Summary/Abstract: Strong political, economic and social reformations in XIX. Century, came to an important point in XX. Century. Changed management perspectives were the clearest signs of that. That period is mostly remembered with political events; but impact and effect of economy in state and community life was undeniable and constant. Economy was the strongest factor which directed the politics of strong states of Europe and Ottoman State during „Tanzimat“(Reforms) and then „Meşrutiyet“(Constitutionalism) Periods. Economic crises often occured. Egypt was an Ottoman province; on the other hand as a result of activities of Kavalali dynasty that aimed to be independent, Egypt had the loan authorization and it went to economic failure in XIX. and XX. Centuries. These two periods had different failure causes but the English effect was constant. Expenses that made for Modernity and Independency in XIX. Century, brought the failure and the occupation. In XX. Century, There was again economic crisis as a result of England‘s colonisation politics. The crisis that occured in Egypt with its causes and its effects is a good example for the importance of economy in state management. In this study, the economic events and the crisis after the English occupation, were evaluated with their causes and results.
