all I understand from the suez crisis is the French, Israeli, and English alliance was pulled back by american authority in the UN. So maybe it was nationalized for a time? Then there was the defeat of Nasser in the 6 days war.
I skimmed through the first page of google, and couldn't find any one answer. Theres a corporation at the top I think. But are the scum who own that company listed publicly? are there hedge funds behind this shit?
Nasser was overall good. The Nationalizing of the suez canal was a big deal also because it created enough funding for the Aswan Dam, which raised the standard of living in Egypt greatly by allowing for cheap and renewable electricity and greater water availability for farming. He also did semi-maoist style land redistribution which was a great success even though it could have been implemented a little better and could've been a little farther reaching. He certainly had his shortcomings- his failed war in yemen being one of them- but he got rid of the British influence in Egypt, nationalized the suez, and raised the standard of living for the average egyptian through big infrastructure improvements and land redistribution.
His war in Yemen was to liberate Yemen in a similar way to how Egypt had been, from under the king right?
It just failed because the capitalist aligned powers were stronger than the soviet ones backing Egypt.
that sounds right. I think people criticize him for it because egypt wasn't in the best spot to be fighting in a war and there were (i think im remembering from a class i took last quarter) pretty massive casualties for the egyptians
Playing Civ 6 as Egypt on the real world locations map, got to electricity and learned that for some inexplicable reason none of the tiles on the Nile are eligible to have a dam placed on them. Felt bad making the whole continent wait for nuclear power to be invented before building any power plants.
