Teodor is right it's an end of 19th c. sboula, what i call a "poor man" sboula, very simple.

But the blade is good, I wonder if it's an old sword cut and reused.

About the inscription I agree it's a pseudo European script, some people think that it could be some berber script, but I can't recognize any letters...

Your sboula is Moroccan.
