The Egyptian Nation Alliance[4][5][6][7] (Arabic: تحالف الأمة المصرية; Tahalof El-Umma El-Masriya; also translated as Egyptian National Alliance,[3] Egyptian Patriotism Alliance,[8] Alliance for the Egyptian Nation,[9][10][11] Coalition of the Egyptian Nation,[1] or Egyptian National Coalition[12]) was a coalition of 12 parties.[7][12]
Known members of the coalition included the Ghad El-Thawra Party, the Democratic Front Party, the New Wafd Party, and 9 other parties.[7] Purported members included the Conference Party, the Egyptian Popular Current, the Socialist Popular Alliance Party, the Egyptian Social Democratic Party,[12] the Revolutionary Democratic Coalition and the Free Egyptians Party.[8]
However, it is not entirely clear which parties joined the coalition. An article in Al Akhbar states that some parties that are mentioned as members have not yet made a final decision on whether to join the coalition.[3]
