Egypt 1882- to protect suez canal
                  to protect investments including the suez shares
                  strategic importance (trade)
                  Securing route to india
     
Sudan - Limit the power of imperial rivals
            to secure egypt and therefore the canal, shares etc

maybe a few more that I have forgotten!
