Description

Egypt is in north-eastern Africa with its capital located in its largest city, Cairo. Egypt is perhaps best known as the home of the ancient Egyptian civilization, with its temples, hieroglyphs mummies, and its pyramids. Lesser known is Egypt's medieval heritage, courtesy of Coptic Christianity and Islam - ancient churches, monasteries, and mosques punctuate the Egyptian landscape.

Egyptians are Muslim, which means they are followers of the Islamic religion. About 10 percent of Egyptians are Copts, one of the oldest branches of the Christian religion.

Egypt is home to a wide variety of animals and plants, including jackals, gazelles, crocodiles, and cobras. The best places to see Egypt's wildlife are in its more than 20 protected regions, which include oases, deserts, mountains, coastal areas, river islands, and wetlands.

Egyptians have always been close to the natural world. The ancient Egyptians left paintings and carvings of large animals like elephants, hippos, leopards, and cheetahs. These animals were once common in Egypt, but they are now rare or extinct because of hunting and habitat loss.
