(Note that this is a work in progress, so please do not put this on the page. I will post it onto the page itself. If you have any concerns with my turn, reply to my turn. If you have any alliance requests, NAP requests, or anything of the like, please reply to my turn. If you're angry about my turn, put your head back up your ass and stop bothering me.)
 * Backstory: As the Great Depression sets in, the Arab Republic is weakened severely. Prices are raised so much that the government loses money very quickly. Samsung and Microsoft, along with smaller companies, form a coalition against the Arab Egyptian government, and eventually buy out every politician, taking over Egypt as a whole. Soon, SpaceX and Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) Space Systems join the coalition, giving Egypt a space program. In 2019, the Federated States of Egypt was set up as essentially a puppet state of the coalition, but after this puppet government resisted technocratic reforms and attempted to break away from the coalition, the government is dissolved, and a new corporatocratic government is in place.
 * Government
 * Technocratic Coalition: As the Technocratic Coalition takes power, a wave of technology and accessibility hits Egypt. Voting is now very easy, with swathes of government-controlled apps. They have high-tech security. However, the voting app is rigged so that the government can override it and put in any outcome they want. Private surveys are banned unless done through the government. The government also revives the economy, heavily trading with Fascist and Corporatocratic nations. Communist nations are bad for business. They are ignored. The coalition builds a prototype EMP device, which also acts as a cyberweapon capable of infecting computers and stealing their information. However, this is in very early development. The governmnet also authorizes other top-secret projects, such as REDACTED and REDACTED, which will allow the CFES to REDACTED.
 * Projects:
 * Project Kahraba: The indevelopment EMP device is REDACTED.
 * Project Marad: REDACTED
 * Project Haya: In order to bring life to the deserts of Egypt, a series of canals are in development. The first canal, Qanāt al-Awwal, in already constructed, and agribusiness farms are already popping up across Egypt. This produces a lot of revenue for the government.
 * Project Asliha: To create a lasting economy and impact on the world, the Coalition decides that Egypt must sustain a large military and become militaristic.
 * Military: The Egyptian population has reached 100 million. Manpower is estimated to be 48 million, with those fit for service at 40 million. 1.7 million reach conscription age annually, and conscription is compulsory. The CFES has 1 million Active Frontline Personnel, with 350,000 in the Active Reserve Personell. The African Land Force has 5000 tanks, 15000 AFVs, 1000 SPGs, 3000 Towed-Artillery, and 1750 MLRSs. The African Naval Force has 0 Aircraft Carriers, 15 Frigates, 5 Destroyers, 10 Corvettes, 16 Submarines, 300 CDCs, and 50 MWAs. The African Air Force has 400 fighters, 500 FWAAs, 300 transport aircraft, 500 trainer aircraft, 300 Helicopters, and 75 Attack Helicopters.
 * Egyptian Missile Defence Shield: A Missile Defence Shield was commisioned in 2019, and it is currently in construction. There a three phases, the first of which has been completed.
 * Phase 1: Phase 1 saw the deployment of a land-based early warning radar, as well as ships in the Mediterranean equipped with proven SM-3 interceptors.
 * Phase 2: Phase 2 will see the creation of a land-based SM-3 interceptor site – in order to expand the defended area against short- and medium-range missile threats.
 * Phase 3: Phase 3, the most significant phase, will add a more advanced SM-3 interceptor (Block IIA) and a second land-based SM-3 site. This would counter short-, medium- and intermediate-range missile threats.
 * Active War
 * Operation Jordan (January to May) (75,000 troops + reinforcements): After the new government announces militaristic reforms and conscription is introduced, on January 4th, the Egyptian government sends an ultimatum to Jordan, stating that they must cede all of their territory to the CFES. Jordan, being heavily influenced by Turkey, Syria, and the like, (most likely) refuses, meaning that on January 13th, Egypt declares war on Jordan.
 * January: Jordan is invaded with 60,000 troops through the south of the nation, following the Desert Highway to Ma'an, although by the end of the month, Ma'an is simply surrounded and not taken over. The Wadi Rum National Park is also forcefully taken over.
 * February: As troops advance through the south, Ma'an is taken over, and troops reach the Al-Muddawara Highway. Troops follow the Al-Badiyah Highway to the Saudi-Jordan border. Troops continue to advnace past Ma'an, taking the Dana Biosphere Reserve and advnacing toward Kerak.
 * March: The south of the nation is taken over, Egyptian forces reach the Syrian border. Amman is surrounded.
 * April: Amman is taken over. The government surrenders to the CFES.
 * May: Jordan is annexed by the CFES. They are given autonomous priviledges.
 * Operation Israel (April to - ) (125,000 troops + reinforcements): As Palestine is invaded by the Egyptians, when Jerusalem is attacked, Israel immediately declares war on the CFES, wuthout sending any notice.
 * April: Palestine (West Bank) is invaded by the Egyptians with 30,000 troops. Half of the region is taken.
