Capital: Algiers
Government: Presidential Republic
President: Muhammad Jabbar
Prime Minister: Kaliem Bendjedie
Population: 35,643,782


History:

Since 2002 terrorists attacks had existed in Algeria and surrounding countries. Although the Algerian government did manage to quell much of the group and seemed to almost stop it completely near the end of 2008. Unfortunately, it turned out to be the calm before the storm. Early 2009 the terrorists struck in force killings hundreds of civilians and military personnel. This quickly eroded faith in Abdelaziz Bouteflika and his administration as it seemed the current administration was almost completely unable to cope with this sudden surge in violence. As a result during the next election Muhammad Jabbar found it easy to win by campaigning on platform of destroying these terrorist groups. He then carried through on his promises and began to systematically hunt down the leaders of the groups mainly through greatly increased funding to the military and police forces. Since then the government has been taking advantage of the rising costs for oil and natural gas to bolster the economy. At the same time the military has been pushed closer and closer to modernization especially in the army. With the downfall of America and as it seemed the world was heading towards war the government made preparations to defend against an attack as well as launch an offensive of it's own. Nationalism became a major topic within Algeria and the rumors that neighboring countries supported the terrorist attacks a few years are flying all across the country.

A suggestion: make that flag pic smaller.

You would be on the CFS, since Algeria is formerly a French colonial nation and even after independence, maintains good ties with France.

I seem to have better ties with Russia and China though, also there is a strong Islamic element within my country with the radicals still maintaining some control in my country's government.

Of course I could just go neutral selling my large natural gas supplies to both sides while trying to unite the Maghreb nations. I would then have one of the world's largest supplies of oil, natural gas, and phosphates.

Um, not really. Here, I fixed it for you:

I seem to have better ties with France and Tunisia and Italy though, also there is a strong Islamic element within my country with the radicals still maintaining some control in my country's government.

In the recent real life history anti-French sentiment has been on the rise. The leader I put in power asserts Nationalism, Independence, and the strength of Algeria so I imagine that the anti-French sentiment would increase even more.

Tunisia basically justs does what I want them to do. They have reversed their position to agree with Algeria in the past.

I have yet to find much about Italian-Algerian relations except for the Transnational pipeline.

Lately Algeria has made a lot of deals with Russia and China, mainly for the new weapons, which have lead to improved relations.

Well since Russia and China are very far from you, and the fact there are loads of CFS nations near you, you are already a dead fish in the sea.

I know that if I joined the ECA I would become a strategic target which is why I am only leaning towards joining the ECA. Before I join either side I would require a promise of military protection in the event of an attack.

I am not incompetent, I have logically planned ahead for a variety of scenarios.

Why would you need protection? You have a large military.

EDIT: Btw, conscript soldiers.

If any 1st world nation attacks me I would not last long. My navy would last a maximum of 2 days and my air force would be lucky to survive twice that long. I could cause problems and make it take awhile for me to be defeated but I would prefer to not lead my army from a cave.
