The aim of this work is to identify how Egypt became an hydro-power and how it has been challenged by other riparian countries nowadays. The framework of hydro-hegemony will be used as a guideline. We will study the different strategies and tactics developed by Egypt, discourse analysis is one method in this work. In spite of changing internal situation of riparian countries, Egypt's hegemony is increasingly strained. We will discuss the counter-hegemonic behavior of Ethiopia by looking at the strategies it employed. We will especially talk about the great project of Ethiopia that definitely stops the ambitions of Egypt. The study finally examines the overall changing geopolitical environment of the Nile basin with the arrival of new actors, such as China.
