What European power controlled Algeria from the early 1900s to the 1960s?

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).
