IF SOMEONE DOESNT HELP ME ISTG Explain why Egypt was a source of Anglo-French rivalry.

History
1 answer:
Georgia [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:France wanted control of Egypt for two major reasons--its commercial and agricultural potential and its strategic importance to the Anglo-French rivalry. During the eighteenth century, the principal share of European trade with Egypt was handled by French merchants. The French also looked to Egypt as a source of grain and raw materials. In strategic terms, French control of Egypt could be used to threaten British commercial interests in the region and to block Britain's overland route to India.

The French forces took Alexandria without difficulty, defeated the Mamluk army at Shubra Khit and Imbabah, and entered Cairo on July 25. Murad Bey fled to Upper Egypt while Ibrahim Bey and the Ottoman viceroy went to Syria. Mamluk rule in Egypt collapsed.

True I think, but in terms of life? False. Europeans, however, unlike the Chinese, sought to build vast empires all across the world, even in the new world, that's why most of human history is European exploration, and wars, and the like.
