The Mahdist rebel against the Egyptian authority was a success due to
Antwortdetails
The Mahdist rebellion against the Egyptian authority was successful due to widespread support. The Mahdist rebellion was a religious and political movement that began in the late 19th century in Sudan. The movement was led by Muhammad Ahmad, who claimed to be the Mahdi or savior of Islam. The Mahdi and his followers were opposed to the Egyptian authorities, who were seen as corrupt and oppressive. One of the main reasons for the success of the Mahdist rebellion was the widespread support it received from the Sudanese people. The Mahdi was able to mobilize large numbers of people by appealing to their religious beliefs and promising to overthrow the Egyptian authorities and establish a just and fair Islamic state. The Mahdi's message resonated with many Sudanese who were unhappy with the Egyptian authorities and saw the Mahdi as a legitimate leader who could bring about positive change. In addition to the support of the people, the Mahdi's forces were also successful in military engagements with the Egyptian authorities. The Mahdi and his followers were able to defeat Egyptian armies in several battles, which further strengthened their position and weakened the authority of the Egyptian government. While the leadership skills of Gordon, the British Governor-General of Sudan, have been questioned in the aftermath of the rebellion, it is important to note that the rebellion was largely a result of popular dissatisfaction with the Egyptian authorities and their policies in Sudan.

Egyptian nationalism in late 18th century and early 20th century majorly aimed at ________
Antwortdetails
Egyptian nationalism in the late 18th century and early 20th century mainly aimed at ensuring Egyptian independence. During this time period, Egypt was under the control of various foreign powers, including the Ottoman Empire, Britain, and France. Egyptian nationalists believed that their country should be governed by its own people and not by foreign powers. They sought to establish a sense of Egyptian identity and to create a government that was responsive to the needs and desires of the Egyptian people. One of the key figures in the Egyptian nationalist movement was Saad Zaghloul, who led the Wafd Party in the early 20th century. The Wafd Party called for an end to British occupation and for the establishment of a democratic government in Egypt. The party also demanded that Egypt be granted full independence and control over its own affairs. The Egyptian nationalist movement was also influenced by the rise of pan-Arabism, which sought to unite the Arab world and create a single, independent Arab state. Egyptian nationalists believed that Egypt should be at the forefront of this movement and should lead the way in creating a strong, independent Arab nation. In summary, Egyptian nationalism in the late 18th century and early 20th century aimed at ensuring Egyptian independence, as nationalists sought to establish a government that was responsive to the needs and desires of the Egyptian people and to end foreign control over their country.

The coup was a violent and bloody one, and it led to the death of the then Head of State, Major General Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi, who was from the Igbo ethnic group.
