Azul Brother, Great Video ! I wouldn't underestimate the number of Tarifiyt speaker. Tarifiyt speaker are very widely spread from the City of Nador to Hoceima, Tetouan and Tanger (especially rural areas). In between those big Rif Cities are many Villages that grew very very fast in the last decades and years and became bigger cities. So Riffian population is heavily growing. 1,3 Million is way to low because the government is not doing enough to research sadly. Also to mention Riffians are one of the biggest moroccan diaspora due to government supressing in the past, probably around 1 Million live in Europe (France, Netherlands, Belgium). If I would do an estimation it would be about at minimum 5 Million speaker. Despite that Riffians are a essential part of Amazigh Movement in Morocco (Hirak 2017) and have a huge Amazigh identity which they keep alive despite all the pressure.

Very informative video. I would just like to say that the current north african population hasn't changed much. It was more of a religious/language shift not genetic/cultural shift. Even our dialect is about 10-15% amazigh along with Spanish and French. We still eat berber food, wear berber attire and our architecture/way of living is still amazigh. My mom is 100 percent Moroccan and her dna results were 51% north african/39 percent Iberian/and the rest was Senaglese, Mali and the Middle East. Most North Africans would have similar results, depending on the region.

It is true, the Maghreb was heavily Arabized but the ethnic composition of their population remained mostly Amazigh. This does depend however, as there are major cities in Morocco and Algeria where the population is Arab, whereas most rural regions retain higher Amazigh DNA. This being said, the culture may retain aspects of the former Amazigh culture, but sadly it has still been highly Arabized over history. It would be good to see Arabic ditched in favor of Amazigh languages in Morocco.

Cool video. But It's a misconception that the amazighs were colonised by arabs for thousands of years. In Morocco the Arab Omeyyades were chased in 740 by Maysara Amdeghri after 30 year long war, and Arabs never came back to Morocco since. Since the 8th century Morocco built strong amazigh empires like the almoravids, the almohads, the marinids, the ssadis and so on. It's only after the french colonization when France put a minority of andalousians in power who discriminated against the amazighs and after 70 years of arabisation, millions of amazighs people identify now as arabs even though they're not...

@Che Languages Christianity and Judaism are sister religions. The Judaism you practice is from after Jesus was crucified by nonbelievers, not from Moses' time. In many religions, believers literally believe their scripture is from a god. For someone who claims to like languages, you know Hebrew wasn't unique and didn't come from a fire burning bush on Mount Sinai. And that the beliefs of the Hebrews that became Judaism came from earlier Semitic people's and Zoroastrian Iranic beliefs. So, stating that another's religious messiah is false is discriminatory. If your channel is Jewish, as you say, you should put that on the title. Specifically, say your channel is exclusively for Jews and not for gentiles. But since it's KZread, you will transmit to a greater audience. I watched your videos in spite of your lazy speaking tone because it had interesting information. But the moment you belittle another's religion, you cross the line. Christianity is indigenous to Canaan/Holy Land and should be respected by the current occupants, aka Israel and Israelis. If someone says similar things about the Old Testament and calls your claims false you will view it as racist and antisemitism but when you do exactly that to others you hide behind the cloak of your "beliefs".
