On the Google home page, Internet users were able to discover, this November 18, a “Doodle” in the colors of Morocco. The search engine has indeed chosen to celebrate the 69th anniversary of the country’s independence with an animated illustration displaying the Moroccan flag fluttering in the wind, with an orange sky as a background.
«Parades take place across Morocco to pay tribute to the country’s long fight for freedom. Moroccan flags, which feature a green five-pointed star on a red background, decorate the streets, houses and today’s Doodle! explains Google in the description of its animation of the day.

Originally, the first “Google Doodle”, published in 1998, was a simple absence message from its two founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, displayed to inform Internet users that they were unavailable… due to participation at the famous Burning Man festival.
But over the past 25 years, “Google Doodles” have become a global phenomenon celebrating events, people, cultures or places. Clarification: it happens that different illustrations are broadcast simultaneously on the home page of the search engine, depending on the geographical location of the home pages.
