Suez Showdown: The Suez Crisis of 1956

In the midst of a global struggle for power between superpowers, a sudden invasion of Egypt takes place, threatening the delicate balance of world peace.

As states' positions within the international system radically change, delegates must act with creativity, diplomacy, and urgency to prevent further escalation.
