Stamps from Egypt - U.A.R.

Egypt is a North African country on the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. The first Egyptian postage stamp was issued in 1866. At that time, Egypt was still an Ottoman (Turkish) province. In 1867, Egypt became a Turkish kedivate, an autonomous Turkish vassal state. At the start of World War I in 1914, Egypt became a sultanate under British protectorate, although it had been occupied by British troops since 1882. In 1922, Egypt became an independent kingdom and after a revolution in 1953, a republic. In 1958, Egypt and Syria united to form the United Arab Republic (UAR). Egypt and Syria remained separate postal areas with their own postage stamps. In 1961, Syria left the union after a coup d'état, but Egypt retained the name United Arab Republic until it officially changed to the Arab Republic of Egypt in 1971.

Egypte is een Noordafrikaans land aan de Middellandse Zee en de Rode Zee. In 1866 werd de eerste Egyptische postzegel uitgegeven. Op dat moment was Egypte nog een Ottomaanse (Turkse) provincie. In 1867 werd Egypte een Turks kedivaat, een autonome Turkse vazalstaat. Bij het begin van de 1ste Wereldoorlog in 1914 werd Egypte een sultanaat onder Brits protectoraat, hoewel het al door Britse troepen bezet was sinds 1882. In 1922 werd Egypte een onafhankelijk koninkrijk en na een revolutie in 1953 een republiek. In 1958 verenigden Egypte en Syrië zich tot de Verenigde Arabische Republiek (VAR). Egypte en Syrië bleven wel aparte postgebieden met eigen postzegels. In 1961 verliet Syrië na een staatsgreep de unie, maar Egypte bleef de naam Verenigde Arabische Republiek behouden tot deze in 1971 officieel veranderde in Arabische Republiek Egypte.
