Why is Egypt location important? <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

1-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Egypt is located at a meeting point between two continents \u0642\u0627\u0631\u062a\u064a\u0646 <\/strong>; Africa and Asia. On its land, two important seas meet. Hence, Egypt separates the east \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0631\u0642 <\/strong>and the west \u0627\u0644\u063a\u0631\u0628 <\/strong>through Sinai \u0633\u064a\u0646\u0627\u0621 <\/strong>and the north \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0645\u0627\u0644 <\/strong>and south \u0627\u0644\u062c\u0646\u0648\u0628 <\/strong>through the Suez Canal which connects the Suez Gulf\u00a0 \u00a0\u062e\u0644\u064a\u062c \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0648\u064a\u0633\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0at Suez to the Mediterranean Sea at Port said. The Suez canal is approximately 100 km long.<\/p>\n

2-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The River Nile \u0646\u0647\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0646\u064a\u0644 <\/strong>runs through the Sahara Desert \u0627\u0644\u0635\u062d\u0631\u0627\u0621 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0628\u0631\u0649 <\/strong>. It emerges from the southern lakes \u0627\u0644\u0628\u062d\u064a\u0631\u0627\u062a \u0627\u0644\u062c\u0646\u0648\u0628\u064a\u0629\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>in the mountains \u062c\u0628\u0627\u0644 <\/strong>of central Africa. When it arrives in Cairo \u0627\u0644\u0642\u0627\u0647\u0631\u0629\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>it is divided and meets the Mediterranean at two points; Damiatta \u062f\u0645\u064a\u0627\u0637 <\/strong>and Rosetta \u0631\u0634\u064a\u062f <\/strong>.<\/p>\n

3-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Egypt location enabled it to control the international trade routes.<\/p>\n

4-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The vast deserts around the Nile valley protected the identity and culture \u0627\u0644\u062b\u0642\u0627\u0641\u0629 <\/strong>of the Egyptians, the ancient Egyptian civilization flourished.<\/p>\n

5-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Egypt received some huge waves \u0645\u0648\u062c\u0627\u062a <\/strong>of immigrants from southwest Asia and southern Europe. \u00a0Alexandria \u0627\u0644\u0627\u0633\u0643\u0646\u062f\u0631\u064a\u0629 <\/strong>, built by Alexander the Great in 332 BC , became a centre of the Greek culture. Egypt embraced Christianity \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0633\u064a\u062d\u064a\u0629\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>at that time and most of its people were Christians or Copts, a term which was equal to Egyptians.<\/p>\n

6-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0With the rise of Islam, the majority of Egyptians converted to Islam. Huge waves of Arab immigrants \u0645\u0647\u0627\u062c\u0631\u064a\u0646 <\/strong>arrived in Egypt and Arabic language prevailed up to the present time.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The ancient Egyptians were among the first people to build a national civilian country that consisted of one people. Their civilization was among the first in the world and its light spread in all directions. Alexandria Library \u0645\u0643\u062a\u0628\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0627\u0633\u0643\u0646\u062f\u0631\u064a\u0629 <\/strong>was one of the world’s wonders. Egypt managed to stop the Mongol waves that swept the Arab world. It also protected the Arab world from the European Crusades. Al-Azhar Mosque and University is one of the oldest universities that represents moderate Islam \u0627\u0644\u0627\u0633\u0644\u0627\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0639\u062a\u062f\u0644 <\/strong>. Egypt lies in the heart of the Arab and Muslim world that stretches from the middle of Asia to the Atlantic Ocean \u0627\u0644\u0645\u062d\u064a\u0637 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0637\u0644\u0646\u0637\u0649 <\/strong>.<\/p>\n
