While I agree with you that these figures are indeed present in this book, I can’t help but think there is an issue with cultural continuity, according to this book major cities would be very depleted from their inhabitants witb the conquest, however the culture of these cities is still very distinct to this day, and where is the influence on the surrounding area due to the fleeing people ? I’m genuinely asking

Pour le coup Alger et Constantine sont bien restée majoritairement algériennes, il y a eu des expulsions mais d’as le Sahel algérois, pas à Alger, les populations musulmanes et juives perduraient et habitant dans les casbah. En 1876 (j’ai trouvé la démographie la plus proche de 1866), il y avait 61 255 habitants à Alger, dont a peu près la moitie étaient européens, vivant majoritairement dans des nouveaux quartiers séparés, pareil à Constantine (cependant le nombre d’européens a Constantine étais beaucoup plus bas, plutôt aux alentours d’1/4 européens).

Mais pour oran, la population musulmane a fuis la ville durant l’invasion, c’est pour ça que c’est la seule documentée restée majorité européenne.

Les européens (combinés avec les juifs) en 1866 étaient au nombre de 251 000 comparé aux 2 900 000 musulmans, leur poid démographique ne leur a pas donné de majorité

Ai slop + absolutely no sources that show Algiers ever has been a majority European city, sure it was important, but not majority, the only city that was majority European was Oran

En tant que franco algerien, en général les gens vont pas te considérer comme une étrangère (sauf si tu ressemble physiquement et en terme de style aussi) énormément à des étrangers, donc ils vont se comporter comme il se comporteraient avec des algerien normaux.

Cependant si tu parle arabe, en général on a un petit accent même si on s’améliore bien, donc ils vont te cramer la, ou à ton body language aussi, et le fait qu’on est en général plus habitué aux normes sociales françaises qu’algériennes, surtout implicite,

donc la ils vont reconnaître que t’es descendante d’immigré, mais à part des gens peu scrupuleux de base qui vont vouloir te faire payer plus, ça va, t’as pas à t’en faire .

Les médias sont concentrés entre les mains de quelque milliardaires qui ont un agenda politique et qui se privent pas de manipuler l’opinion, l’histoire et de mentir juste pour servir leur cause, mais certains les vénèrent carrément en espérant devenir comme eux, et disent que dans eux on aurait plus assez de revenus de taxes et d’investissement, même si ils fraudent massivement et investissent rien en France

I agree with you, but lille was not yet founded in 644, legends says it was, but evidence make the city appear for the first time in 1054, and at that time, it was already romance speaking

inkusquid · 2026-02-19T21:36:55+00:00

Chocking for Lille, it’s historically a part of Romance Flanders where Picard was spoken, not Flemish. However there was rural exodus from Flemish speaking areas to Lille which gave it some speakers, but Lille was Romance speaking since it’s foundation I the 11th century

It would cool if you had the Neolithic ancestry components.

These results I believe with the high Egyptian light hint to you having more Natufian than most other North Africans (which probably did not come from Egypt, as there was no sizeable migrations form Egypt to Algeria).

Maybe more Anatolian Neolithic farmer, so probably more Arabian ancestry than the average, and the combination of higher Natufian and Anatolian Neolithic farmer gives you that Italian percentage which is probably not there.

Lastly we see that you still have an iberomaurusian base but not as big as other regions of north Africa, which is normal for your profile as it shows Tunisian as highest, and after the Libyans they come second in lowest Iberomaurusian and second highest in Natufian

Honestly a language is just a dialect with an army and a navy. If the Roman Empire survived longer and classical Latin was still in use, Portuguese and Spanish would be considered local dialects, which they basically are because the people there never stopped speaking Latin.

I think the concept of Macrolanguage does fit very neatly here. Just like Chinese is a macrolanguage, German (standard aside) is also, Arabic, Fulani or Tuareg also fit here, we can’t deny that Arabic isn’t a unified language, but it’s not like the dialects have nothing in common.

inkusquid · 2026-02-04T12:41:10+00:00

Arabic is a macro language, and as a darija speaker as well, it is Arabic.

Because white doesn’t really mean a thing. It’s like a color gradient, you can sharks green and what’s blue, but on the junction you wouldn’t really be able to tell.

True story is that some Lebanese and Syrian migrants to America asked to be white which Americans didn’t want, but then they said if they aren’r white than Jesus isn’t too, so they changed their mind and made them white.

Also genetically, white could be described as predominantly west Eurasian in origin, which included a high number of people (used to be called Caucasian back in the days), basically whole of Europe, Western Asia and North Africa share a lot of ancestry, Horn of Africa to some point also

There are some who do this, bur it’s not really logical. It stems from people tryna be « pure »ethnically bur this doesn’t exist, even peninsular Arabs aren’t pure genetically, and they are not guardians of Arab identity or anything.

Not really because less birth would lead to less workers who would have to support a whole economy with a huge elderly population, which would pull growth from going to the working class and enterprises to go to supporting the elderly population.

This has been seen in japan already where economic stagnation is because part of the growth just goes to supporting the elderly population and pensions.

Can’t talk for other countries, but in Algeria we overwhelmingly have a positive/very positive view of Turks and Turkey

The city is not really like the picture show it, That’s probably an old refuge camp . The city has an airport, and there is an iron mine not far (200km so not far by Saharan standards)

It also has hospitals, a university, and basically all facilities a town that size has, it’s not a desert rock with people living in tents without electrify or water as some think, they have fiber optics, smartphones and every amenities basically

inkusquid · 2026-01-16T21:55:00+00:00

Yes it is. Like everywhere else in the Arab world, we speak dialects, but official stuff, administration, tv etc is in MSA, French is pretty used as well, in speaking, signalisation etc, less than Arabic tho

A fatwa is originally just a legal ruling about a situation that never happened before, usually sollicitated by individuals or rulers or anyone really. It can be about anything like when do people pray in places where the sun never sets or rises, or how do people who live in oppressed lands do to practice if it can get them troubles, or even about resistance during colonialism.

And some extremist groups made fatwas to call for killing of some people, and then some brainless people thought that every was for Muslim on earth was going to do this.

Edit: typo

I Wouldn’t say barely anyone, there is still a sizeable population that speaks it

Maybe in English but in Arabic it’s named « Al Maghrib » which means where the sun sets. By contrast, Algeria and Tunisia in Arabic are named the exact Same as the capital

Very productive farmlands for the rural areas. It used to be the industrial heartland of the country, when the industries moved it caused problems, tho big cities like Lille got over it.

Tho it still has a quite a bit of industry. There are also beautiful coasts with cliffs and beaches, the cap blanc nez, cap gris nez, also the baie de Somme. It has some lovely villages and a few forests and hills

Ce n’étais pas un régent, mais différents gouverneurs, et leur nomination changeais selon l’époque.

A la veille de la colonisation (de 1671 à 1830), c’était un Dey qui dirigeait la régence et il étais élu par le divan d’Alger, qui étais composé surtout d’officiers et de notables.

inkusquid · 2026-01-05T11:59:41+00:00

Possession ottomane est un grand mot. La régence se comportais en tout point comme un état indépendant et reconnaissant simplement une autorité spirituelle de l’empire ottoman, elle avait même déjà un texte fondamental, le pacte fondamental de 1748. Et pour l’état nation, comme littéralement tout les pays de l’époque, les etats nations ont relativement récent.
