After World War II, political movements in Algeria, particularly the nationalist movement led by the National Liberation Front (FLN), were successful in mobilizing widespread support against French colonial rule, ultimately leading to independence in 1962. However, this struggle also resulted in significant violence and loss of life during the Algerian War of Independence, leaving deep social and economic scars. Additionally, the post-independence political landscape was marred by authoritarianism and civil conflict, undermining the initial aspirations for democracy and social justice. Thus, while these movements achieved independence, they also instigated long-term challenges for the nation.

France and Algerian Independence movements.
After World War II, both Vietnam and Algeria experienced intense independence movements against colonial rule, but their contexts and methods differed significantly. Vietnam's struggle was marked by the rise of the Communist-led Viet Minh, culminating in a protracted war against French colonial forces, which ultimately led to the establishment of a socialist state. In contrast, Algeria's movement was characterized by a brutal guerrilla war led by the National Liberation Front (FLN), as it sought to counteract French colonialism amid a backdrop of intense violence and repression. While both movements sought national sovereignty, Vietnam's path was heavily influenced by Cold War dynamics, whereas Algeria's was shaped by its fight against systemic racism and violent repression.
Algeria is classified as a middle-income country rather than a more developed country (MDC). While it possesses significant natural resources, particularly oil and gas, its economic and social indicators, such as healthcare and education, show challenges that prevent it from being categorized as a fully developed nation. Additionally, factors like high unemployment rates and political instability contribute to its status.
