Hands up if you are EGYPTIAN‏ ‏إرفع إيدك فوق إنت مصري

The 2011 Egyptian revolution (Arabic:  ثورة 25 يناير thawret 25 yanāyir, Revolution of 25
January) took place following a popular uprising that began on Tuesday, 25January 2011 and is still continuing as of October2011.

The uprising was mainly a campaign of non-violent civil resistance, which featured a series of demonstrations, marches, acts of civil disobedience, and labour strikes. Millions of protesters
from a variety of socio- economic and religious backgrounds demanded the
overthrow of the regime of Egyptian President Hosni
Mubarak.

Despite being predominantly peaceful in nature, the revolution was not
without violent clashes
between security forces and
protesters, with at least 846
people killed and 6,000 injured.

The uprising took place in Cairo, Alexandria, and in other cities in Egypt,following the Tunisian Revolution that saw the overthrow of the long-
time Tunisian president. On 11 February, following weeks of determined popular protest and pressure, Mubarak resigned from office.
