I've heard that Morocco was kinda sorta the first country to recognize the United States. Was there an Arabic translation of the Declaration that was delivered to the sultan?
Yes, the Deceleration of Independence was translated into German and printed by Melchior Steiner & Carl Cist Printing Co. for the German speaking population in Pennsylvania. They also published translations of Continental Congress resolutions into German as well as Thomas Paine's Common Sense. It was believed that the document was translated and printed by Monday July 8th 1776 and circulated Tuesday July 9th in Henry Miller's German newspaper Pennsylvanischer Staatsbote
