Country Overview

Flag

The flag of Egypt features three horizontal stripes—red on the top, white in the middle, and black on the bottom. The red symbolizes the period before the revolution, the white represents the 1952 revolution that ended the monarchy without bloodshed, and the black stands for the end of the oppression of the Egyptian people. At the center of the white stripe is the Egyptian national emblem, the Eagle of Saladin, a golden eagle that symbolizes power and strength.

Coat of Arms

The coat of arms of Egypt features the Eagle of Saladin, a golden eagle with its wings spread, clutching a scroll bearing the name of the country in Arabic. The eagle, a symbol of Arab nationalism and strength, faces towards the right and is an iconic emblem of Egypt, representing the nation’s sovereignty and historical significance. The shield on the eagle’s chest is adorned with the colors of the national flag.

Egypt is a transcontinental country located mainly in Northeast Africa, with a significant portion extending into Southwest Asia. It’s home to an array of environments, from the vast, mystical Sahara desert to the life-giving Nile River Valley, and it boasts beautiful beaches along the Red Sea and Mediterranean Sea.
