  Gamal Abdel Nasser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nasser was born in Alexandria, the son of a postal official.
Nasser, a lieutenant colonel in the army, founded and served as leader of the Free Officers Movement, a group of young members of the military all under thirty-five and all from peasant or lower middle-class backgrounds, dedicated to overthrowing the British-backed King Farouk I of Egypt.
Nasser's policies became associated with the ideology of Pan-Arabism, which promoted strong, aggressive government action on the part of the Arab states in order to confront the "imperialist" West, and urged that the resources of the Arab states should be used for the benefit of the Arab people and not the West.

Under Nasser's rule, Egypt became a police state, where mail was opened, the press was censored and the political enemies were sent to concentration camps in the desert.
Nasser persecuted and disenfranchised the educated classes of his country and built a huge, inefficient bureaucracy to serve as his power base.
Nasser centralized the Egyptian state under his rule, aggrandizing the power of the president, nationalizing industry, pursuing land reform, and committing himself to building large public works projects, such as the Aswan Dam.
