Country

Egypt

Also Known As Arab Republic of Egypt
Northern Africa

Egypt occupies the northeastern corner of Africa, its Sinai Peninsula reaching into southwest Asia, with the overwhelming majority of its people settled along the narrow ribbon of the Nile River and its delta. Egypt became a British protectorate in 1914 and Britain declared it a nominally independent, sovereign state in 1922, a constitutional monarchy that still reserved several matters, including defense and imperial communications, to British discretion pending negotiation. Army officers led by Gamal Abdel Nasser overthrew the monarchy in 1952, and mass protests in the 2011 revolution ended Hosni Mubarak's long rule. Its capital, Cairo, already described on this atlas as sitting on the banks of the Nile, has stood on the same site for more than a thousand years.

Britain declaration of February 28, 1922 ended the protectorate and established nominal independence under a constitutional monarchy, though four matters (imperial communications, defense, protection of foreigners and minorities, and Sudan) were reserved to British discretion pending negotiation. Full sovereignty followed later milestones: the 1952 revolution and the 1953 declaration of a republic.
