Egypt

Egypt is a country in North Africa, and was home to one of the earliest civilizations. Originally, ancient Egypt fell under the rule of deities such as Horus, but eventually human pharaohs ruled over its people. The ancient Egyptian civilization built elaborate tombs, many of which remain unexplored.

By 30 BCE, Egypt became a providence of Rome and it remained that way until 639 CE. The nation that followed was Arab Egypt which was of interest to the Christian Crusaders -- particularly when it came to Cairo. By 1517 CE, however, Egypt was under the steadfast rule of the Ottoman Empire until its dissolution in 1914 CE. As of 1958 CE, the nation is formally known as the Arab Republic of Egypt.
