The Algerian Civil Defense (in Arabic: الحماية المدنية) is a unit of the Algerian government responsible for firefighting, rescue services, and emergency response.
History
[edit]
Following the Algerian Revolution and the exit of the French colonial powers in 1962, the responsibility for management of Algerian firefighters fell to individual municipalities. On April 15, 1964, under the Presidency of Ahmed Ben Bella, the National Civil Protection Service was created to standardize and professionalize the corps of Algerian firefighters and rescue workers. However, the municipal administration and financing of the services were left intact.
This structure changed in 1976 when the service was replaced by Algerian Civil Defense, nationalizing administration and day-to-day operations.[1]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
