The name was also adopted during the 19th century by units in other armies, especially volunteer regiments raised for service in the American Civil War.

France showed a strong interest in Morocco from as early as 1830. Recognition by the United Kingdom in 1904 of France's sphere of influence in Morocco provoked a reaction from the German Empire; the crisis of June 1905 was resolved at the Algeciras Conference, Spain in 1906, which formalized France's 'special position' and entrusted policing of Morocco jointly to France and Spain.<br/><br/> A second Moroccan crisis provoked by Berlin, increased tensions between European powers. The Treaty of Fez (signed on March 30, 1912) made Morocco a protectorate of France.
