Greece, Rome, Turkey, Persia, the Ottoman Empire and Britain have all colonised Egypt at various times.British
First Greece did but later on in 1889 Britain conquered it until the mid 1950's.
Yes, but indirectly. Sudan was part of the Khedivite Sultanate in Egypt which Britain ruled via a protectorate as opposed to a colony.
Because the Egyptians had the Nile River and the Nile Valley (fertile areas, good to grow crops) and they had many good crops. No. Britain colonized Egypt so that it could build the Suez Canal.
The British did colonize Egypt in 1882 after the Second Anglo-Egyptian War. However, as was typical with Old World British Colonies, the British colonized Egypt indirectly by controlling the previous ruling dynasty (the Khedivites). This allowed that all of the infrastructure previously developed by the Khedivites to be effective in maintaining law and order in Egypt.
NO. While the specific term "colony" is disputable in terms of Britain's historic relationship with Egypt, it is fair to say that Britain had military force and control over Egyptian affairs from 1882-1954. After the Officer's Uprising in 1954, Egypt became a completely independent nation.
