Why was France so obsessed with keeping Algeria?
Like what is the fascination with making France nafriville even before the current demographic collapse going on?

And you employed them in your armies, fought to keep them, had them working in your government or in positions of bureaucracy, had one as a governor, had to do support campaigns in the colonies to gain the support of tbe subjects.

The French perceive themselves as champions of civilization, having assimilated diverse groups like Bretons, Alsatians, Occitans, Basques, and Flemish into Parisian (AKA French) culture. They believed the superiority of French culture was so obvious that anyone exposed to it would naturally adopt it as they did in France. However, their attempt to impose this same assimilation in Algeria, despite sending thousands of French, Italian, and Spanish settlers, ultimately failed, dealing a massive blow to their self-esteem.

Hm no, when Macron closed all African bases nobody cared.

Now if somebody wants to get serious about sending them back, clashes could erupt but we aren't there yet.
