Egyptian nationalists claimed primacy among all colonizers of Sudan.

Evidence

Sharawï repeated all the Wafd's ideas about the Sudan, saying, "We must hold on to our rights with respect to the issue of the Sudan, considering the Sudan an inseparable part of Egypt, and not a colony." … In one such letter, sent to the press on 24 March 1924 she berates Zaghlül,"who knows as every one else knows that Egypt cannot tolerate her soldiers being forced out of the Sudan." — <cite>Eve M. Troutt Powell, A Different Shade of Colonialism_…, 856</cite> (#corroborates`, via linked claim)

The Sudan was a testing ground for Egyptian virility, for the individuals who had shed their blood there (fighting the Sudanese), and for the entire national project of independence at a time when the dominant worldview insisted that independent, self-reliant nations were by definition also regional, if not global, conquerors. — Eve M. Troutt Powell, A Different Shade of Colonialism_…, 726 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
