Stop saying 500 years like its a reasonable argument. THE COLONIAL PERIOD WAS 500 YEARS AGO COLONIZER TRASH. Its a terrible argument in defense of european ownership of African land.
The Spanish exclave cities have been both casus belli and staging grounds for colonial wars on Morocco. Melilla was just a garrison until the Hispano-Moroccan war of 1860 after which they rapidly built a city.
The whole point of owning territory there is to control Mediterranean shipping, not to have a laugh on the beach.
Ok but you get what Gibraltar is for? It's so they could shoot boats right? Same idea there, just a bit earlier. Gibraltar has a city too, I can put a city anywhere. Jamestown was a city.
Tax haven =/= City
You: these are the same thing.
I don't think they're mad about the tax haven, I think they're mad about the territorial incursion.
What incursion? It has been there for 500 years and neither Morocco or Spain existed back then.
It should be part of Morocco. Duh.
When your fortress enclave gets questioned and you’re like “but it’s been there for so long!” Fucking lol.
Lmao, why.
Yeah sure, let's give them two cities that have been spanish for 500 years to the country currently occupying the Sahara and murdering everyone there.

Oh, now i see, so the whole argument was indeed "map look nice".

Ah, yes, minimizing the damages of european colonialization to "making the map ugly" is very fitting for a dumbass like you.
Ahora ya sé como se sentía Sancho Panza cuando lo de los molinos. Dios mío, que turra.

Sure, as i said, it's a city, not a resort. Comparing it with all those turist cities for white people in third world countries is disingenous.

Gibraltar is a tax haven, Melilla isn't.

You just compared them, what's your point?
