NEW MAP: Northern Africa 1906: Conquest of the Sahara (12 February 1906) https://buff.ly/3iCuA02 The first French military expeditions crossed the Sahara in 1900, defeating the Ahaggar Tuareg in 1902. However, it was not until 1906 that the French sent a permanent occupation force to Agadez and thereby secured their control of trans-Saharan trade to the west of the Tibesti Mountains. #1900s #1906 #20thcentury #agadez #algeria #frenchsahara #cartografia #cartographic #sahara #francophone #france #frenchwestafrica #frenchempire #historian #historical #historicalplace #historylesson #historylover #mali #mapping #maps #morocco #niger #northernafrica #empire #colonialism #imperialism #ottomanempire #britishempire #newmap (at Agadez) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCVfa4fAwjO/?igshid=1d8slh74r4gy1

NEW MAP: Northern Africa 1905: Tangier Crisis (31 March 1905) https://buff.ly/30vBsEv In 1904 Britain and France signed the Entente Cordiale—a series of agreements that defined their respective spheres of influence, in particular recognizing British control of Egypt and French primacy in Morocco. In an attempt to undermine this understanding, the German Kaiser decided to openly support the Sultan of Morocco against the French, but, when most of the other powers sided with France, he was forced to back down. As a compromise solution, the Algeciras Conference was called, affirming both Moroccan independence and French influence in Morocco. #1900s #1905 #20thcentury #axisandallies #colonialism #diplomacy #france #frenchempire #frenchsahara #germanempire #historia #historian #historic #historicalplace #historybuff #historylover #maps #march #march31 #ww1 #morocco #northernafrica #imperialism #oldmaps #kaiserwilhelm #strategy #tangier #ottomanempire #britishempire #newmap (at Tangier, Morocco) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC5b2xtgHAe/?igshid=yo4ppw8h2u0s

NEW MAP: Northern Africa 1902: Cottenest Expedition (7 May 1902) https://buff.ly/3h6nkZr French expansion into southern Algeria in the late 19th and early 20th centuries brought it into conflict with the Kel Ahaggar Tuareg of the central Sahara. After making their first military crossing of the desert during the war against Rabih (1900), the French felt ready to deal with the Kel Ahaggar, decisively defeating them in the Cottenest Expedition of 1902. #1900s #1902 #20thcentury #algeria #algeriansahara #frenchalgeria #francophone #frenchsahara #carta #cartografia #sahara #frenchempire #colonial #historia #historic #historicalmaps #historygram #historylesson #historyteacher #imperialism #mapa #mapping #maps #may #may7 #northernafrica #britishempire #tuareg #worldhistory #newmap (at Kel- Ahaggar) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEBilI4A49M/?igshid=11l6nxv6k56z3
