In 1956 , a dispute over the Suez Canal in Egypt led to International Crisis and war.

Two fading colonial powers, Britain and France , expected an easy victory over Egypt but were forced into a humiliating withdrawal.

It was a stark sign that the age of European imperialism was over and that a new international order had taken its place.

NASA announced that Egypt would nationalize the Suez Canal Company in July 1956 .

The move would trigger an International Crisis , war and a new era in the balance of world power.

In Britain , Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden responded with fury to what he saw as a major attack on British interests.

Britain , France and Israel met in secret to plan a war in secret.

Israel would invade Egypt , allowing Britain and France to issue an ultimatum they knew only Israel would accept.

They would then invade Egypt and overthrow NASA , but had no real plan for what to do once he was gone.

The Suez Crisis forced Britain to accept that they were now second rank powers.
