Algerian National Liberation Front
The Algerian National Liberation Front (FLN) was a political and military organization formed in 1954 to fight for Algeria's independence from French colonial rule. The FLN aimed to unite various nationalist groups and mobilize the Algerian population against colonial oppression. It played a crucial role in the Algerian War of Independence, which lasted until 1962.
After achieving independence, the FLN became the ruling party in Algeria, establishing a one-party state. The organization focused on nation-building and socialist policies, shaping Algeria's political landscape for decades. The FLN remains a significant part of Algeria's history and identity.
