So I'm wondering whether it's possible for Egypt to develop a form of nationalism that draws less from its Arab identity and more from its unique Egyptian identity, perhaps with some elements of Pharaonism. Considering Egypt is an Arab speaking country, is it inevitable that Egyptian nationalism will develop as a subset of pan-Arab nationalism? I don't want any POD that requires big demographic changes to make this happen, so what I was thinking was a situation in which Egypt 1. is not forced to give up the Levant after the 1830's, resulting in Egypt being an empire in its own right and 2. is not taken over by Europeans. This means that any Arab nationalism in the Levant and the Arabian peninsula could possibly develop in opposition to Egyptian rule, thus making Arab and Egyptians nationalisms separate.
