5:47 The cause of the two Moroccos is a bug in the timeline mode. In the actual game, the second Morocco was actually a totally different nation. To make it easier to follow, nations are shown in their latest state in the timeline, instead of showing their constantly changing names and colors. At some point, the original Morocco was annexed by another nation, allowing the second nation to seize their land and reform the kingdom of Morocco through a decision. Their last known state was as this new Morocco, but that is also true for the original Morocco, so they are both shown as Morocco in the timeline.
