoying working on North African OCs. If you ever wish for an Algerian point of view on a possible Fem!Algeria or just in the Algeria-Marocco relation don't hesitate , I will gladly be at your service !  \( owo)/ yay 

Plus here are some artworks from an artist ( F-ennecs  ) who's work I truly love and that I wish you will appreaciate as mush as I do :

((I hate classes. They are dull lol you are curious about America?  Shoot ask away. I'll tell you anything you wanna know. What I need is a historical Moroccan timeline. Especially of ancient Morocco. I want to peice together a family tree for my Safaa but I literally cannot find much of anything about it. I also need to know which countries are allies and enemies and for what reasons. I want to know who all her friends are :'D and any interesting holidays or awesome fun facts. I also don't hear much about haunted places. Any dark secrets up there?))

I hate them too TvT and yeah they are so dull! I want to now more about the little places, everyone always talks about the big cities but I want to now what they look like, awesome landscapes, other days celebrated other than thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter! America is really beautiful! I wish I could visit the country someday!
Oh dear! These are some good questions and I'll be more than happy to answer! XD About dark places and haunted places I can tell you tons about it (I'm also making my own researches for a project haha). I also have a book of stories usually told by the elderly!

((My dear, this is the start of a beautiful friendship. I unfortunately have to tell you that America isn't that beautiful. Or at least a majority of it isn't. But we do have a few good places. Hawaii being a good vacation spot. California's Katalina Island is pretty cool. I hear they have some wild buffalo on the island. There's also the grand canyon. Yellowstone national park as well. In Texas we have the rodeo near houston if you come at the right time. We also have the river walk. I love the riverwalk. It's so gorgious. We also have the battleship texas. Maryland has a lot of museums Nevada has casinos, Wisconsin has cheese, and we have the rocky moutain. That I've never been to. There's lots od places in the US but you'll mostly find cities with skyscrapers, ghetto neighborhoods, some suburbs, corn feilds, trees, forests, horribly tiny beaches, lots of grass depending on where you go. 
Do they celebrate halloween in Morocco?))

I think what you told me is already great! Oh don't worry, I'm not much of an idealist anyway and my country is definitely not heaven either! Plus we have grown knowing a lot more about different places! Our geography classes made us learn more about France and US economy than everything we learnt about ours for a lifetime XD
I hope one day I could visit there UvU
Riverwalk? Ooooh I think that would be the thing I would like the most!
Aah we do not in fact XD We don't celebrate Halloween! And Christmas and New year are mostly used commercially as well XD How about we go on Skype or anything like that? Or notes if you want XD I don't think putting all of this on your deviation is comfortable right? XDDD By the way the taksheta is beautiful on the drawing! ♡

((Is that how you spell it? Whoops I made an error @.@ thank you! It was purely based off of one I loved on a Turkish singer who went to Morocco but it is a Moroccan outfit and it was red like the Moroccan flag so I thought it was appropriate. Elegant yet simple. Some tekchita's have way too much bling and I'm the kind of girl that likes simple things XD Such a beautiful national dress. The Moroccan tekchita is an inspiration for many prom dresses here in America.))
