In 1517, the Mamluk Sultanate of Cairo was conquered and annexed by the
Ottoman Empire.
For much of the time under Ottoman rule neglected, in 1798-1799 it became a stage for the Anglo-French conflict.
In 1805 a new governor, Muhammad Ali, began a policy of reforms,
using foreign, mainly French advisors; he developed Egypt into a quasi-independent state. Egypt was of great strategic value,
as the land route from the Mediterranean to Suez (explored since 1785) provided a route to India much shorter than the sea route
around the Cape; in 1859-1869 the Suez Canal was constructed. Egypt economically rose to importance because of the
cultivation of (American) cotton. Excessive expenses by the Khedives (Muhammad Ali's successors) resulted first in the sales
of Egypt's Suez Canal shares, then in state bankrupcy, in response to which the British protectorate over Egypt was established
(1882). The British interest in Egypt primarily was of stratefic nature - control of the Suez Canal. In 1922 / 1936 / 1952 Egypt was
granted autonomy respectively independence. From 1948 to 1967 Egypt administrated the Gaza Strip. In 1958, Egypt and Syria established the United Arab Republic (UAR); in reality Egypt and Syria largely remained distinct political entities. In the early 1970es, the name UAR was replaced by Egypt.
