Country of the Rising Sun /\ Country of the Setting Sun

I would like to apologize if this thread doesn't find it place here and ask the forum to lock it if so.
I wished to check what the Japanese know about a country most probably unknown for the general public and which might form a sort of magical contradiction between two countries what everything separates as i guess it is the furthest point from japan i guess, An ancient empire called the empire of the setting sun in the past known as Morocco or maghrib literally land of god or extreme west.

Here is some random shots taken from SSC Morocco, there is other famous cities as Casablanca, Marrakech or Fes i didnt wish to flood you with a lot pictures
