Political history
Saad Zaghloul led the nationalist forces. The elections of January 12, 1924, gave the Wafd Party an overwhelming majority, and two weeks later Zaghloul formed the first Wafdist government. As P.J. Vatikiotis says in The History of Modern Egypt (4th ed., pp. 279 ff.), "The masses considered Zaghloul their national leader, the za'im al-umma, the uncompromising national hero. His opponents were equally discredited as compromisers in the eyes of the masses. Yet he also had finally come to power partly because he had compromised with the palace group and implicitly accepted the conditions governing the safeguarding of British interests in Egypt." Following the assassination of Sir Lee Stack, Sirdar and Governor-General of the Sudan Anglo-Egyptian Sudan referred to the manner by which Sudan was administered between 1899 and 1956, when it was a condominium of Egypt and the United Kingdom, on November 19, 1924, and subsequent British demands which Zaghloul felt were unacceptable, he resigned, to play no further role in government.
