[@Dinh AaronMk], as you're here, I have to ask: What exactly was so wrong with the Egyptian Sheet? Or would it have been accepted if not for my attitude?

[b]To make a long story short:[/b]

There isn't one: There was only one when you acted like these events that Muhammad Ali did historically were - as I said earlier - things he could do in a vacuum and wouldn't attract anyone's attention, when in reality, they all certainly did. 

If you just made it clear that you're willing to go in knowing that Muhammad's actions likely would have resulted in the Oriental Crisis occurring to make Egypt a vassal state of the Ottomans again (as it did historically with a 5 nation coalition against Egypt), then...sure. There's nothing wrong with your sheet whatsoever.

Britain would be very interested in what might disturb the Middle East too much since it puts the security of India at risk. Napoleon's invasion of Egypt was a warning signal to the British it was time to take the region serious. They weren't the only ones incapable of playing around out there. 

So Page threatning, "prepare to be bombarded" isn't an OOC threat to IC out of personal annoyance, but that the British would almost certainly see Egypt as a potential threat to India, or a means by which someone else might be able to fuck with India: the French again, perhaps.

Since a new power like Muhammad Ali would need sponsors on the mainland to do anything. And bludgeoning them with naval power would be a means to start negotiations.

We could suppose too that Russia being what it is, if it did become a Revolutionary state it could produce a Russian Napoleon and it would become a threat. Because the situation is tense and even if the Persians nibbled a bit of Russia off doesn't invalidate them in the wrong run. They are not PoW Russia. So you can make the same or similar Russian arithmatic too.
