Colonization of Egypt :: Colonialism Imperialism

Colonization of EgyptWhat is a inviolable coarse? Is a good country a country with a cheerful population? Is a good country a country which controls more land than the close? Is a good country a country whose government and scotch system has absolutely no problems? Or is a good country a country that has a delicate balance of benefits and problems. Well, we are hither today to discuss the turpitude of Egypt, a good country, by Britain, a huge and powerful country. Although Britain was not the first, Britain has retained control of Egypt for nearly 40 years and I am here today to ask for the exemption and decolonization of Egypt from Britain.This problem all started in 1882 when the British forced snooze Bonaparte, the leader of the French Army, out of Africa. Instead of leaving the land of Egypt to its just owners, the Egyptians, Britain decided to colonize Egypt and control them through a protectorate. The protectorate allowed the British government to control Egypts economic and political decisions without intervention from the Egyptians. In some other words, The Egyptians had completely lost control of their own country. Well, some of you might ask, wherefore would Britain want to keep Egypt? The response to this is more simple than you might think. Was it the point that Egypt was such a weak country at the time? Or was it that Egypt was just waiting to be colonized? No, it was greed, pure British greed, that caused the corruption of Egypts balanced culture.The economic situation of Egypt before its colonization was quite good. The running(a) and owning variant maintained the industrial aspect while the upper class maintained the government and political prospect. Through the colonization of Egypt, Britain gained control of the Suez Canal, a major part of the world trade routes. With this advantage, Britain decided to heavily tax income the ships which passed through. This brought mass amounts of money of which the Egyptians never saw. Instead of going to maintain Egypt or even the Suez Canal itself, the money went straight to the British government as profit. Finally, the news that Britain had colonized Egypt and was using it as a profitable contrast reached the public. Immediately, the Egyptians began to leave the country. The British had to act quickly, for they knew that without the Egyptians to maintain the land and canal, the profit would be lost.
