Egypt was of significant importance to the Ottoman Empire due to its strategic location, wealth, and agricultural productivity. As a vital trade hub connecting Europe, Asia, and Africa, Egypt contributed to the empire's economic strength. Additionally, the control of Egypt allowed the Ottomans to secure trade routes and bolster military presence in the region. The province also served as a cultural and administrative center, enhancing the empire's prestige and influence in the Islamic world.
