🇩🇿 Flag: Algeria emoji

The flag of Algeria, the largest country in Africa by land area, located in North Africa. The flag features two equal vertical halves: green (representing Islam and the hope of the nation) on the hoist side and white (symbolizing peace and purity) on the fly side, with a red crescent moon and five-pointed star (traditional symbols of Islam) centered on the dividing line.

Algeria is known for its vast Sahara Desert (covering over 80% of the country), oil and natural gas reserves, ancient Roman ruins, Berber (Amazigh) culture, French colonial history and language influence, Mediterranean coastline, and complex post-independence political history. The country played a significant role in the Non-Aligned Movement and Arab nationalism.
