Sultan Hussein Kamel, 1914–1917
12/19/1914 AD appointed
Hussein Kamel is declared Sultan of Egypt after the occupying British forces had deposed his nephew, Khedive Abbas Hilmi II, on 5 November 1914.
Though presented as the re-establishment of the pre-Ottoman Egyptian sultanate, the newly created Sultanate of Egypt was to be a British protectorate, with effective political and military power vested in British officials.
This brought to an end the de jure Ottoman sovereignty over Egypt, which had been largely nominal since Muhammad Ali's seizure of power in 1805.
