Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I kawea mai hoki e te tau 1840 he raru tōrangapū i waenga i a France, Russia me Ingarangi na te tautoko a France ki te rangatira o Ihipa, a Muhammad Ali, he hoa tawhito. (I te tau 1829 i whakawhiwhia e ia te obelisk Luxor, e tu ana inaianei i te Place de la Concorde.) I whakapono a Lord Palmerston kaore nga French e whawhai, a ka tukuna he kaipuke ki te patu i Beirut me te whakawehi i Ihipa. I wehewehea te kaunihera o Wīwī, e wehi ana kāore a Wīwī i rite mō te pakanga; kua uru kē te ope taua Wīwī ki te pakanga hōia roa, utu nui
te wikitōria o Arikiria. I whakamārama te Kingi ki a Thiers e hiahia ana ia ki te rangimarie. I tono a Thiers ki te whakarere, engari i whakakahoretia e te Kingi tana whakarere, me te kii e hiahia ana ia kia whakapono nga Ingarihi ka whawhai a France. I a Thiers e tuhi ana i tētahi tuhipoka ki Ingarangi e whakatupato ana ka whakararuraru te whakataurite kaha o te ao i tētahi tono a Ingarangi ki Ihipa, ā, ka whakahau ia kia hanga he mowhiti hōu o ngā pārae huri noa i Paris. Kaore a Palmerston i whakaeke i Ihipa, a ka mutu te raru. Ko nga whakapainga i tiimata e Thiers i te wa o te raru ka mutu, ka mohiotia ko te pakitara Thiers, i muri mai ka noho (a kei tenei ra) nga rohe o te taone nui o Paris.
