This episode covers the Suez Crisis of 1956 which came about after Egypt, under Gamal Abdel Nasser, nationalised the Suez Canal. Britain, France and Israel then colluded to invade Egypt and retake the canal. Militarily this went well, but politically the crisis cost the allied powers far too much and so they withdrew in what was frankly a humiliating climbdown. Also it's the point in which Britain was officially no longer a superpower. So pretty important.
Recommended books:
The Arabs: A History by Eugene Rogan. A fantastic book that covers Arabic history from the Mamluk Sultanate to the modern day. Extremely detailed and pretty ambitious, too although be aware the author makes no attempt to hide their political biases.
Postwar: A History of Europe since 1945 by Tony Judt. Obviously this book only really tackles Suez from the perspective of the Europeans but does a great job in doing so. THE book for Cold War Europe.
Britain and France: *fails to control the Suez Canal*
Evergreen: “observe”
They did get control of the Suez Canal, the world was just against them
They didn't fail to control it. The Egyptians took it. For about 5 minutes.
They had to invade Sinai AND invade the cities on the western side of the canal in order to gain full control of the Suez canal- which they didn't do.
@@OffGridInvestor
You mean take control till now
The “UN/Deux” helmets was a nice touch
Hilarious
I needed a moment, but then I laughed out loud.

No oil in egypt
@LUNAR BLOODDROP un-funny oil joke
@LUNAR BLOODDROP
thank god we are low on oil in Egypt oil been good to the gulf Arabs like saudi arabia or UAE are rich as hell but any other Arab nation outside the gulf with oil like libya or iraq it was a curse
Josh Gooderham Egypt was saved by a powerful ally. Greed.
@LUNAR BLOODDROP fuck you
It's impressive how Nasser can lose literally every war he led Egypt in yet somehow still come out with minimal loses.
Nasser militarily was a big failure
But at least he led Egypt to victory in the war of attrition and the Yemen civil war
@@egyptianmachimoi2112 still, Sadat was much better.
@@The-ZebraFinch-Channel
True
But Nasser was politically victorious after the suez crisis . He achieved some important points by nationalizing the suez canal and hence funding the high dam . Emerging egypt as a new middle eastern power leading other countries for national liberation.
@@egyptianmachimoi2112 egypt didnt win in the war of attrition and the war in yemen was his vietnam
Nasser has been reincarnated as a cargo vessel it seems

Jokes aside, i think he was overall a gr8 leader.
Nah the ship was a baathist
@@direconsequences5760 i dont think he was all that good but weve certainly had worse
@@Gary-Eng yeah
You should talk about the UAR union with Syria that Nasser created
And compare it to the Jordan-Iraq cooperation? Would be even more interesting
Pan-Arabism in general, really. There were many proposed mergers, but too many conflicting interests and egos.
It was possible for Yemen to join them too.

