Spain is in Ceuta because it was part of Al-Andalus. after 1492 it became NOT a migration point but an EXPULSION point.
#Morocco has been complicit with #Spain since the days of the Hapsburgs. they helped La Corona in #deportations of spanish moros, sefaradÃs and even iberian ethnic groups like basque, gallegos, catalanes.
#Marruecos is to #España what El Salvador is today to #Trump and #MAGA #Project2025.
Spain’s first sugar plantations were worked by moro & sefaradà slaves in Morocco.

I'm learning that Spain has a colony in North Africa, and wondering why the mid 20th century decolonial struggles missed that one.

#debtPrisons are part of the #MAGA #Project2025 plan to copy the Hapsburgs’ game plan in Spain BUT!
each wave of deportations (expulsiones) temporarily enriched a handful of people while the crown became a money pit and the country had no sovereign wealth to show for their so-called empire.
all those italians that ended up all over américas in the 1800s? collateral damage from the crown selling off their european lands to liquidate debts.
btw: Cervantes wrote El Quijote in a debtors’ prison.
