Define the algebraic fundamental group as follows:
Let $k$ be a perfect field, $X$ an integral proper normal $k$-curve with function field $K$ and $U\subset X$ a nonempty open subset. Denote by $K_s$ a fixed separable closure of $K$.Let $K_U$ be the composite of all finite subextensions $L:K_s/L/K$ such that the corresponding finite morphism of proper normal curves is étale over $U$. Then $K_U$ is Galois over $K$ and the algebraic fundamental group of $U$ is $\operatorname{Gal}(K_U/K)$, denoted as $\pi_1(U)$.
(Cf. Tamas Szamuely, Galois Group and Fundamental Groups, Section 4.6)
Now let $\Pi(n)$ be $\pi_1(\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{Q})\setminus\{P_1,\ldots,P_n\})$. Then why is $\Pi(n)$ a quotient of $\operatorname{Gal}\bigl(\overline{\mathbb{Q}(t)}/\mathbb{Q}(t)\bigr)$?
