End of the Muhammad Ali Dynasty

June 18th, 1953 71 years ago

The Egyptian revolution culminated in 1953 with the overthrow of the Muhammad Ali dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of Egypt. This pivotal moment followed years of nationalist sentiments and discontent, leading the Free Officers Movement, comprised mainly of young military officers, to demand an end to monarchy. The revolution was characterized by public support for the new leadership, including General Muhammad Naguib and Gamal Abdel Nasser, who would shape the future of Egypt.
