Berber people
[[File:Abd al-Qadir.jpg" />
Berbers are the indigenous peoples of North Africa west of the Nile Valley. They are discontinuously distributed from the Atlantic to the Siwa oasis, in Egypt, and from the Mediterranean to the Niger River. Historically they spoke various Berber languages, which together form a branch of the Afro-Asiatic language family. Today many of them speak Darija and also French in the Maghreb, due to the French colonization of the Maghreb, and especially Spanish in Morocco. Today most Berber-speaking people live in Morocco, Algeria, Libya and Tunisia.

This was the first comedy that Laurel and Hardy starred in without producer Hal Roach, although they had previously been "guest stars" in four MGM movies. After they finished making "The Flying Deuces," they returned to Hal Roach Studios to make films. In order to make this movie, producer Boris Morros bought the rights to the 1931 French film "Les deux legionnaires," which had a similar plot. "The Flying Deuces" was Morros' first independent production and it was shot in continuity over a span of four weeks. Only one day was reportedly needed for retakes. The French original starred Fernandel and Noel Noel. SYNOPSIS: Ollie is in love with a woman. When he find out that she is already married, he tries to kill himself. Of course, the suicide is prevented and the boys join the Foreign Legion to get away from their troubles. Eventually, they are arrested for trying to desert the Legion and escape the firing squad by stealing a plane.

This film was made right after the French Foreign Legion proved its valor (once again) in a military operation in Congo. The Legion saved hundreds of Europeans taken hostages by rebels and managed to drive them away after losing only 5 of its men. The film is very low budget, but very accurate and most of the legionnaires on the screen were actual legionnaires involved in the fights.

Rome, 476 AD. The Roman Empire is being threatened. A mighty force for almost 500 years, (at its height, Rome's power spread from Mesopotamia in the east to the Iberian peninsula in the west, from the Rhine and Danube in the north to Egypt in the south), this story follows the gripping capture of young Romulus Augustus (THOMAS SANGSTER). On the eve of twelve-year-old Romulus Augustus' crowning ceremony to become the new emperor, Barbarian general Odoacer (PETER MULLAN) arrives in Rome to make a deal with Orestes (IAIN GLEN). Odoacer makes demands of the Roman Empire in fair exchange for his decade-long support of the Roman legions in the east. But Orestes refuses. On Coronation day, as all of Rome gathers to watch the proceedings, Ambrosinus (SIR BEN KINGSLEY), the shaman who is a mentor and tutor to Romulus, predicts danger. Orestes is worried about his son's safety and appoints Aurelius (COLIN FIRTH) of the fourth legion to be his personal guard. That night, Aurelius and his legionnaires confront danger—Odoacer and his army have returned to Rome. With a deafening roar, the Barbarian army storms the city. A battle ensues, the brutal invaders show no mercy and blood flows through the streets. With Orestes slaughtered, Romulus is captured along with Ambrosinus and taken to the island fortress of Capri. There, Romulus finds the mythical sword of Caesar that holds the prophecy, "One edge to defend, one to defeat; ...to fit the hand of he...who is destined to rule." But, not <b>...</b>

The archival film footage for this song, "The Legionnaires:Lest We Forget", off The Sharecropper's first cd titled NATURAL, was compliled by Geoff Sterling of Newfoundland's NTV. Mr Sterling uses his archives' new and old material and presents a wonderful pictorial of the lyrics of the song. The Sharecroppers thank Geoff for his artistic work during those wee hours of the morning. We also congratulate Mr Sterling on his being honored with the Order of Newfoundland and Labrador on Dec 11,2009. The song "The Legionnaires:Lest We Forget" honours all the Legionnaires and those who came and still come faithfully to our schools to celebrate Remembrance Day. They would usually come a day or two before November 11th and celebrate at a school gathering. When they spoke, all 390 students in our school of Pasadena Academy in Newfoundland would give them 100% silence, attention and respect. That in itself was an amazing happening. To all our Legionnaire friends, we honour you and thank you for your efforts in securing our freedoms. To all those who promote the Legionnaires and war vets,.... thankyou and God Bless!

Legionnaire is a 1998 film starring Jean-Claude Van Damme as a 1920s boxer who wins a fight after having been hired by gangsters to lose it, then flees to join the French Foreign Legion. The cast includes Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Steven Berkoff, Nicholas Farrell and Jim Carter. The film was filmed in Ouarzazate, Morocco.
Plot
Alain Lefevre (Jean-Claude Van Damme) is a French boxer in 1920's Marseille, France. Alain is forced by local crime boss Lucien Galgani (Jim Carter) to take a dive in a fight. Galgani's girlfriend Katrina (Ana Sofrenovic) is also Alain's ex-fiancée whom he left standing at the altar. But Katrina forgives Alain, and the two hatch a plan to run off to America together.Alain does not take a dive in the fight, but just as the escape plan is about to succeed, Alain's friend gets killed, and Katrina is captured by Galgani's men. But Alain has shot and killed Galgani's brother.
Desperately needing a new escape plan, Alain signs up for the French Foreign Legion, and is shipped to North Africa to help defend Morocco against a native Berber rebellion of Rif warriors, led by Abd el-Krim.
Along the way, Alain meets some new friends, including Luther, an African American who has fled injustice in the States, Mackintosh, a former British Army Major with a gambling problem, and Guido, a naive Italian boy who wishes to impress his girl back home by returning as a hero.
But things will not be easy. The only real way to escape from the Legion is to survive the term of service, and the rebels have them outnumbered.
Galgani has sent his hired thugs into the Legion as well, to find Alain and get revenge for the death of Galgani's brother. In the end, only Alain stands up alive after the battle and Abd el-Krim seeing Alain's courage and determination allows him to live and tells him to inform his superiors what's waiting for them if they continue the colonization. Finally the movie ends with Alain's memory of Katrina and his former friends.