"Damnit France and Britain how could invade the Sinai like that?"
"We're sorry, we didn't think that you'd be so upset about us intervening in foreign affairs like that."
"What? No, I'm just mad you didn't talk to me about it first."
Actually they did talk about it, and US said no! But the British and French still went along with it thinking the US wouldn't react.
Interestingly, Eisenhower apparently said after his presidency had ended that he regretted his decision in regards to the Suez Crisis
Originally he was afraid that Arab countries would side with the USSR over it, which is not only bad diplomatically, but also in regards to oil
@@skykid and then they did anyway
@@wholelifeahead some did, Arabia did not which is why we let them get away with being shitty to their people
"can no long pursue his own foreign policy without the consent of USA"... It must have been humiliating for the britsh.... (Edit: thanks for all the likes! 🙂)
Now where have I seen thus before, or rather where will i see this in the future?
More like Ironic the Son have become the father
It's one of the reasons a lot of brits hate the USA (Source: I'm British)
Jake F not our problem, you failed in the revolution, needed support during ww2, invade Egypt and still lose. That’s why overconfidence sucks,
@@mannyisgay8717 we didn't need support, we prevented invasion all on our own.
In Canada, this is most known for the fact that our PM of the day, Lester B. Pearson, was the lead negotiator on the treaty, which earned him a Nobel Peace Prize.
Doogie2K He wasn’t prime minister yet, rather minister of foreign affairs under Louis Saint-Laurent
Fun fact: the airport in my hometown of Toronto is named after pearson
@@12345676571 Yes, I got that fact mixed up. Pearson wasn't PM until the 1960s. Thanks for the correction.
For promoting border gore? By his logic we should bring back the HRE
@Mark Temperley he didn't steal it. It was the Brits and the Americans that decided neglect the Egyptians. So he rightfully took what was inside his country
1956 is when it became final that Britain was no longer a superpower, leaving only the US and Soviets.
It's not really that. It's more that 1956 is when it no longer became acceptable to just invade people for no reason.
@@arandombard1197
Unless you're the US or USSR
@@steelbear2063 The US still needs approval from other countries to invade. It made sure to have the UK's backing when it invaded Iraq.
Random Ashe You are delusional if you think the US needs UK approval for anything. If Uk didn’t withdraw from Suez it would have been relegated to the third world country as it’s economy was hugely tied to US aid. We saved the UK in both World Wars with Finacial and Military aid which ChurChill knelt and begged Roosevelt
@@jasonjason6525 The US cannot do anything without the support of its NATO partners, of which the UK is one of its major ones. Also, who the hell is Chur Chill?

We need more information on wars in Africa, i feel they don't get enough recognition. Especially Angolan,Ogaden, and Rhodesian war. Edit: (And Congo war)
I'd really like a video on Rhodesia. That whole mess confuses me.

I did make a history video about egyptian ottoman war against saudi state in 1812-18. And the origins of saudi arabia.
@@merrittanimation7721 no, it would be descended on by white supremacists
Absolutely. Angola, Congo, SA, Rhodesia.
My Grandad was a paratrooper who fought in this conflict. He never talked about it much and sadly died recently from covid, so there’s a lot I’ll never know. Thank you for making this video to honour the legacy of all those involved and teach people about this forgotten invasion.
sorry about your grandad :(
F*** your grandad. An invader is not a hero
Either I am misunderstanding something or you completely missed the point of the video. If your grandad was one of the invaders he was one of the bad guys. He may have been lied to in order to get him to go off to war for the sake of colonialism, but nevertheless he was on the side of the baddies.

3:03 I laughed way too hard at the helmets
UA-cam has a funny sense of humor recommending this now
Would you consider going back to 10 minutes for some topics? The added depth was really interesting and never felt stretched.
Don I'd agree with you
3 minutes is barely anoigh to get my attention, maybe 5-6 is ok since it leaves some more room the depth that we essentially came to the 10-minute channel for, and even though 10 is too long, 3 is too short
Edit: too long for producing purposes
3 is too short for attention purposes
on some topics I do agree, depends on what he's trying to explain, I like em all, so non-biased
For most historians this was the event that, at least symbolically, marked the end of the British Empire and of Britain as a Global super power; after this crisis, the world was all centered around the Soviet Union and the USA for the decades that followed
He left out Britain’s post Suez hissy fit.
Same for France. After this crisis both France and Britain could be described as middle powers and no more as super powers.
@@freewal Well... France lost its super power status after the Germans goose stepped into Paris.
@@black10872 Who has nuclear weapons and siege in security council ?
@@Antarius1999 siege?? You mean seat? Yes France has a seat in the security council. Yes France has nukes, and so do the other security council members. Nukes don't make a country a superpower alone.

It's good to learn history from many sources. This stops lots of patriotic stories in our history.

