Farouk I

Arabic Faruq al-Awwal

(born Feb. 11, 1920, Cairo, Egypt—died March 18, 1965, Rome, Italy) King of Egypt (1936–52). Son of King Fu'ad I (1868–1936), he was educated in Egypt and England and ascended the throne in 1936. Farouk's administration was hampered by internal rivalries. His alienation of the military, especially after its loss to Israel (1948), led to his own downfall. In 1952 a coup led by Gamal Abdel Nasser forced him to abdicate. He was succeeded by his infant son, Fu'ad II, but in 1953 Egypt became a republic.

Farouk I, Faruk I
