History

The Morocco Peace Medal was created by Royal Decree on November 21, 1927. The medal was awarded to those who served in the military during the completion of the military action in the North Zone.

The medal was extended to French recipients and there is a variant where the inscription on the reverse is in French rather than Spanish.
