Suggestion for one of the missing citations
I would suggest using the following citation for the aftermath section of this article: Yaqub, Salim. Containing Arab Nationalism: The Eisenhower Doctrine and the Middle East. Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2004.
There is no link for People's Republic of China.
[I can not do this, although i have hundreds of edits to various Wikipedia pages.]
The British didn't stop Russia from entering the Suez Canal
"The British denied the Russian Baltic Fleet use of the canal after the Dogger Bank incident and forced it to steam around the Cape of Good Hope in Africa, giving the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces time to consolidate their position in East Asia."
That doesn't appear to be true since Russia was permitted to divide their fleet and send some of their fleet through the canal. Instead, larger ships didn't pass through the canal over fear that there wasn't enough clearance to not strike the bottom. The article needs to be revised. 47.145.97.124 (talk) 10:18, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

1869 - "financed by the French and Egyptian governments?"
According to the article, the construction of the Suez Canal was "financed by the French and Egyptian government". The Canal was open in 1869, and Egypt gained its independent 1922. Hence, there was no "Egyptian government" that could fund the construction of the canal in the mid-18th-centry. I'm proposing to change that to "financed by France".
