'''Egypt''' (Italian: ''Egitto'', Arabic: ''Miṣr''), officially the '''Kingdom of Egypt''' (Italian: ''Regno d'Egitto'', Arabic: ''Al-Mamlaka Al-Miṣreyya''), is a country in north Africa, and member of the [[Triumvirate]]. Egypt is a constitutional monarchy under the reign of [[King Farouk I]], with [[Mostafa El-Nahas]] serving as Prime Minister. Farouk has shown himself to be a dishonest and incompetent leader who has no interest in leading his nation; instead, he leaves that responsibility to his Prime Minister and Egypt's Italian overlords.
Egypt borders [[Italy|Italian Libya]], [[Kanem]], and [[Cameroon]] to its west, the [[Italian Levant]] to its east, [[Italian East Africa]] to its south-east, and the Reichskommissariats of [[R.K. Ostafrika|Ostafrika]] and [[R.K. Zentralafrika|Zentralafrika]] to its south. Egypt claims sovereignty over the Suez Canal, however it is directly administered by [[Italy]].

==== World War II East African Campaign<ref name=":0">https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/TNOAfrica</ref> ====
During World War II, Egypt's government and army were legally neutral, with the British making it a major base of operations against Italy and Germany. London's top priority was controlling the Eastern Mediterranean, particularly the Suez Canal, for merchant ships and military connections with its dominions of India and Australia. Egypt played a minor role in the North African campaign,

In July 1942, the Italian and Germans broke through the Allies' front line and captured a key supply depot. In September, the remaining British colonial army was surrounded and
With reinforcements, supplies, and air support, the Viceroy broke the siege and inflicted a devastating defeat on the Allies at the Battle of Amba Alagi.
==== Post-World War II Era (Reconstruction Period) ====
After the war, The Pro-British Government in Egypt was ousted and was replaced with King Farouk I from the Alawiyya Dynasty (العلوية). Egypt lost access to the Suez Canal
Despite this, Nationalist and anti-Italian sentiment continued to grow after the War. Anti-monarchy sentiments further increased after the Italians seized all Egyptian assets and corporations present within the country, making it seem like the Italians were treating the Egyptians like a Third-World Country or a colony of their empire. Anti-Italian Sentiment began to rise after King Farouk I was seen as an incompetent fool who couldn't care less about the politics and demographics of the country and instead spent most of his time partying, leaving the Prime Minister to do all the work. When he was crowned, Farouk had very liberal ambitions before the British stripped him of all his authority. In the Egypt teaser, he's since become a puppet to the Italian overlords who truly run the country.
