| Tlo historyczne | After a century of rule by Francja, Algieria became independent w 1962. The surprising first round success of the fundamentalist FIS (Islamic Salvation Front) party w the grudzien 1991 balloting caused the army to intervene, crack down on the FIS, and postpone the subsequent elections. The fundamentalist response has resulted w a continuous low-grade civil conflict z the secular state apparatus, which nonetheless has allowed elections featuring pro-government and moderate religious-based parties. The FIS's armed wing, the Islamic Salvation Army, disbanded w styczen 2000 and many armed militants of other groups surrendered under an amnesty program designed to promote national reconciliation. Nevertheless, small numbers of armed militants persist w confronting government forces and carrying out isolated attacks on villages and other types of terrorist attacks. Other concerns include Berber unrest, large-scale unemployment, a shortage of housing, and the need to diversify the petroleum-based economy. |

| Ekonomia | The hydrocarbons sector is the backbone of the economy, accounting dla roughly 60% of budget revenues, 30% of Produkt krajowy brutto, and over 95% of export earnings. Algieria has the fifth-largest reserves of natural gas w the world and is the second-largest gas exporter; it ranks 14th w oil reserves. Algieria's financial and economic indicators improved during the mid-1990s, w part because of policy reforms supported by the IMF and debt rescheduling from the Paris Club. Algieria's finances w 2000-03 benefited from substantial trade surpluses, record foreign exchange reserves, and reductions w foreign debt. Real Produkt krajowy brutto has risen due to higher oil output and increased government spending. The government's continued efforts to diversify the economy by attracting foreign and domestic investment outside the energy sector, however, has had little success w reducing high unemployment and improving living standards. |
