The colonial period in Algeria (1830-1962) refers to the French occupation of Algeria, which began with the landing in Algiers in 1830. This period was characterized by the imposition of a colonial regime that led to profound changes in Algerian society, economy and culture. French colonizers expropriated land, set up a colonial administration and attempted to assimilate the Algerian population through policies of francization.
