The United Arab Republic "UAR" was the name of the new born country union between Egypt and Syria.
Here are some photos from President Gamal Abd El-Nasser official website for the early days of the Union , a quick journey for photos My generation did not see till now from the 31st of January 1958 to 28th of February in the same year , the photos mostly for Presidents Nasser and Al-Quwatli , some of them in Egypt , some of them in Syria , they were showing overwhelming reaction of the Egyptian and Syrian people and they were also showing some faces that played very important in the future then.
