Mixed Morocco

The text states that Morocco was the first nation to recognize the US in December 1777 and holds the record for the longest unbroken treaty with the US.

The analysis of the claims about Morocco and the United States shows different levels of support from the available evidence. The claim that Morocco officially recognized the United States in December 1777 is not fully corroborated by evidence, as formal recognition is documented as occurring in 1786 with the signing of a treaty. The claim regarding the longest unbroken treaty between Morocco and the US is supported by records indicating that the treaty of peace and friendship has been in force continuously since 1786.

Mixed History
In December 1777, Morocco officially became the first nation to recognize the United States as a country.
The evidence shows that Morocco opened its ports to American ships by decree of Sultan Mohammed III in 1777, but formal recognition was solidified by the treaty signed in 1786. Therefore, the claim is somewhat valid but slightly misrepresents the timing of formal recognition.
