Fuad I |
Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia | 0.03 sec. |
Fuad I (1868–1936)King of Egypt from 1923. Son of the Khedive Ismail, he succeeded his elder brother Hussein Kamel as sultan of Egypt in 1917. Egypt was declared independent in 1922 and the promulgation of the 1923 constitution enabled him to assume the title of king. His pretension to be king of Sudan as well was not realized. Opposed to the constitution, he favoured the restoration of the autocracy of the ruling family and was almost constantly in conflict with the nationalists, represented by the Wafd.
