Gamel Abdel Nasser (1918-1970) was President of Egypt when he nationalized the Suez Canal in 1956. The resulting conflict with England and France* brought Nasser much support among Arab nationalists and those who sought the end of European colonialism. The eventual settlement kept the Suez Canal open but gave many concessions to Egypt.
(*It was soon forgotten that Egypt lost the battle to Israel, England, and France - the invading forces only withdrew under pressure from the United States and the UN.)
