Algeria, which remains unknown for most Europeans, is the land of the strong colours and the intense light. The area of Algeria is over 2 000 000 km˛ . The culture is colourful because it includes Numidia from Carthaginians, Romans, Arabs, Turkish, French and of course the ancient Berber culture of Algeria. There we are able to see the development of the Christianity. The city of Constantine was established by Constantine I which was the same year than the Christianity was announced as the state religion of the state in Rome. Saint Augustine, who was considered to be one of the church fathers, was born in Algeria and we can follow his footsteps from there.
