Algeria is the largest country in Africa. In spite of the Sahara desert constituting more than four-fifths of the country’s landmass, Algiers, the nation’s capital, is an oasis of culture and enterprise in the north.
Nicknamed “Algiers the White” for its beautiful whitewashed buildings lining the coast of the Mediterranean, this name has taken on a double meaning as great numbers of Algerians have been washed white as snow by the blood of Jesus over the past twenty years.
Even with significant advancement, there is much work to be done, with 99.9% of the country still unreached by the Good News. The population of Algiers is 2,854,000 and the largest religion is Islam, with 96.5%.
