Algeria

Algeria is the largest country in Africa, a place where the Mediterranean coast gives way within hours to the Atlas Mountains and then to the vast silence of the Sahara. Sand dunes, Roman ruins, and whitewashed port towns coexist across a territory so large that France, Germany, and Spain could fit inside it. The pace of daily life is shaped by Arabic and Amazigh traditions, the call to prayer, and the long afternoon heat.
