The yearly average temperature is 14 °C (in the north) and 24 °C (in the Sahara). The yearly average precipitation ranges from 400 to 700 mm (in the north) and is less than 150 mm in the Sahara. The yearly average days with rain is less than 100 days (in the north) and less than 30 days in the Sahara. Algeria thus has a semi arid climate in the north which is well suited to horticulture for the most of the year (especially in winter and spring); and has an arid climate in the Sahara. Geography

Extractions: Source: The Library of Congress Country Studies A new generation of Muslim leadership emerged in Algeria at the time of World War I and grew to maturity during the 1920s and 1930s. It consisted of a small but influential class of évolués , other Algerians whose perception of themselves and their country had been shaped by wartime experiences, and a body of religious reformers and teachers. Some of these people were members of the few wealthy Muslim families that had managed to insinuate themselves into the colonial system in the 1890s and had with difficulty succeeded in obtaining for their sons the French education so coveted by progressive Algerians. Others were among the about 173,000 Algerians who had served in the French army during World War I or the several hundred thousand more who had assisted the French war effort by working in factories. In France they became aware of a standard of living higher than any they had known at home and of democratic political concepts, taken for granted by Frenchmen in France, which colons, soldiers, and bureaucrats had refused to apply to the Muslim majority in Algeria. Some Algerians also became acquainted with the pan-Arab nationalism growing in the Middle East.

The surprising first round success of the fundamentalist FIS (Islamic Salvation Front) party in December 1991 balloting caused the army to intervene, crack down on the FIS, and postpone the subsequent elections. The FIS response has resulted in a continuous low-grade civil conflict with the secular state apparatus, which nonetheless has allowed elections featuring pro-government and moderate religious-based parties. FIS's armed wing, the Islamic Salvation Army, dissolved itself in January 2000 and many armed insurgents surrendered under an amnesty program designed to promote national reconciliation. Nevertheless, some residual fighting continues. Other concerns include large-scale unemployment and the need to diversify the petroleum-based economy.

Extractions: ENCYCLOPEDIA Algerian Political Geography Algiers Related Category: Algerian Political Geography Algiers lj Pronunciation Key , Arab. Al-Jaza'Ir, Fr. Alger Pronunciation Key , city (1998 pop. 1,519,570), capital of Algeria, N Algeria, on the Bay of Algiers of the Mediterranean Sea. It is one of the leading ports of North Africa (wine, citrus fruit, iron ore, cork, and cereals are the major exports), as well as a commercial center. Industries include metallurgy, oil refining, automotive construction, machine-building, and the production of chemicals, tobacco, paper, and cement. Founded by the Phoenicians and called Icosium by the Romans, the city disappeared after the fall of the Roman Empire. Many of the Moors expelled from Spain in 1492 settled in Algiers. In 1511 the Spanish occupied an island in the city's harbor, but they were driven out when Barbarossa captured Algiers for the Turks. Algiers then became a base for the Muslim fleet that preyed upon Christian commerce in the Mediterranean (see Barbary States
Extractions: Dune in the Sahara desert The Sahara desert The Sahara has one of the harshest climates in the world. It stretches right across northern Africa, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea. It reaches to the Mediterranean in the north, and to the Niger River in the south. It dominates 11 African countries and covers between 9 and 10 million square kilometres. In other words, the Sahara is considerably bigger than Brazil, nearly three times the size of Japan, and roughly 20 times the size of Norway. Its awe-inspiring scale is well-expressed by the Arabic word erg irq ergs But there is much more to the Sahara than sand; there are mountains (including the Hoggar range in southeastern Algeria) and huge swathes of scrub, jujuba, and other desert grasses. The Sahara is sparsely dotted with green oases. Less invitingly, there are also wastes covering thousands of square kilometres, where virtually nothing exists besides a thin scattering of pebbles on flat, bare ground. More hospitable parts of the Sahara are home to a great variety of wildlife. Day-time heat in the desert can reach a hard-to-imagine 55ºC, while at nightfall the temperature plunges to around 10ºC. Between December to February freezing temperatures are not uncommon at night.

A "republic" was proclaimed in 1958, but in actuality a series of military strongmen have ruled the country since then, the latest being SADDAM Husayn. Territorial disputes with Iran led to an inconclusive and costly eight-year war (1980-1988). In August 1990 Iraq seized Kuwait, but was expelled by US-led, UN coalition forces during January-February 1991. The victors did not occupy Iraq, however, thus allowing the regime to stay in control. Following Kuwait's liberation, the UN Security Council (UNSC) required Iraq to scrap all weapons of mass destruction and long-range missiles and to allow UN verification inspections. UN trade sanctions remain in effect due to incomplete Iraqi compliance with relevant UNSC resolutions.
