Edwige Fenech was born in the city of Annaba, Algeria. When he was born it was still part of French Algeria however. She is an actress and was born in 1948.
During World War 2, Algeria was still a colony of France and thus a part of the Allied Powers at the war's outbreak. Upon France's defeat to the Nazis, Algeria came under control of Germany and Vichy France. They were liberating during Operation Torch, along with the rest of North Africa, and thereafter contributed substantially to the Allied war effort.
Algeria used to be part of France (although Algerians call this period colonization). As a result, French was the official language of Algeria from 1830-1962.

France has never actually "invaded" any part of Africa. For a period of seventy years, from the 1890s to the 1960s, France had a number of colonies in Africa, notably Algeria and Morocco, and on the west coast of Africa.

Algeria was colonized by France in 1830, marking the beginning of a lengthy period of French rule that lasted until 1962. During this time, Algeria was considered an integral part of France, leading to significant cultural and political changes. The country fought a brutal war of independence from 1954 to 1962, ultimately achieving sovereignty and ending French colonial rule. Before French colonization, Algeria was part of the Ottoman Empire for several centuries.

The answer you are looking for is FRANCE, but this is incorrect. Algeria was never a colony; it was annexed to France and was under French civil government (as opposed to all other French colonies were under appointed governments). Additionally, prior to French control, Algeria was a vassal and occupied territory of the Ottoman Empire, which could be seen as a colonial parent (in a non-Eurocentric model of colonialism).
