How did the French colonise Algeria? Was the Algerian economy built on slavery? Who was the revolutionary priest who united Algerians against the invaders? What atrocities did the French commit in the mountains?

They discuss what Algeria was like before the French, the trivial diplomatic incident that sparked the invasion, and early Algerian resistance.
