Algeria has a population of around 40 million people, with the majority living in cities like the capital Algiers which has over 2 million residents. Arabic and Berber languages are most commonly spoken, along with French. The Sahara desert covers over 80% of the country's land area. While Algeria has large oil and natural gas reserves, its economy remains dependent on these resources and has struggled to diversify despite some emerging innovative online companies in e-commerce and education.
