Algiers

Algiers was a city in Northern Africa.

The Doctor visited Algiers in 1516, where he was involved in what he referred to as "that terrible business with the Spaniards."

At a later time, the Fourth Doctor and Romana were brought to Algiers for interrogation by the Earth military. There they were interrogated by General Vincent. (AUDIO: The Sands of Life [+]Loading...["The Sands of Life (audio story)"])

Behind the scenes

In real life, the 1516 event the Doctor was probably referring to was the Capture of Algiers, which was part of a conflict between Spain and the Ottoman Empire.
