On 28 February 1922 the [[United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland|British]] government issued the [[Unilateral Declaration of Egyptian Independence]]. Through this declaration, the British government unilaterally ended its protectorate over Egypt and granted it nominal independence except four "reserved" areas: foreign relations, communications, the military and the [[Anglo-Egyptian Sudan]].<ref>{{cite book |last=King |first=Joan Wucher |title=Historical Dictionary of Egypt |series=Books of Lasting Value |year=1989 |orig-year=First published 1984 |publisher=[[AUC Press|American University in Cairo Press]] |isbn=978-977-424-213-7 |pages=259–260}}</ref> The [[Anglo-Egyptian treaty of 1936]] reduced British involvement, but still was not welcomed by Egyptian nationalists, who wanted full independence from Britain, which was not achieved until [[Egyptian revolution of 1952|23 July 1952]]. The last British troops left Egypt after the [[Suez Crisis]] of 1956. For this, the 23 July date, celebrated as Revolution Day, serves as Egypt's national day.}}
