Algeria lies in central North Africa, between Morocco to the west, Tunisia and Libya to the east, Mauritania, Mali and Niger to the south, and the Mediterranean Sea to the north. It is the second biggest country in Africa (after Sudan) and the tenth biggest in the world. The different landscapes and climatic regions of Algeria can be very simply pictured as four parallel bands running across the country from east to west. Secondly, (as you travel southwards) come the peaks and valleys of the Tell Atlas mountain ranges, dropping slightly to an expanse of largely barren plains called the High Plateaus. The third band consists of more mountain chains, rising to the south of the High Plateaus, and forming part of the Saharan Atlas range. Sahara desert which stretches southwards from the Saharan Atlas mountains and covers more than 80 per cent of the country. Here you will find some of the most extreme conditions and spectacular sights on the planet. Algerian geography page Algerian virtual journey home page On the Line home page sv=13;

Dune in the Sahara desert The Sahara desert The Sahara has one of the harshest climates in the world. It stretches right across northern Africa, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea. It reaches to the Mediterranean in the north, and to the Niger River in the south. It dominates 11 African countries and covers between 9 and 10 million square kilometres. In other words, the Sahara is considerably bigger than Brazil, nearly three times the size of Japan, and roughly 20 times the size of Norway. Its awe-inspiring scale is well-expressed by the Arabic word erg irq ergs But there is much more to the Sahara than sand; there are mountains (including the Hoggar range in southeastern Algeria) and huge swathes of scrub, jujuba, and other desert grasses. The Sahara is sparsely dotted with green oases. Less invitingly, there are also wastes covering thousands of square kilometres, where virtually nothing exists besides a thin scattering of pebbles on flat, bare ground. More hospitable parts of the Sahara are home to a great variety of wildlife. Day-time heat in the desert can reach a hard-to-imagine 55ºC, while at nightfall the temperature plunges to around 10ºC. Between December to February freezing temperatures are not uncommon at night.

28. Algeria Resource Guide From Arabnet comes the following handy guide to Algerian geography, history, government, culture and business http//www.arab.net/algeria/ Facts and figures aplenty are available http://meria.idc.ac.il/research-g/algeria.html

RESEARCH GUIDE: Internet Resources on Algeria By Lawrence Joffe Algeria's achievement of independence in 1962 came at a high price. Possibly as many as a million people or more died in the vicious eight-year war fought to escape France's colonial grip. In many senses, Algeria is still paying the price for independence. Despite the exploitation of oil and support from pan-Arab or pan-Maghrebi pacts, the nation became engulfed in a new wave of political violence in the late 1980s. Matters escalated after the controversial cancellation of elections in January, 1992, and since then an estimated 120,000 have perished. The post 9/11 world may be coming to terms with the reality of terror, but to Algerians it is an all too familiar phenomenon. Thankfully, the web shows that there is much more to Algeria than this grim legacy. Algeria's rich and inspiring history stretches back to Roman times and beyond. Other sites demonstrate Algeria's remarkable cultural variety and artistic and literary creativity. Algeria has vast economic potential and plays a pivotal role in the Arab Maghreb Union. Under President Bouteflika, Algeria is seeking to rebuild democracy - though not fast enough, say many dissidents and foreign observers. And yet it is "The Crisis" which understandably absorbs most attention, and many charge the government with human rights abuses. What follows is a necessarily skeletal overview of Algeria on the Web. The views expressed in these sites do not necessarily reflect those of the compiler. Some, I admit, are fairly strongly argued; but I have sought to cover as wide a spectrum of opinion as possible, so as to give an accurate portrayal of the diversity of outlooks from Algeria, and Algerians abroad. As ever, MERIA welcomes recommendations from readers as to other worthy candidates for listing.

31. Unreal Cities | Books | Guardian.co.uk thought that Oran, the claustrophobic, mountainbacked, North African setting of Camus' The Plague, was a fictional city - though that's clearly down to my poor Algerian geography http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/booksblog/2008/apr/01/unrealcities

Blog home Unreal cities Some writers re-imagine New York, London or Havana - others prefer a fictional metropolis Tweet this Comments ( Imaginary and dreamlike ... cities tend to do what novelists want them to do. Photograph:M C Escher/Don McPhee When it comes to geographical settings for novels, it's sometimes hard to know the difference between fictional cities and real ones. New Yorker Sarah Weinman recently bristled at finding her neck of the woods fictionalised in a new novel . Why did it rub her up the wrong way? Presumably because no two people's New Yorks are the same. The New York of Paul Auster 's New York Trilogy feels as imaginary and dreamlike as the strange anonymous setting of his futuristic novel In The Country of Last Things. Whereas the New York of his wife Siri Hustvedt's gripping novel What I Loved could be nowhere other than Manhattan. So, even sleeping in the same bed as someone doesn't mean you're necessarily living in the same city as them. Place is a matter of perspective.
