The Suez crisis is also known as the Suez war and it was a war that was fought by Britain, France and Israel against Egypt. The war followed Egypt's decision of 26th July 1956 to nationalize the Suez Canal. This was after the withdrawal of an offer by Britain and the US to fund the building of the Aswan dam, which was partly in response to Egypt siding with China during the tensions between China and Taiwan.
