King Farouk I , born on February 11, 1920 was the last ruling King of Egypt, succeeding his father, Fuad I, in 1936. His full title was "H.M. Farouk I, by the grace of God, King of Egypt and of Sudan, Sovereign of Nubia (region in Egypt), of Kordofan (Sudan province) and of Darfur (Sudan region)".
He was crowned as King at the age of 16 in 1936 and ruled until 1952. His alleged corruption in Egypt and defeat during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, led to a military coup on July 23, 1952, directed by Gamal Abdel Nasser (later became the 2nd President) , who forced Farouk to abdicate and exiled him to Italy and Monaco, where the former king lived the rest of his life. He died on March 18, 1965.

You know the Name, the time, and do not know the place?
It was Egypt. I bet you do not know where he lived after he was overthrown!
