  2. Algeria had a big autonomy during the control by the Ottoman empire,so this "puppet" thing, isn't right.

  3.  @haydenhazelrig4550  They still could choose their own rules and weren't a "puppet", that is the d*mbest thing I ever heard. The only thing Algeria couldn't decide is whether they do go to war or not.

  5.    ​ Stephen Jenkins Canada isn't a puppet state,I think many people say this because Australia helped its Allies in each war.A puppet state is when a country seems independent but is in control of another country, Like Saudi Arabia has a puppet state, Koeweit, it does everything Saudi Arabia says and always is in favor of Saudi Arabia.

  6.    ​Algeria is different,the Ottomans respected its sovereignty and respected the laws the Algerians made.
