Sidi Bel Abbès
Sidi Bel Abbès ((アラビア語:سيدي بلعباس)) is capital (2005 pop. 200,000)〔''Sidi Bel Abbes'', lexicorient.com (Encyclopaedia of the Orient), internet article.〕 of the Sidi Bel Abbès wilaya (2005 pop. 590,000), Algeria. It is named after Sidi bel Abbass, a Muslim marabout or noble man who is buried there.〔 The city is the commercial center of an important area of vineyards, market gardens, orchards, and grain fields. It was formerly surrounded by a wall with four gates and there is a university there. Sidi Bel Abbès is 75 kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea.
==History==
The city, on the Wadi Mékerra River, developed around a French camp built in 1843.〔 In 1849 a planned agricultural town was established around the existing military post. From the 1830s until 1962, the city was closely associated with the French Foreign Legion, the location of its basic training camp, and the headquarters of its 1st Foreign Regiment. In the late 1890s the town, described as being of Spanish appearance, had a civilian population of about 30,000.〔Martin Windrow, page 138 ''Our Friends Beneath the Sands - The Foreign Legion in France's Colonial Conquests 1870-1935'', ISBN 978-0-297-85213-1〕 The main buildings were in the French military district of the ''Quartier Vienot''. The training centre of the modern Algerian National Gendarmerie is located in Sidi Bel Abbès.
In the 1930s much of the old city walls were demolished. Wide boulevards and squares replaced the traditional quarters, causing the town to lose much of its former character.
In 11th century, Banu Hilal, an Arab tribe living between Nile and Red Sea, settled in Tunisia, Tripolitania (western Libya) and Constantinois (eastern Algeria) which was Sidi Bel Abbes party.
