-Muhammad Ali modernized Egypt by creating economic reforms, tax collection, landholding, irrigation, cotton production, local industries, and world trade.
-It was a bad thing for Egypt because they’d have to pay it back, Egypt’s economy soon began to decline. The factories stopped producing. Egypt got into serious debt with British banks.
-Bad leadership is one
of them. Ali’s family took over after his death. A second explanation for Egypt’s failure was environmental. They didn’t have as much coal as the Europeans. Egyptian factories moved their machines using animals.
A third explanation is European competition. European countries tried to ruin the Egyptian industry on purpose.
-Some looked for solutions in modernizing, or becoming more like Europeans, while others wanted to return to their Islamic roots. Some Egyptians believed Western-inspired reforms could still function within an Islamic framework, as a kind of middle ground. One scholar, Jamal al-Din al-Afghani, argued that Islam could be modernized and mixed with democracy.
-The most convincing is the environment. European countries were able to produce more coal, which would cause Egypt’s trades to reduce.
