The Kingdom of Egypt (Italian: Regno d'Egitto, Arabic: المملكة المصرية) is an Italian puppet state in North Africa. It is bordered by Italian Libya to the west, the State of Palestine to the east, Italian East Africa to the south-east, and the Protectorate of Uganda.
Italy has direct control of the Suez Canal. Due to its status as a puppet of Italy, Egypt is part of the Triumvirate and the Italian sphere of influence.
Egypt's government is a constitutional monarchy under King Farouk I and Prime Minister Mostafa El-Nahas. Farouk has proven to be an ineffective and corrupt leader with very little interest in ruling his country, instead leaving that role to his advisors. His time as the king has seen the attempted 1956 Independence Revolution that was crushed by the Italians and his rule continues to be troubled by rising anti-Italian and anti-monarchy sentiment.
Politics
After Farouk's death, El-Nahas will retire from politics. The ensuing election can be won by the Wafd Party (led by Fuad Serragedine) or the Muslim Brotherhood (led by Hassan al-Hudaybi). Alternatively, Mohammed Naguib and the Free Officers Movement can take over the government by coup.
