On July 23rd, 1952, Egypt underwent a revolution that led to the end of monarchy and the establishment of a republic.  This transformative day was led by the Free Officers Movement marking the beginning of modern Egyptian sovereignty, free from colonial and royal rule.

As the cradle of one of the world’s oldest civilizations, Egypt bridges the ancient and the modern.  From the Nile to the pyramids and to the bustling energy of Cairo, Egypt’s legacy is one of reinvention, pride, and resilience.

Revolution Day is observed with public celebrations, reflections on national progress, and the honoring of those who shaped a new era. July 23rd reminds Egyptians of their enduring role as leaders, thinkers, and stewards of history and future alike.
