Why do you think the capitals of Algeria Tunisia and Libya all lie on the Mediterranean Sea?

Cities on a coast are good for strategic purposes and for things like trade and commerce. So lots of capital cities are coastal. The Mediterranean Sea is an important one and as there are a lot of countries that surround it, having a major city on its edge is good for any country. Algiers, Tunis and Tripoli are on the coast for those and other reasons.
