1952 Coup by Free Officers:
Situation: The monarchy in Egypt faced criticism for its corruption, collaboration with the British, and social and economic inequalities. Dissatisfaction among the public caused a desire for political change.
Leaders: General Muhammad Naguib and Gamal Abdel Nasser.
Result: The overthrow marked the end of the monarchy and the establishment of the Republic of Egypt under Nasser's leadership, symbolizing a break from colonial influences and a commitment to national sovereignty.
1956 Suez Crisis:
Event: Nasser's nationalization of the Suez Canal.
Significance: It asserted Egypt's control over a crucial waterway, marking a further move towards complete independence.
Egypt experienced both early and later forms of colonialism.
Early Colonialism: Egypt's early history includes periods of foreign rule, notably under the Persian Empire and later the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Turks ruled Egypt from 1517 until the early 19th century.
Later Colonialism: In the late 19th century, Egypt came under British influence due to economic interests, including the construction of the Suez Canal. The British established a protectorate in 1914, formalizing their control over Egypt.

In 1952, leaders, including Gamal Abdel Nasser, led a change in Egypt, aiming for modernization and independence. They made significant moves, such as taking control of the Suez Canal in 1956, to demonstrate Egypt's autonomy. By the end of that year, the world formally recognized Egypt as a free and independent nation, acknowledging the country's ability to make its own decisions and shape its future.
There hasn't been genocide within Egypt; however, there have been civil wars.
