And Morocco will try it best to remain neutral or will they pick a side. The Moroccans will likely try to stay neutral but both sides would try to court them. Maybe it join the allies who land there and use it to invade French Algeria.

French Algeria surrounds Morocco, do the allies give them a part of French Algeria because if so that will cause tension in the future with a independent Algeria who will not like it that the allies give away territory they consider to be part of Algeria.

That is possible, but Algeria was considered part of the French metropole. I don't think they're giving any of that away.

An independent Morocco creates a lot of butterflies. The Anglo-French Entente is an Egypt for Morocco swap. What do the British offer the French instead?
Would the Entente remain just a colonial deal? The German protests drive the British and French together. Would the Germans be more subtle to an Anglo-French deal that didn't infringe on German rights?
