1919 revolution

1919 revolution
When World War I ended the victory of the Allies, and echoed the world the principles of Wilson's four years on the grounds that they bring justice to oppressed peoples based on the principle of self-determination, he went the leaders of Egypt led by Saad Zaghloul to the British High Commissioner and survived for obtaining approval to travel to Paris to present the case of the independence of Egypt to the peace conference there.

Was expected to support the peace conference in Paris, the British Protectorate imposed on Egypt, but Egypt had wanted to know their rights to Britain as they were aware of their rights of succession to the Ottoman Empire.

She survived, but he refused, and claimed that Saad Zaghloul and Abdel Aziz Fahmy Ali Shaarawi and do not represent the people.

And must mention the historical fact emerged after the publication of correspondence between the survivor and the British government, and is that the survivor was agreed to Egypt's offer to its demands in the peace conference he says in his correspondence of the British government, "If not addressed this issue burning now, it's likely that we will face great difficulties in the future, and I think it's fair to know the Sultan, minister and all the Egyptians stand. "

But the response and the British Foreign Office, which was headed Balfour was as follows "the time when it becomes possible to give Egypt autonomy has not yet come"

And even be a recipe for Saad Zaghloul Agency for people to claim their rights, began a campaign of signatures on petitions hired Saad and his companions. And ignited the movement of the signing agencies and national feelings, the people in the face of the occupation authorities, which has been active in suppressing the movement of the signing agencies.

And increased turbulence after accepting the resignation of the Ministry of Hussein Rushdi, who resigned in protest against not allowing the delegation to travel to the peace conference in Paris, not to allow also for Hussein Rushdi and Minister of Education Adly not go to London to discuss the hopes of Egypt's independence with the British government.

And the acceptance of the resignation of the Ministry of Hussein Rushdi national Sultan Fuad ears Balkotaiah between the Sultan Fuad and the delegation led by Saad Zaghloul, has sent a delegation letter hard to Sultan Fuad where many of the reprimand to accept the resignation of Hussein Rushdi and was the first Sultan Fouad to stand next to the ministry committed to the right of Egypt in the presentation of its case and hopes of independence.

This speech was painful is a divorce between the Sultan Fuad and delegation, the IPC of the British the opportunity and did in March 8, 1919 arrest of Saad Zaghloul and Mohamed Mahmoud, Hamad brave and Ismail Sidky and Saguethm to the barracks, Qasr al-Nil and then to Port Said and then exiled to the island of Malta.

As soon as the news of the arrest and exile Saad applies between the people, even the flames of the revolution broke out on March 9 in Cairo and major cities and villages, and there is no longer the only place abuzz with the national revolution.

And came out all sections of the people in this revolution, it was the right of popular revolution, in which workers, students and peasants. Until the women went out in demonstrations Vhzat Bgerotha community and patriotism. And abolish the peasants on the railroads and telegraph Vqtauha.

Foreign Ministry summoned the British and Nget Wingate, and was replaced by Lord Allenby, who used the British teams to control the revolution, and clashes occurred between the rebels and the English forces, and killed quite a few Egyptians in these clashes.

Revolution of 1919.

And in the end fell of England and the release of Saad Zaghloul and his companions, and declared it was ready to negotiate on the Independence of Egypt, and allowed the delegation of Saad Zaghloul travel to Orr, Ba, but they found Alabub closed in front of them, the States approved the Great British protectorate in Egypt , and Egypt was not allowed to present its case.

The fact that the most important in the 1919 revolution in terms of the independence of Egypt, is that they represented the worst ever in all probability developed by the British occupation in dealing with the independence of Egypt, and has been the revolution that represents the Scarecrow is afraid of them British and fear recurrence, making them are prepared to make more concessions on the issue of independence.

The demands of Saad Zaghloul in the independence they represent the highest degree of independence, and offset at the same time offer Britain, which was a lower degree of independence, which Britain wants to give it to Egypt, came the 1919 revolution and solidarity of all classes of people with the demands of Saad and the spread of the national spirit and unite behind one leader, it all came to give more weight to the degree of independence adopted by Saad, and forced Britain to uphold concessions from the roof to reach the meeting point with the Egyptian government to accept any negotiation with them.

And this is what we will see the abolition of the British protectorate of Egypt in 1922.
