The People's Democratic Republic of Algeria, is located on the northern coast of Africa. It is bordered by the coastal plains along the Mediterranean Sea in the north, and the Sahara desert in the south - which covers 80% of the entire country.

After a bitter war of liberation, Algeria adopted a one party socialist system of government. However, independence and the socialist political system that followed have failed it dismally. Since independence, the government zealously encouraged the development of an Islamic Arab socialist state. Proselytism is not allowed. Because of this, opposition to the gospel is intense, and the option of the gospel has never been fairly presented. Most of Algerias various peoples remain "unreached" with the Gospel of Jesus.
