Events

This was the year that Algeria's revolution against the tyrannical colonialism of France officially ended after the peace talks in March of that year between the NLF (National Liberation Front) and the French government. This was followed by a ceasefire called between the NLF and the OAS, a secret army determined to keep Algeria a French colony, which was what officially ended the fighting. [1]