@@appleslover normally most of them don't, sadly
@@ahmadalnakeeb4438 hahaha Patriotic how if Britain and France succeeded in their plan now we Egyptians would again become their slaves in our own land
It would definitely be interesting if UK and France left NATO as a form of protest for not being able to form their own foreign policy.
If I'm the British I probably would have Force Eisenhower's hand and kicking the UK out of NATO. Eisenhower probably would have not done it.
Attie Pollard
Then Eisenhower would have crashed the British Pound
France actually left NATO central command later on thouh
@@genghiskhan5701 I find that very hard to believe Eisenhower would leave NATO if the UK and France did not stop their attacks in Egypt. Would he have supported economic sanctions against France and Great Britain? yes but that man was no fool when it came to foreign policy.
King Henry VIII Tudor yes because he would crash his 2 strongest allies economies when war seemed inevitable hahaha it was an empty threat he made.
France leaved NATO in 1966, after becoming a nuclear power.
For the first time in the 20th century, Britian and France could no longer act with impunity. The embarrassment that must have caused among the upper crust, government and military officials and officers of these two countries, it can't be overstated.
Because USA take the lead for that
@@revertnicolas5977 USA takes the lead. But also they weren't in a position to oppose the Soviets without the USA.
Nah. That's not the worst.
If you want to talk about humiliating failure, the "Mexican Expedition" in the late 19th century is ten times worst.
The French backing some Austrian Hasburg prince (who knows why ? Marie-Antoinette ?), to take the throne of Mexico. Ended in a (total) disaster !
Also an honorable mention : the US running away 2 years ago from Kabul, chased down by goatkeepers.
@@goofygrandlouis6296 No, that's just sad. So many Mexicans were killed needlessly.
I'm not aware of the Kabul retreat
@@goofygrandlouis6296 Eh, 20 years of making them living live in caves. There was ample notice and a set timeframe we told them. This "running" narrative would have to be defeated by prolonging the 20 year stay. One of biden's best things was sticking to trump's withdrawal plan and ripping off the bandaid. Let everyone bitch and moan about it, but at least we are finally done.
now we have the second suez crisis

Well, a PKF is hardly a military force, but they are observers. Like a referee during a sport match. When the war becomes hot again, a PKF need to get the hell out of there. Many PKF missions have demonstrated that. The most brutal example was the slaughter of Sebrenica, Bosnia. Dutch UN troops were tasked of guarding Sebrenica, which was an UN declared safe heaven. The Dutch soldier had only 30 rounds of ammo, a few machineguns and no anti tank misseles. The Serbs attacked with tanks and slaughter 8000 muslim men.

@@YourLocalMairaaboo Agreed.
@@YourLocalMairaaboo Not empty. That's just eastern Europe. Especially the balkans. I've met many many individuals from those countries. Western morals are irrelevant to them. Their ethnic hatreds are so prominent if you get some groups of them all and put them in a video game you'll be amazed the kinds of things they start saying to each other. If they were the superpowers of the world then war would be a lot more common.
That plan between Britain, France, and Israel was like something you would see in the Flintstones, like a plan Fred comes up with but Wilma finds out about it and shuts it down
I had to pause the video and finish laughing, after I saw that one of the UN peacekeepers had "DEUX" on his helmet. Gold.
I've seen the occupation on old maps, and heard about the nationalization of the canal, I had no idea they were all the same thing, nor that it was an international political scandal... I'm so glad i found this one!

