Abstract: The ``local structure of a quantum group G_q is currently considered to be an infinite-dimensional object: the corresponding quantum universal enveloping algebra U_q(g), which is a Hopf algebra deformation of the universal enveloping algebra of a n-dimensional Lie algebra g=Lie(G). However, we show how, by starting from the generators of the underlying Lie bialgebra (g,delta), the analyticity in the deformation parameter(s) allows us to determine in a unique way a set of n ``almost primitive basic objects in U_q(g), that could be properly called the ``quantum algebra generators. So, the analytical prolongation (g_q,Delta) of the Lie bialgebra (g,delta) is proposed as the appropriate local structure of G_q. Besides, as in this way (g,delta) and U_q(g) are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence, the classification of quantum groups is reduced to the classification of Lie bialgebras. The su_q(2) and su_q(3) cases are explicitly elaborated.
