A very interesting alternate history for France - the Third Republic ITTL seems to have died with even less dignity than ours.
A few questions, then:
How stable is French governance in Algeria? Do Algerians now enjoy the same rights as other Frenchmen? Is the situation improving or degrading?
The current French president is OTl a centre-right French politician - has this seen any regression with regards to French overseas policy? I note that French Algeria is medium on the HDI, though France is also listed on the world map as a Liberal Republic.
What is the current state of Franco-British relations?
How are the French Foreign Legion doing, especially with their homeland of Algeria still under French control?
Algeria seems to have a much smaller population than OTL, as well as roughly 1/4 of the population being made up of Pieds Noirs - is this just due to Algeria's smaller size, or was their another cause of the population loss in comparison to OTL?
The French government in Algeria is pretty authoritarian, but it is able to be mostly stable, due to strong military support. Algerians... have... rights. Err.
France is a liberal Republic and has free elections, just ownership of Algeria is one of the things considered "necessary" in French politics.
Franco-British relations are strained, but Britain has strained relations with pretty much everyone on the continent.
The reason Algeria's population is smaller is... something I will touch on later.
Thanks. I came into this TL rather late so I am not always caught up with the lore. My apologies if I ask dumb questions again.
No worries!! Totally understandable, I don't care if you were here from the beginning or just joined! No such thing as a stupid question!! <3