1956 Suez crisis: Egypt doing pro gamer move
2021 Suez crisis: Boat gets stuck
I've become addicted to these videos. Amazing, love the simply but superb cartoons and the voice over is clear plus dry humour is a bonus. This channel does what your history teacher could never do = Make history fun!
YOu need to go cold turkey. DOnt try to step down method, by going to the history channel.
This is for some reason my absolute favorite historical event
Probably cuz this was the war that like really ended the colosinzation of UK and frqnce
One of the most important and long-lasting, yet lesser-known consequences of the war was Israel’s acquisition of nuclear weapons, as Israel’s participation in the war was a crucial factor in France decision to assist Israel in building up its nuclear weapons programme.
That is simply not true. Israel has had very good diplomatic ties with france (and the UK) since it's inception. France was one of their main arm suppliers. Besides, the french were known in assisting nuclear programs arond the world, including even iraq's in the 80s. It was profitable for them.
@@jonathan13co What I wrote is absolutely true. Israel for example has excellent diplomatic relations with say the USA, but the USA would never share nuclear weapons secrets with Israel (in fact, president Kennedy was adamant that Israel cease all nuclear weapons development and were it not for his assassination, Israel and the USA would have run into a major confrontation over Israel’s nuclear programme). The intense level of cooeration between France and Israel with respect to the development of nuclear weapons in the 1950s and early 60s rises far higher than what most countries with good diplomatic relations would be willing to share with each other. Once small example of this is that Israeli scientists were the only foreign nationals who were allowed to roam freely at Marcoule. Anyway, Israel’s cooperation with France during the Suez Crisis was one of the things which facilitated the two countries’ cooperation in the nuclear weapons development field rising to the level it did.
@@MaxPower-11 actually im pretty sure that israeli scientists helped france build their nuclear weapons, but after some testing france just kicking them from the project cuz they didnt need their help anymore...
@@jonathan13co
You do aware to the fact that the UK heavily assisted the armies of the Arab countries during the first Arab-Israeli, war, right?
The Jordanian army was literally led mainly by British officers, the RAF conducted almost daily reconnaissance missions against Israel. Israel shot down RAF planes that were about to attack Israel directly.
The relations were very hostile and there was even a direct confrontation.
And for being honest, why the heck would Britain ever perfer the interests of some 600,000 people, most of whom poor refugees in a very poor and small country with no resources, on the expense of good relations with many strong and large countries containing hundreds of millions of people, massive land areas and plenty of resources (Obviously oil one of the most important)?
The answer? They never did.
Not to mention that the Jews literally fought the British for decades for them to leave, and hundreds of thousands of refugees were at the time held hostage by the British internment camps (mainly in Cyprus).
Don't forget that Israel was socialist and the only actual assistance it received at the time (aside from Jews world-wide), was a small arm delivery from Czechoslovakia (which of course was a Soviet puppet-state).
You can even open Google and simply search "Arab-Israeli war" ot "UK-Israel historical relations" to see how incredibly wrong what you wrote is.
@@MaxPower-11
The relations between Israel and the US were always bad to hostile until the late 60's.
The US literally embargoed Israel, and Israel was a Socialist state.
Being a socialist state during the Cold war of course, pretty much grantees bad to very hostile relations with the US.
Britain, Israel, and France: conspire to take over the Suez Canal
U.S. and Soviet Union: "We don't usually work together, but we're willing to make an exception for you."
Miss the 10-Minute Videos to be honest. They always felt really high quality and the detail along side the humour always made me enjoy them whereas the short videos always feel like they end before they can really begin so to speak. Would love if you posted some more of the 10-minute videos?

Thank you and keep doing this great videos!
I never knew peacekeepers turned up bearing a sign that says 'calm down', so simple, yet so effective.

@John Citizen Cry harder
Imagine all this happening while you're _crossing the canal_ and your ship(s) end(s) up stuck in there for eight years.
This comment didn't age well...
@@bartholomewdan On the contrary, I think it aged _wonderfully._
That said, I was referring to an actual series of ships that were stuck in the canal when Egypt shut it down.
Haha, love how Eisenhower leans in on anthony eden with squinty eyes, breathing down his neck.
Dwight was for real like, “Anthony, I will crash your economy with no survivors.”
Finally, a video where nobody dies at the start.
The Suez Crisis honestly was a shifting point in history. It was that crisis that in my opinion officially ended European Imperalism and opened the doors for a more global share of power
