However, the Ottomans struggled to control Egypt and maintained mostly nominal control of the area. From 1798-1801, Napoleonic France invaded and conquered Egypt before being pushed out. Later, in 1805, Muhammad Ali Pasha seized control of Egypt and established a quasi-independent dynasty that lasted until 1882, when the British occupied the country. Even then, Egypt remained under de facto Ottoman control until 1914, when it was officially declared a British protectorate.[1] |
