Ismail Pasha
Interpretive Research Paper-Egyptian Ruling Elite
The country I studied during this project was Egypt, and the character I
was assigned to was Ismail Pasha, who was part of the Ruling Elite. Ismail was
the son of Ibrahim Pasha, who took the throne after Said Pasha’s death. He ruled
Egypt from 1863 to 1879. He began his rule halfway through the American Civil
War, when Egypt experienced an immense growth in cotton trade, due to the
unavailability of American cotton. Ismail did not control his money well.

affairs, Ismail had no power. After protesting, he was
exiled, and Egypt was no longer its own country. Khedives still ruled it, but they

the Industrial revolution because it temporarily replaced the United States of
America in the ever important cotton industry, and because it was essentially
controlled by powerhouse Britain. Egypt didn’t gain nominal independence until
1922, eight years after the industrial revolution. Finally, in 1953, Egypt became a
republic.
