IHO it should be merged with Hippo Regius.

Lead section, 2nd paragraph edit

I found the following text from the lead section difficult to decipher, so I've rewritten what is (a) understandable and (b) meaningful, and removed anything else. It appears to have been translated, possibly by machine, from the source found at the end of the paragraph. Annaba is a coastal city and a pole of spontaneous growth. The area of growth of Annaba is accompanied by a metropolitan area under pressure even at high compression to the image of the other metropolises of the Algerian coastline such as Oran and the capital Algiers. With more than 200,000 inhabitants, it's in direct and indirect relationship with the region of "Bône", a territory of nearly 4 million people. Its character of a "port town" gives it a regional international radiation. Much of eastern and southern Algerian seeks the services, equipment, and infrastructure of the city. Economically, it is located in the centre of dynamic and varied activities: industry, transport, finance and tourism. Dendrite1 (talk) 04:32, 11 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Very little was said about the role of Annaba and northeastern Algeria during WW II edit

During World War II in 1943, Bône (Annaba) was an important goal of the U.S. Army and British Army in Operation Torch, advancing eastward from Morocco, Oran, and Algiers across North Africa. Bône was a crucial highway and sea location for the invasion of Tunisia, and thence the driving of the Axis Powers (Germany and Italy) out of Africa in May 1943, when they surrendered. Many supply lines had to go through the area of Bône, along the highways to Tunis and Cape Bon.
Bône remained in Allied hands until the end of the war in 1945, and then it remained a part of French Algeria until the independence of Algeria in 1962.24.121.195.165 (talk) 21:56, 24 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
