Egypt, a country linking northeast Africa with the Middle East, dates to the time of the pharaohs. Millennia-old monuments sit along the fertile Nile River Valley, including Giza’s colossal Pyramids and Great Sphinx as well as Luxor’s hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings tombs.
The Economy of Egypt used to be a highly centralized economy, focused on import substitution under president Gamal Abdel Nasser. During the rule of president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, the economy follows Egypt’s 2030 Vision. The policy is aimed at diversifying Egypt’s economy.
The Egyptian legal system is built on the combination of Islamic (Shariah) law and Napoleonic Code, which was first introduced during Napoleon Bonaparte’s occupation of Egypt in 1798 and the subsequent education and training of Egyptian jurists in France.
