Best Answer

Egypt was fought over in World War 1 by the British and the British Commonwealth on one side and the Ottoman Empire on the other. The Ottomans started out controlling Egypt and ended up loosing control to Britain as part of the peace settlement

In World War 2 Egypt was fought over by British forces and their allies on one side and the Germans and Italians on the other. The British started out controlling Egypt, and preserved that control during the war. But they withdrew from Egypt during the contraction of British power and control around the world in the decades following World War 2.
