How did the Ottoman Empire and the British East Indian Trading Company take down Muhammad Ali?
When Muhammad Ali was rising Egypt's economy, how did they stop him?
I actually did a bit of research on this because I had never heard of an involvement with the British East India Trading Company and Egypt.
First.... there are a great many of those who consider Muhammad Ali of Egypt to be an Ottoman Turkish military leader who used Egypt as his base, creating a dynasty that spanned far beyond Egypt.
After his defeat of the Mamluks, Ali transformed Egypt into a regional power which he saw as the natural successor to the decaying Ottoman Empire.
While Muhammad Ali was expanding his authority into Africa, the Ottoman Empire was being challenged by ethnic rebellions in its European territories.
The rebellion in the Greek provinces of the Ottoman Empire began in 1821.
The Ottoman army proved ineffectual in its attempts to put down the revolt as ethnic violence spread as far as Istanbul. With his own army proving ineffective, Sultan Mahmud II offered Muhammad Ali the island of Crete in exchange for his support in putting down the revolt.
Muhammed Ali sent 16,000 soldiers, 100 transports, and 63 escort vessels under command of his son, Ibrahim Pasha.
Britain, France, and Russia intervened to protect the Greeks.
On October 20, 1827 at the Navarino, while under the command of Muharram Bey, the Ottoman representative, the entire Egyptian navy was sunk by the European Allied fleet, under the command of Admiral Edward Codrington (1770-1851).........
So, Codrington commanded of a combined British, French and Russian fleet and destroyed the Turkish and Egyptian fleet.
This is known as the Battle of Navarino of 20 October 1827
I can find no connection between Codrington and the British East India Trading Company.
Muhammad Ali of Egypt WAS an Ottoman Turk who fought WITH them, not against them.
It was Admiral Edward Codrington, a British admiral leading France and Russia, that destroyed Ali's Navy.
During this time period the British East India Trading Company was very busy in Eastern India and Burma.
After this incident above, Ali asked for his rightful reimbursement from the Ottomans.
This went back and forth for some years until Ali declared he wanted his and Egypt's independence with a heirretary rule.
Russia and France didn't want Ali to get out of control and allowed their support for that basically to shut him up and go on with their lives.
