The Algerian War had been underway since 1954. The Évian Accords of March 18 1962, brought an end to the conflict. The Accords, which were reached during a cease-fire between French armed forces and the Algerian nationalist organization the FLN, began the process of transfer of power from the French to the Algerians. The Évian Accords intended to guarantee the rights and safety of the "Pieds-Noirs", the French-speaking European settlers in an independent Algeria.
