The National Liberation Front was formed in 1954 from smaller liberation movements in the Algerian rural interior region. Attacks were launched on the more developed and “Francophone” coastal zone. All-out guerrilla warfare ensued, and many died on both sides of the conflict.
On 18 March, 1962, the French finally came to terms and signed the “Evian Accords”. Before long, a vote was allowed on the issue of independence, and it passed overwhelmingly.
