Algerians sought independence from French colonial rule primarily due to decades of oppression, exploitation, and cultural suppression. The French government implemented policies that marginalized Algerian identity and rights, leading to widespread discontent. Additionally, the brutal tactics employed by the French during the Algerian War of Independence (1954-1962) galvanized nationalistic sentiments and a desire for self-determination among the Algerian population. Ultimately, the quest for independence was fueled by a longing for sovereignty, dignity, and the restoration of their cultural heritage.

How many Algerians are living in France?

There are different estimations about the numbers of Algerians in France. The French national body of statistics INSEE puts the figure at 1.7 million Algerian nationals. People born before Algerian independence in 1962 are not included, since they weren't at the time any Algerians, but only French citizens. In the number are included only the people holding Algerian citizenship, or dual Algerian-French citizenship. The people of Aglerian descent, holding French citizenship only, aren't included (since they are only French).The largest estimate, by an Algerian-based association, puts the figure at about 4 milion people, but includes all people of Algerian descent, regardless of their date of birth or actual citizenship.
