Turks in Algeria The Turks in Algeria, also commonly referred to as Algerian Turks, Algerian-Turkish Algero-Turkish and Turkish-Algerians (Arabic: أتراك الجزائر‎ ‎ French: "Turcs d'Algérie" ; Turkish: "" ) are ethnic Turkish descendants who, alongside the Arabs and Berbers, constitute a strong admixture to Algeria's population. During Ottoman rule, Turkish settlers began to migrate to the region predominately from Anatolia and many intermarried with the native population; the male offspring of these marriages were referred to as "Kouloughlis" (Turkish: "kuloğlu" ) due to their mixed Turkish and central Maghrebi blood. Consequently, the terms "Turks" and "Kouloughlis" have traditionally been used to distinguish between those of full and partial Turkish ancestry.
