Algeria–Holy See relations
Although Islam is the state religion of Algeria, the Holy See has maintained a comparatively good relationship with the Algerian authorities, with Léon-Étienne Duval being famously recognized as the "bishop of Muslims" after the departure of French colonists.
Algerian Party for Democracy and Socialism
The Algerian Party for Democracy and Socialism ("Parti Algérien pour la Démocratie et le Socialisme") is a communist political party in Algeria. When in 1993, during the Algerian Civil War, Ettehadi was realigned as a democratic movement resisting Islamism, the orthodox communist wing split apart under the leadership of Abdelhamid Benzine to retain its communist legacy.
