Bombardment of Tangiers
The Bombardment of Tangiers took place on 6 August 1844, when French Navy forces under the command of François d'Orléans, Prince of Joinville attacked the Moroccan city of Tangier. The campaign was part of the First Franco-Moroccan War. The bombardment was a consequence of Morocco's alliance with Algeria's Abd-El-Kader against France following several incidents at the border between Algeria and Morocco, and the refusal of Morocco to abandon its support for Algeria.
