France and Algeria: Are they as culturally close as the UK and the USA? Or more like France and Italy?

>>211652424 (OP)
They are not culturally connected in any way.

>>211652424 (OP)
Like two fingers of the hand

>>211652424 (OP)
both are basically the same

The elite speaks French. We're still a colony in practical terms but slowly moving away, imo it's because France hasn't had a strong leader since Chiraq.

Why?
>>211653399
The raiders were Turks, Albanians and European converts yet it was the common Algerian people that paid the prize

Dates back to the early 60s and Algeria being a model of socialism.

we're not a colony in practical terms (neither our political alliances nor our economy is dominated by france), you want to see a practical colony look at subsaharan africa, french is spoken officially, a french currency is used, french companies everywhere, french military presence, part of the francophonie organization, french can enter visa-free, etc. other maghrebi countries also fulfill much of these, they're in between subsaharan africa and algeria in terms of lasting attachment to france

what we have is a linguistic and cultural attachment to france, particularly among the elites as you said, which is a remnant of colonialism that's hard to scrub off

Don't tell him, he doesn't give a shit about reality, it's all about an agenda. He also would ignore all the evidence showing raids from the muslim world were retaliatory from christian attacks, and that as you said, it was started/orchestrated by turks and had a ton of renegade europeans enslaving their own (native algerians barely being actual pirates, if even).

>>211652424 (OP)
they are like spain and mexico

>>211652424 (OP)
Lol we have nothing in common. Algerians are muslim subhumans. Maybe the Kabyles are more white so they can pass as French, but that's all.
