The most challenging part was finding information that went recent timelines and finding accurate information. the most interesting part was finding out new things about egypt and finding out how even in recent times that they were being treated unfair and fighting back. This changed my outlook on the revolutions ,We must become the change we wish to see in the world so basically saying we have to make a change stay up and speak up if we aren't happy with something. we have to take charge and fight for what we want if we want it. I chose this modern revolution because not that I don't know very much about Egypt but also I didn't know that in present time they were struggling with such unfair treatment.

January 25th 2011 the first act of the resistance started by various youth groups it consisted of demonstrations,marches and nonviolent civil resistance, acts of civil disobedience and strikes. Millions of protesters.Egyptian protesters focused on legal and political issues, including police brutality. State-of-emergency laws, lack of free elections and freedom of speech, corruption and economic issues including high unemployment, food-price inflation and low wages. The protesters big focus was on the Mubarak regime and emergency law, freedom, justice, a responsive non-military government and a voice in managing Egypt's resources.

During the uprising the capital, Cairo, was described as "A war zone" and the port city of Suez saw frequent violent clashes. Protesters defied a government-imposed curfew, which was impossible to enforce by the police and military. Egypt's Central Security Forces police, loyal to Mubarak, was gradually replaced by military troops. In the chaos, there was some looting by gangs which was instigated by plainclothes police officers. In response, watch groups were organized by civilians to protect neighborhoods.

International reaction has varied, with most Western nations condoning peaceful protests but concerned about the stability of Egypt and the region. The Egyptian and Tunisian revolutions have influenced demonstrations in other Arab countries, including Yemen, Bahrain, Jordan, Syria and Libya.

Mubarak dissolved his government, appointing former head of the Egyptian General Intelligence Directorate Omar Suleiman vice-president in an attempt to quell dissent. Mubarak asked aviation minister and former chief of Egypt's air force Ahmed Shafik (who ran for presidency later) to form a new government with all major opposition groups supporting his role as negotiator for a transitional unity government. In response to mounting pressure, as another attempt to contain the crisis announced he did not intend to seek re-election in September.

On 11 February 2011 Vice President Omar Suleiman announced that Mubarak would resign as president, turning power over to the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces. The military junta, headed by effective head of state Mohamed Hussein Tantawi, announced on 13 February that the constitution would be suspended, both houses of parliament dissolved and the military would rule for six months (until elections could be held). The new Prime Minister Ahmed Shafik, would serve as a caretaker government until a new one was formed. Seen by the masses as another Mubarak figure, resigned on 3 March, a day before major protests to force him to step down were planned, and was replaced by former transport minister Essam Sharaf. On 24 May 2011, Mubarak was ordered to stand trial on charges of premeditated murder of peaceful protesters and, if convicted, could face the death penalty.On 2 June 2012 Mubarak was found guilty of complicity in the murder of protesters and sentenced to life imprisonment, but the sentence was overturned on appeal and a retrial ordered. A number of protesters, upset that others tried with Mubarak (including his two sons) were acquitted, took to the streets.[40] Mubarak was eventually cleared of all charges on 29 November 2014, although Egypt's prosecutor general announced he would appeal the verdict.

After the revolution Morsi's attempted also to change laws granting himself unparalleled powers like no other president in Egyptian history. It sparked general outrage from secularists and members of the military, and mass protests broke out against his rule in June 2013. On 3 July 2013, Morsi was deposed by a coup d'état led by the minister of defense, General Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, who became Egypt's de facto strongman and was eventually elected himself president in the least popular election in 2014.

3 things the same abou the american revolution and the egypt revolution would be , 1 they both were triggered but people unhappy with how they were being treated. 2 would be because they the were both tired of their government and lastly they both fought for equal rights

3 things different about the american revolution and Egypt's revolution would be 1. Egypt communicated and organized there revolution over social media. 2. Egypt's revolution was not as violent as the american revolution. The last difference is that the american revolution caused their leader to step down from his power.
