The Tafilalt expedition of was a large military expedition conducted by Sultan Moulay Hassan of Morocco in the region of Tafilalt in 1893 in the face of French Algerian expansionism. Moulay Hassan revitalized relations between the makhzan and the tribes and villages of the eastern and Saharan frontier lands.[1] The great expedition to the Tafilalt in 1893 was sent because the sultan feared that disorder there would provide an excuse for French intervention. An army of 15-30,000 marched in a huge loop from Fez to Marrakesh via the Tafilalt oases in company of ther Emir Moulay Mohammed bin Hassan .[4] Again, it did little fighting, but it was greeted with loyal submissions and the payment of taxes, and so buttressed the sultan’s claims to sovereignty.[5]
