📅 1 November 1954 📍 Algerije, Frankrijk

The FLN launched attacks across Algeria and issued a declaration calling for national independence and restoration of a sovereign Algerian state. France responded with expanding military repression. The war’s roots lay in settler colonial land seizure, unequal citizenship, and the denial of political self-determination, despite Algerian service in the world wars.
