Lets say in 1940 France does not surrender but flees to its colonies to fight on with its capital in exile as Algiers. I'm not very knowledgable about ww2 and free France but I am very interested in its affects on Algeria post war
The Tls I've seen about this say that Franco British curb stomping of Italian Libya is highly likely so let's say that happens and French Africa is safe for the remainder of the war.
How many French people would come to Algeria as refugees With the government in exile. How many French troops can feasibly be evacuated there.
Do the French have the ability to use Algeria as a base for industrialisation in order to arm themselves for the next showdown with Germany.
Assuming the rest of the war goes roughly the same (albeit with a boost to the allies) what's the long term affects on Franco Algerian relations and how many of the refugees stay?
This is just a question about Algeria not about the concept of France staying in the war as a whole.
