Algeria
From Heterodontosaurus Balls
โโWe swear by the lightning that destroys, bythe streams of generous blood being shed, by the bright flags that wave, flying proudly on the high mountains. That we are in revolt, whether to live or to die, we are determined that Algeria should live, so be our witness -be our witness -be our witness!

Algeria, officially full name People's Democratic Republic of Algeria, is a huge country located in northern Africa. He is the 10th largest country in the world, and also borders the 
Mediterranean Sea towards the north.
History
After gaining independence from 
France in 1962, Algeria adopted a 
socialist model. But this was dropped in 1979 as the entire 
communist world in Africa was collapsing.
A growing 
Islamic movement and 
no political freedom are not good things together. In the first round of 
parliamentary elections in 1991, the 
Islamic Salvation Front (FIS) was won. But, to prevent the creation of an 
Islamic State, the army led a coup and canceled the election process in 1992, which led to a violent conflict between the government and Islamist militants who are loyal to the FIS. This caused the Algerian Civil War, which lasted for 10 years and 4 weeks. In Algeria, this was known as the "Black Decade". Finally, the war ended in 2002 and the victorious government offered amnesty to militants who renounced violence.
Algeria has tried to heal and rebuild. There have been some periods of stability, but also protests against 
corruption and lack of 
democracy, especially in 2019. Algeria also got infected with COVID-19 in February 2020.
Economy
The hydrocarbons sector is the backbone of the Algerian economy, accounting for roughly 60% of budget revenues, nearly 30% of GDP, and over 97% of export earnings. Algeria has the ninth-largest reserves of natural gas in the world (2.7% of proven world total) and is the fourth-largest gas exporter; he ranks 14th for oil reserves (2006). His key oil and gas customers are 
Italy, 
Germany, France, the 
Netherlands, 
Spain, the 
United Kingdom, and the 
United States of America. U.S. companies have played a major role in developing Algeria's oil and gas sector; of the $5.3 billion (on a historical-cost basis) of U.S. investment in Algeria, the vast bulk is in the petroleum sector.
People
Ninety-one percent of the Algerian population lives along the Mediterranean coast on 12% of the country's total land mass. Forty-five percent of the population is urban, and urbanization continues, despite government efforts to discourage migration to the cities. About 1.5 million nomads and semi-settled 
Bedouin (Arabic nomads) still live in the 
Saharan area.
