05The attitude of the European powers to Isma'il's expansions

  • The European powers found these expansions a source of danger to themselves, because they too were expanding in east Africa; and the expansions recalled the danger of his grandfather Muhammad Ali.
  • It was no coincidence that the year which saw this great Egyptian expansion in east Africa was the year in which the financial crisis took shape.
  • The crisis followed a course that ended in foreign intervention, as an organised attempt to obstruct the growth of Egypt's strength.
