Anwar El Sadat

Born on December 25, 1918. Anwar el-Sadat served in the military before helping to overthrow his country's monarchy in the early 1950. He served as vice president before becoming president in 1970. Though his country faced internal economic instability Sadat would later earn the 1978 Nobel Peace Prize for entering into peace agreements with Israel. He was assassinated after on October 6,1981 in Cairo, Egypt by Muslim extremists.

I was Born into a family of 13 children on December 25, 1918 in Al-Minufiyah governorate Egypt. I growed up in an Egypt under British control. In 1936 the British created a military school in Egypt and I was among the first of its students. When I graduated from the academy I received a government post where I met Gamal Abdel Nasser who would one day rule Egypt. The pair bonded and formed a revolutionary group designed to overthrow British rule and expel the British from Egypt.

Before the group could succeed the British arrested me but I escaped two years later In 1946 I was again arrested this time after being implicated in the assassination of pro-British minister Amin Othman. Imprisoned until 1948 when he was acquitted upon release I joined Nasser's Free Officers organization and was involved in the group's armed uprising against the Egyptian monarchy in 1952. Four years later I supported Nasser's rise to the presidency.

I held several high offices in Nasser's administration eventually becoming vice president of Egypt. Nasser died on September 28, 1970 and I became acting president winning the position for good in a nationwide vote on October 15, 1970. I immediately set about separating myself from Nasser in both domestic and foreign policies. Domestically I initiated the open-door policy known as infitah an economic program designed to attract foreign trade and investment. While the idea was progressive the move created high inflation and a large gap
