King Farouk was the last king of Egypt who was forced to abdicate by a military coup in 1952. His infant son was then technically the king, but he was just a baby and never ruled. In 1953 the monarchy was abolished and Egypt became a republic.

Fuad II, King of Egypt and the Sudan - (Arabic: الملك فؤاد الثاني‎) - was born prince Ahmad Fuad on 16 January 1952. He ascended the throne on 26 July 1952 upon the abdication of his father King Farouk I after the Egyptian Revolution of 1952. He reigned for less than a year until 18 June 1953. King Fuad II was Egypt and Sudan's last monarch and the last of the Muhammad Ali Dynasty which had ruled since 1805. His short reign came to an end when Egypt was declared a republic on 18 June 1953. Fuad was less than a year old at the time of his ascension to the throne, thus, he was never formally crowned. He became king following the abdication of his father, King Farouk I, and joined his family in exile after the monarchy was overthrown in 1953. The Council of Regency headed by Prince Muhammad Abdul Moneim represented him in Egypt while he was in exile. King Farouk had hoped that his abdication would appease the revolutionaries and other anti-royalist forces in the country, and that the baby king could serve as a unifying force for Egypt and Sudan. Both gambles proved incorrect. After being deposed, Ahmad Fuad was brought to Switzerland, where he was to be raised and continues to live.

Nectanebo II, or Senedjemibra Setepenamen Nekhtharehbe, the great nephew of Nectanebo I. This is the last indigenous ("African") King who was on the throne who Alexander of Macedonia overthrew in 332 BC. Everyone else is a usurper of the throne of Kemet (ancient Egypt as the English version is known).
