1 answer

The two French overseas territories that experienced popular movements towards self-government are Algeria and New Caledonia. Algeria's movement for independence culminated in the Algerian War of Independence from 1954 to 1962, resulting in its independence from France. New Caledonia has had a series of referendums on independence, particularly in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, reflecting its ongoing quest for self-determination.
