Algeria's past is a crucible of civilizations, from the Numidian kingdoms and Roman Africa to the rise of the Rustamid imamate and the Ottoman regency. This show, hosted by Lucas and Luna, plunges into the violent rupture of French colonization after 1830 — the conquest that devastated the indigenous society, the land seizures that turned peasants into sharecroppers, and the settler colonialism that created a two-tiered world. We trace the resistance of Emir Abdelkader, the Kabyle uprisings, and the crushing of the Mokrani Revolt. The 20th century brings the rise of the Parti du Peuple Algérien (PPA), the Sétif massacre of 1945, and the formation of the FLN. The war of independence (1954–1962) is explored in its brutality: the Battle of Algiers, the use of torture, the internment camps, and the OAS counter-terror. Independence under Ben Bella gives way to Boumediene's military state, the 'socialist' experiment, the black decade of the 1990s civil war against the FIS and GIA, and Bouteflika's rehabilitation. We also examine the enduring legacies: the hirak protest movement, the trauma of the war of memory with France, and the struggle for democracy today. The Casbah of Algiers and the Atlas mountains stand as silent witnesses. This is not a linear timeline but a conversation about power, identity, and the long shadow of empire. #History #AlgerianHistory #NorthAfrica #FrenchColonialism #WarOfIndependence #FLN #EmirAbdelkader #BattleOfAlgiers #STifMassacre #OAS #Boumediene #BlackDecade #AlgerianCivilWar #Hirak #Decolonization #Maghreb #FexingoHistory #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.

  • The Forgotten Women of the Algerian Revolution
    2026/09/10
    While history often focuses on military commanders and political treaties, the Algerian War of Independence was sustained by a vast, unseen network of women who served as fighters, couriers, nurses, and organizers. This episode explores the critical role of these women, from the militant activists like Djamila Bouhired and Zoulikha to the everyday helpers who risked everything to support the Front de Libération Nationale. We examine how French colonial forces attempted to neutralize their influence through propaganda and violence, only to find that their resistance only strengthened the nationalist cause. By highlighting figures such as Hassiba Ben Bouali and the contributions of the harkis' wives, we uncover a more complete picture of the struggle for independence that challenges traditional narratives of war. #AlgerianWar #DjamilaBouhired #FrontdeLibérationNationale #WomenInHistory #ResistanceFighters #Colonialism #NorthAfricanHistory #HassibaBenBouali #Zoulikha #Casbah #IndigenousRights #PostColonialStudies #GenderAndWar #FLN #Algiers #FexingoHistory #HistoryPodcast #Decolonization Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • The Harkis and the Silence After Independence
    2026/09/09
    In this episode of The History of Algeria, we turn our attention to one of the most painful and enduring legacies of the war for independence: the Harkis. While earlier episodes covered the FLN's urban guerrilla warfare in the Casbah and the broader military campaigns, we now explore the tragic fate of the approximately two hundred thousand Algerians who served as auxiliaries for the French army. We examine how these men, women, and children were caught between two nations during the final years of conflict, facing execution or abandonment when France withdrew support in 1962. Lucas and Luna discuss the systemic betrayal that followed the Evian Accords, the internment camps in southern France like Rivesaltes, and the decades-long struggle for recognition by their descendants. This is a story of complex loyalties, brutal retribution, and a silence that lasted for generations, offering a deeper understanding of why the Algerian War’s wounds remain open today. #Harkis #AlgerianWar #EvianAccords #Rivesaltes #FrenchArmy #FLN #NorthAfricaHistory #ColonialLegacy #PostColonialStudies #Moudjahidine #PiedsNoirs #IndigenousAuxiliaries #1962Algeria #FrenchMilitary #RefugeeCrisis #HistoricalMemory #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • The Battle of Algiers: Inside the Urban Guerrilla War
    2026/09/08
    In Episode 228, we leave the mountain forts and desert ksars behind to enter the dense, winding labyrinth of the Casbah of Algiers in 1957. While previous episodes covered the broader strokes of colonization and the initial spark of the All Saints' Day attacks, this conversation zooms in on the most intense phase of the Algerian War of Independence: the Battle of Algiers. We explore how Yacef Saâdi organized the Zone III network into a sophisticated urban guerrilla force, using women and civilians as couriers to bypass French checkpoints. We also examine the French response under General Jacques Massu and the 10th Parachute Division’s controversial tactics, including systematic torture and the use of 'disappearances.' This episode contrasts the FLN's disciplined political strategy with the brutal efficiency of colonial counter-insurgency, revealing why this six-month siege became a global symbol of resistance and a blueprint for future urban warfare. #BattleOfAlgiers #YacefSaadi #JacquesMassu #CasbahOfAlgiers #FLN #AlgerianWar #ZoneIII #Colonialism #UrbanGuerrilla #Decolonization #10thParachuteDivision #GermaineTillion #VillaSusini #TortureDebates #NorthAfricanHistory #FrenchMilitary #AntiColoniaLResistance #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
