Egypt Guide

Egypt, which is officially known as the Arab Republic of Egypt, is a country located in the north east of the African continent and in the south west of Asia. The vast majority of the country is located in Africa, but the Sinai Peninsula, which is the east of the country, is usually considered part of Asia; it forms the only land bridge between the two continents. Most of Egypt’s terrain is desert, divided into two unequal parts by the Nile River. The valley and delta of the Nile are the main centres of habitation. The capital and largest city is Cairo.

Introduction to Egypt

We know Egypt as being a full political entity since 3200 B.C. going to the extensive recorded history to prove that fact. It was one of the first communities dealing with irrigated agriculture, but not only this, also urban life, literacy and many other aspects of modern life throughout the Nile Valley, being the annual flood of this river the thing that made possible the development of this splendid society. Egypt’s strategic location between Asia and Africa and on the route between the Mediterranean basin and India and China made it an important hub of international trade. Beginning in the 4th century B.C., some new religions and languages were brought by many conquerors to the land. However, Egypt’s rich agricultural resources, pivotal commercial position, and long-term political unity have sustained a high level of cultural continuity. Although present-day Egypt is an overwhelmingly Arabic-speaking and Islamic country, it retains important aspects of its past Christian, Greco-Roman, and ancient indigenous heritage.
