 ==Background ==
-During the Ottoman era, population data was collected through the Nüfus Defterleri (population registers), which began in the mid-19th century. These registers recorded demographic information, including births, marriages, and deaths, primarily for administrative and tax purposes. Under French colonial rule (1830-1962), more systematic censuses were conducted to manage both the European settler and indigenous populations. Following independence in 1962, Algeria continued to conduct national censuses, starting with the first post-independence census in 1966. These modern censuses, carried out roughly every ten years, have been essential for national planning and development, providing detailed data on population distribution, economic activities, and social conditions.
