Rabat is Morocco's capital but a fraction of Casablanca's commercial size. The Kasbah of the Udayas, Hassan Tower, and Chellah ruins anchor the historical layer. Same Moroccan visa story — 90+90 day tourist window. Underrated as a Schengen-reset hub thanks to direct EU flights.

Editorial estimates. Not financial advice. The 4% rule is a planning anchor, not a guarantee — sequence-of-returns risk and tax-jurisdiction friction (US-LLC / FEIE / state residency) can move the real number meaningfully. See our expat tax directory for the cross-border side of the math.
