01Why Morocco? The Export Fingerprint

No single product dominates Morocco's exports — the top category holds just 19%. A mosaic this diversified usually signals a larger, industrialized economy.

#Export categoryValueShare
1 Electrical machinery and electronics $9.4B 18.6%
2 Cars, tractors, trucks & parts thereof. $8.5B 16.8%
3 Fertilizers $6.5B 12.8%
4 Non-knitted clothing accesories $4.9B 9.6%
5 Edible fruits, nuts & fruit peels $2.4B 4.7%

Total exports: $50.6B (BACI, 2023 trade flows). The treemap you played is drawn from exactly these numbers.

Together the top five categories cover 63% of Morocco's export basket — the rest of the chart splinters into the small mosaic blocks along the edge. In Tradle terms: the skill was recognizing the big blocks, not memorizing the fringe.

02How to Solve It

Start from geography rather than a single product. Anchor with a central country in Africa, then use the arrow and the mid-sized blocks — Cars, tractors, trucks & parts thereof. is the tiebreaker between lookalike neighbors.

If you used the hint ladder above, the ideal exit was Hint 1 — geography narrows this one faster than products do. Every 1% of proximity equals roughly 200 km, so read your percentage as a radius, not a verdict.

The general method — anchor guess, arrow, proximity math — is covered in our how to play Tradle guide, and the signature-exports cheat sheet lives in the strategy section.
