La sua capitale, Algeri, è eccentrica rispetto alla totalità del territorio e si situa all'estremo nord. Secondo paese del continente per superficie, confina a nord con il mar Mediterraneo, mentre le frontiere terrestri si dividono con la Tunisia a nord est, Libia a est, Nige a sud est, Sahara occidentale, Mauritania e Mali a sud ovest, per terminare con il Marocco ad ovest. L'Algeria è membro dell'Unione Africana e della Lega Araba praticamente dal momento della sua indipendenza dalla Francia nel 1962, e ha contribuito fattivamente alla creazione, nel 1988, dell'Unione del Maghreb Arabo (UMA). Costituzionalmente, l'Algeria è definita come un paese (nell'ordine) musulmano, arabo e amazigh (berbero).

| | | MIDDLE EAST: Iran ready for oil-gas cooperation with Algeria | | 2007-06-05 15:14:00 | | Middle East chemicals producers need to diversify if they are to stay ahead in the world market, say leading industrialists. The Gulf states enjoy huge benefits over petrochemicals producers in Europe or the US, where many producers are closing facilities. Cheap gas gives local producers a major advantage over rival emerging producers in Asia, delegates at the opening day of the Gulf Petrochemicals 2007 conference were told yesterday. However, by concentrating on just a few product areas, they are vulnerable to market cycles, industry executives heard at the two-day event, organised by MEED and being staged at the Ritz-Carlton Bahrain Hotel and Spa. "The regional industry is unbalanced - the current structure is heavily reliant one type of gas and the current structure of the industry is focused on commodity petrochemicals," said Saudi General Investment Authority (Sagia) director general of energy Abdulawahab Al Sadoun. Commodity chemicals - bulk products which need to be converted t... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
