Napoleon invaded Egypt because of 3 reasons:
1) A strong French army in the East would threaten to disrupt England's rich Asian trade.
2) The thought of Egypt as a French colony was an alluring idea.
3) The Egyptian expedition would be infinitely cheaper and less risky than an invasion of the British Isles.
4) European greed
