## Bio

Farouk I became Egypt's tenth ruler from the Muhammad Ali dynasty in 1936 at sixteen, succeeding his father Fuad I. Early popularity gave way to a reputation defined by extravagant playboy excess while his government sank into corruption and incompetence. In July 1952, military officers overthrew him and forced his abdication in favor of his six-month-old son Ahmed Fuad, who reigned as Fuad II for less than a year before the monarchy itself was abolished in June 1953. Farouk spent his final years in Italian exile, dying in Rome in March 1965 at forty-five.
