The European country that invaded large parts of North Africa in the 1800s was France. The French began their colonial expansion into North Africa in the early 19th century. Their first major territorial acquisition was Algeria, which they invaded in 1830 and subsequently annexed. This was followed by military campaigns that expanded French control over other regions of North Africa. By the turn of the 20th century, France had established colonial rule over several territories, including Tunisia and Morocco.
