📅 9 Mart 1919 📍 Egipto

After British authorities exiled nationalist leader Saad Zaghloul and other Wafd delegates, protests and strikes spread across Egypt beginning on 9 March. Students, workers, railway employees, women, and rural communities joined actions against occupation and the denial of Egyptian representation at the peace conference. The uprising helped force Britain to reconsider its protectorate, though later independence remained limited.
