History & geography

History

Ain Smara was founded in 1854. Its popularity was due to the existence of the Chettaba mountains. During the Ottoman era (1515–1830) it was close to Turc baylek Constantine. It was colonized by the French from 1830 to 1962 and remained a quarter of Oued Athmania until the administrative division of 1984, when Ain Smara became a municipality.

Geography

It is bordered by Ali Mendjeli to the east, Oued Athmania (Mila Province) to the west, Ibn Ziad to the north and El Khroub to the south. The Hricha Amar quarter of Ain Smara is one of the biggest Constantine quarters.
