United Nations Suez Canal Transitional Authority (Semper Idem)

The United Nations Suez Canal Transitional Authority (UNSCTA) was a territory administered by the United Nations, established following the Alexandria Agreement in 2043 and a General Assembly resolution in October 2043. The scheme was proposed by a European arbitrator during peace discussions in Alexandria, and was made in response to the Egyptian Civil War and the negative effects it would have on international trade, due to the precarious position of the Suez Canal.
After the war ended in July 2044, the new Turkish-friendly Egyptian government declared the Authority void, however members of the European Intermarium, politically opposed to Turkey, used their new "organization vote" to keep the Suez Canal in U.N hands, becoming a high point of tension between the two sides. With the start of World War III, the Suez Canal stayed under U.N control. Eventually, in 2054, control would be transferred back to Egypt.
