Alexandria Unknown Naval Soldier Memorial
Egypt
It is located in the Mansheya area in Alexandria and was built by the Italian community in Alexandria as a kind of tribute to Khedive Ismail due to his great role in achieving a developmental and urban renaissance in Egypt during his reign between 1863 AD and 1879 AD and also as a kind of tribute to Egypt due to its hosting of the last king of Italy, Victor Emmanuel III, after He deposed him and chose Alexandria to reside there, and his design was similar to the memorial of the Unknown Soldier in Venice Square in the Italian capital, Rome.
