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 Battle of Mazagran: Algeria's Forgotten French Garrison That Refused to Surrender

    The Battle of Mazagran: Algeria's Forgotten French Garrison That Refused to Surrender
    2026/06/05
    In February 1840, a tiny French garrison of 123 men in the coastal fort of Mazagran held out against thousands of Emir Abdelkader's fighters for four days, surviving on nothing but courage and gunpowder. This episode tells the story of Captain Lelièvre and his men, their desperate defense, and how the battle became a propaganda tool for both sides. We explore the strategic importance of Mazagran, the brutal siege tactics, the role of the Foreign Legion, and the aftermath that shaped French colonial policy. Along the way, we dig into the legend versus the reality of the battle, and what it reveals about the asymmetrical warfare that defined Algeria's conquest. A tale of endurance, mythmaking, and the human cost of empire. #Mazagran #BattleOfMazagran #CaptainLelièvre #EmirAbdelkader #FrenchForeignLegion #Siege #Algeria #ColonialWarfare #1840 #Propaganda #AsymmetricalWarfare #NorthAfrica #FrenchColonialHistory #AlgerianResistance #History #FexingoHistory #MilitaryHistory #AlgeriaHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • The 1849 Zaatcha Siege: France's Most Savage Conquest in Algeria

    The 1849 Zaatcha Siege: France's Most Savage Conquest in Algeria
    2026/06/05
    In 1849, a small oasis town in the Zibans region of Algeria became the site of one of the most brutal and little-known episodes of French colonial expansion. The siege of Zaatcha pitted French forces under General Herbillon against a determined resistance led by the marabout Cheikh Bouziane, who had declared a holy war against the French occupation. For 51 days, French troops besieged the fortified palm grove, facing fierce resistance from local fighters, including women and children. When the oasis finally fell, the French exacted a horrifying vengeance: the town was razed, its palm trees cut down, and hundreds of prisoners were executed or deported. This episode explores the strategic importance of the Zibans, the role of millenarian religious movements in Algerian resistance, the tactical challenges of desert warfare, and how the slaughter at Zaatcha foreshadowed the total war tactics that France would later employ across Algeria. We also examine the controversial figure of General Herbillon and the aftermath of the siege, which left a lasting scar on the collective memory of the Algerian people. #Zaatcha #CheikhBouziane #GeneralHerbillon #Zibans #1849 #FrenchColonialism #Siege #Algeria #Resistance #Marabout #Oasis #DesertWarfare #TotalWar #Biskra #ColonialHistory #NorthAfrica #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • Algeria's 1846 Col des Beni Aïcha: The Massacre That Shocked France

    Algeria's 1846 Col des Beni Aïcha: The Massacre That Shocked France
    2026/06/04
    In 1846, as France's conquest of Algeria ground on, a column of French soldiers was ambushed and annihilated in the rugged Col des Beni Aïcha pass near Kabylia. The attack, led by Kabyle resistance fighters under the banner of Emir Abdelkader, sent shockwaves through Paris and hardened French military policy. This episode unpacks the battle's details — the terrain, the tactics, the survivors' accounts, and the aftermath that accelerated the brutal scorched-earth campaigns of General Bugeaud. We explore how the Col des Beni Aïcha became a symbol of Algerian resistance and a turning point in France's colonial war. Names like Colonel de Montagnac and the zouaves feature, alongside the geography of the Djurdjura mountains. A lesser-known but pivotal clash that reveals the human cost of conquest. #ColDesBeniAïcha #AlgerianResistance #EmirAbdelkader #Kabylia #FrenchConquest #GeneralBugeaud #ColonelDeMontagnac #Zouaves #Djurdjura #1846 #ScorchedEarth #ColonialAlgeria #BattleOfThePass #NorthAfricanHistory #AlgerianHistory #FexingoHistory #History #MilitaryHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