 * May: The Israeli administration immediately reacts by declaring war on the CFES, attacking their troops in Palestine and attacking Egyptian Jordan.

 * Operation Libya (August to - ) (75,000 troops): After accepting Algeria's proposal to partition Libya at the start of the year, on August 2nd, an ultimatum is sent to the Libyan government. CFES demands that they give up the Cyrenaica region to CFES and the rest to Algeria, and to respond within a week. A week passes; no response is given. Therefore, on August 10th, Libya is invaded.

 * Technology: With the Technocratic Coalition in power, the level of technology in Egypt balloons rapidly.
 * Smart Meters: Smart meters are now installed in every Egyptian home in Egyptian cities. These have an electronic display, showing customers precisely how much electricity and gas they are using, and their costs in real time. The data is relayed back to energy firms automatically, which means that estimated bills and visits from meter readers are now a thing of the past. Average bills are being reduced as a result, since the meters encourage changes in behaviour. The meters can also "talk" to domestic appliances such as refrigerators. If necessary, these can be made to switch on and off depending on the level of demand on the grid. Smart grids are also being introduced to manage flows of electricity more efficiently. These are capable of handling more volatile sources of energy (such as windfarms) and coping with micro-generation – consumers are increasingly using solar panels or heat pumps to generate their own electricity and sell it back to the grid.
 * Agricultural Robots: Significant numbers of robots are now appearing on farms. These have been in development for 20 years and are now cheap and sophisticated enough for mainstream use. Advantages of this technology include much greater accuracy in spraying pesticides (cutting its use by 80%), uninterrupted output, and, as the technology improves, greater efficiency and speed. Initially, these robots are present on a small number of farms, often working alongside traditional human workers. As the years go by, however, and the technology proliferates, more and more farms begin to adopt robotic workers. Now, by the 2020s, entire farms are becoming fully automated. The increased output helps to alleviate food shortages caused by rising global populations. Despite these gains, agricultural robots prove controversial. They exacerbate the ongoing unemployment crisis, with the potential of putting many thousands of workers out of a job. Mechanisation continues its unending progress, as yet another industry begins to be handed over to machines.
 * Health monitorization: After several years of testing and development, a miniature device is now available* that can monitor a range of substances in the blood, providing instant results via mobile phone. Inserted by needle and placed just beneath the skin, it can remain in the body for months before needing to be replaced or removed. This tiny laboratory measures 14mm (0.55") and comprises five sensors, a coil for wireless power as well as miniaturised electronics for radio communication. The entire system is powered by a mere one-tenth of a watt. Each sensor's surface is covered with an enzyme that is used to detect chemicals like ATP, glucose and lactate. Data is transmitted via Bluetooth to a mobile phone, which can then be sent to a doctor, if necessary. With direct and continuous monitoring in real time, it is particularly useful for chronic conditions such as diabetes and high cholesterol, as well as tracking the impact of drug treatments such as chemotherapy. It can even be used to warn of an impending heart attack. For instance, a molecule called troponin is released by heart muscle around three to four hours before a heart attack, once the heart muscle starts malfunctioning. This can be detected by the implant before a fatal event occurs, giving the user time to seek treatment. Although still in their infancy, these devices represent a new and emerging generation of personalised medicine that will revolutionise healthcare in the decades ahead.
 * First Private Supersonic Jet: While commercial airliners typically cruise at Mach 0.85 (567 mph), the Spike S-512 uses advanced engine and airframe technology to reach speeds of Mach 1.8 (1200 mph). Holding up to 18 passengers, it can fly from NYC to London in 3.5 hours instead of 7 hours; or from LA to Tokyo in 8 hours instead of 16 hours. This government-owned jet, costing $80 million, is aimed at the richest business executives and celebrities.
 * First Hyperloop Track open to public: Hyperloop is a new form of transportation, in which pressurised capsules are shot through reduced-pressure tubes at extremely high speeds that are much faster than conventional train lines. The capsules ride on air cushions driven by linear induction motors and air compressors, able to reach upwards of 750mph (1,200km/h). Originally put forward by entrepreneur Elon Musk, the concept was explicitly open-sourced, with others encouraged to take the ideas and to further develop them. To that end, several companies were formed, along with teams of students working to advance the technology. Designs for test tracks and capsules resulted in a full-scale prototype 5-mile (8 km) track. This was built by Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT) around Quay Valley, a new 75,000-resident community situated halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles. In addition to featuring the new Hyperloop system, this town would also be solar powered. Following two years of construction work and testing, the first route is opened to the public during 2018.
 * Diplomacy: The CFES attempts to boost relations with the C4, while demanding the surrender of their enemies and accepting alliance proposals and NAP proposals.
 * Algeria: The CFES accepts your alliance proposal, and also your Libyan Partition plan. Libya is being attacked currently. It would be easier if we make them surrender sooner rather than later.
