The Brutal French Conquest of Algeria
The Brutal French Conquest of Algeria
We are in 1830. The Bourbon Dynasty has been restored and France is on the brink of yet another revolution. The King of France knows his people are angry but in no way quells his efforts to increase absolutism. Instead, he has a plan to distract them. This is the story of the French Conquest of Algeria. #ProjectAfrica

Thank you for watching everyone. Please make sure to check out the rest of the #ProjectAfrica playlist and to share it with friends and family because Africa's history is fascinating and seriously underrated. Also, my YouTube Historian friends put a lot of effort into these videos so they truly deserve it. Merde to all of you!
EDIT: While the use of the term "Barbary Pirates" is not necessarily accurate, since they were mostly corsairs, I still used that term because it's what they are most commonly known and mostly, it's how they were perceived by French people back then – foreign pirates that were enslaving Christians. The point of that segment wasn't so much to talk about the history of Barbary Corsairs but explain the justifications France used to invade Algeria.

Its crazy how they use the same narrative again and again. Nowadays, it is called invasion to fight terrorism, back then, it was invasion to fight barbaric pirates. These pirates according to you, enslaved "millions" of "Christians" but Napoleon at his might instead of freeing his people few miles away from home decided instead to invade the pyramids. Bravo. The true story is this one: The French pirate monarchs didn't want to pay back its debt to Algiers after borrowing wheat, however decided to invade other countries and expand their colonial thirst after they were defeated in Europe.
Colonialism… not good.

There's no French Algeria.

This documentary represents only a small fragment of Algeria's complex and rich history. It is crucial to understand that even the most vulnerable individuals—such as shepherds, women, and children—were subjected to horrific torture during the struggle for independence. What is even more shocking is that this people endured unimaginable suffering and humiliation. Despite these atrocities, the Algerian people displayed remarkable courage and dignity in their fight for freedom. To fully grasp the depth of their struggle and resilience, it is essential to visit historical sites and monuments dedicated to the martyrs, such as the Martyrs' Memorial in Algiers. These places, like the Casbah, are filled with emotion and offer a deeper understanding of the magnitude of their history and heritage.

arab muslims act like they are the victims…years prior they terrorized europe and even conquered part of if (balkans and spain)..now is payback
There was no slave trade, literally none, not more than thousand of salves were selling on these routes, this is just another attempt by KKKauKKkasians to write alternate history as Goebls said "create a lie and keep repeating it until it become a truth"
Algiers population in 1830 was estimated to roughly 20,000 at most. The militia was a little force of 3,000 and the auxilliaries didn'r want to help.
So I highly doubt the figure of 45,000 warriors. It is not mentioned in any known public archive about this subject.
Absolutely wonderful video!! I thoroughly enjoyed it and learnt so much, everything from the production value to the narrative was top notch. This is my new favourite channel.🩵
La ville d'ALGER, s'appelle: the city of ALGIERS, in English, El Jaza'ir in phonetic Arabic, D'zayer in Algerian and Bedrber, Argel, en español and Algeri in italiano, etc., unless it's OK to mix all languages which doesn't sound right, and it would then be best that everyone should say D'zayer.
Dear whoever made this video, you would most likely find it very useful for you and for anyone wanting to know about the history of modern Algeria to read a book about the conquest of Algeria by a French historian M i c h e l H a b a r t, downloadable in PDF format for free.
As always with fake history, Freemasonry is never mentioned.
Great video, mon mec ! I was wondering if you could make a video of how France was beginning to have territory in Asia (in particular Vietnam), starting in the middle of the 19th century (around the time of Napoleon III.
No sympathy for Algeria 🇩🇿. They were one of the Barbary States where they raided international shipping🎸
I got here from 'Adieu Philippine' that old 1960's french movie
🇩🇿🗿 long live Algeria
