The roundabout in Morocco refers to the village, or rather, a population gathering in which a group of residents resides in general with family, tribal, or geographical ties. This cluster may be concentrated in one location or relatively dispersed. This assembly may be described as a roundabout, either naturally and historically, or through the official authorities dealing with it. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
Residents of each roundabout elect their representative to the local community council.
The authorities appoint agents of an authority to represent them over groups of douars. These agents play the role of a liaison between the population on the one hand, and between the commander, head of the department, the royal gendarmerie, and other state institutions such as the post office, groups and others on the other hand. These agents are called the Sheikh (or Amghar) [7] [8] and the lieutenant colonel, according to the hierarchy. The sheikh works in the area of a group of douars called sheikhdoms [1] [2] [3] [4], and he assists the presenters, each of whom is concerned with specific circuits within the sheikhdom.
In some areas, the sheikh (or Amghar) may play a role in resolving family disputes and other problems that arise between the people of Dizziness.
