| | Egypt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Between 1958 and 1961 Egypt and Syria formed a union known as the United Arab Republic. | | | It was the Muslim Arabs who introduced Islam and the Arabic language in the seventh century changing Egypt into a linguistically "Arab" nation. | | | Egypt also has a major influence on the other Arab states. |

| | The Peace Encyclopedia: Egypt |
| | Egypt was proselytized, it is said, by St. Mark and was one of the earliest Christian countries. | | | Consequently, Egypt has a vested interest in preventing Israeli integration in the region and maintaining an atmosphere of "controlled tension." Finally, Egypt, as with most of the countries in the region, fears that Israeli integration will result in Israeli economic domination in the region. | | | Rather than aid the Copts against their persecutors, President Sadat accused them of sedition and conspiring to discredit Egypt and Islam. |

| | Amazon.com: Books: Cairo : The City Victorious (Vintage Departures) |
| | Much of this book seems to be based on stray documents that have been cobbled together to form an extremely generalized and probably misleading portrait of Cairo throughout its multi-layered, several thousand year history (how does one cover the thousands of years of history of cairo in 350 pages?). | | | The century's second half saw the reverse: silken slippers shuffling down, bare peasant feet and army boots stomping up." After the coup of 1952 that brought Gamal Abdel Nasser to power, Cairo then suffered, as did the whole country, under Nasser's tyranny and the cost of his foreign adventures. | | | ("If the story were to loop and tangle and digress," he writes, "well, that too would be in the character of Cairo.") Immersed in Rodenbeck's prose, readers will find themselves feeling at home as they discover (or rediscover) this unique place, its pyramids, and its people. |

| | But it was the 7th-century AD Arab invaders who can be said to have founded the city we know today with their encampment at Fustat, just north of Old Cairo. | | | Under their great leader 'Amr Ibn al-As, the Arabs took over a land that had already been occupied by the Greeks, the Persians, and the Romans. | | | The past here is more a state of mind than a historical fact -- and that, ultimately, is the way in which the city is truly overwhelming. |
