WHAT DOES FRENCH COMMUNITY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

French Community

The French Community was an association of states. In 1958 it replaced the French Union, which had itself succeeded the French colonial empire in 1946. The constitution of the Fifth Republic, which created the French Community, was a consequence of the war in Algeria. The 1 million French colonists there were determined to resist any possible moves towards Algerian independence, and to press their point they held massive demonstrations in Algiers on 13 May 1958. The trouble, which threatened to escalate into a civil war, provoked a political crisis in France and precipitated the collapse of the Fourth Republic. General Charles de Gaulle was recalled to power and a new constitution was drawn up. Initially De Gaulle seemed to confirm the Algerian settlers’ hopes that he would support them, ending a speech to them with the cry “Algerie Francaise”, but privately he indicated that he had no intention of maintaining control of 9 million Algerians for the benefit of one million settlers. This attitude was manifest in the new constitution, which provided for the right of the overseas territories to request complete independence.
