1919 Revolution
The 1919 Revolution, also known as the Egyptian Revolution, marked the beginning of a popular uprising against British rule in Egypt. Sparked by nationalist feelings and widespread discontent after World War I, Egyptians protested against British colonial policies and sought independence. Key events included strikes, demonstrations, and the formation of nationalist groups. The uprising led to significant political changes, including the establishment of a parliamentary system in 1923. Although full independence was not achieved until later, the 1919 Revolution was pivotal in fostering Egyptian nationalism and setting the stage for future struggles against colonialism.
