War averted.


"Are we still in Egg-wiped" asks Pearl. "Yes" says Pickle, "we are at the heart of Egg-wiped, the place that makes Egg-wiped Egg-wiped, by an invader from Albania called Mohammed Ali, named after the American boxer. He brought agriculture under state control, built textile plants, shipyards and munition factories to supply his armies which he modeled on the Western style. After a number of military victories in Greece, Sudan and Arabia he went after the Ottoman Empire but backed down after the British intervened. The picture shows how our ancestors took part in the negotiations with the British which put a stop to M. Ali's ambitions.
LITTLE FLY upon the Sphinx/ Do you feel you have a jinx?/ With King Tut a spell was cast/ Will it catch up with you at last?
