Egypt is one of the cradles of civilization in the Middle East. Traces of early man were found in Egypt dating back as early as 700,000 years ago. Egypt and ancient Canaan to the north probably served as the bridges by which successive waves of humans: homo Erectus, homo habilis, homo neanderthal enosis and homo sapiens, evidently migrated out of Africa and into Mesopotamia and Europe.
A predominantly Sunni Muslim country, Egypt has Islam as its state religion. A genuine estimate of the percentages of the various religions is a controversial topic in Egypt, and no two sets of figures appear to match, but it is generally accepted that 80-90% of the population are Muslims. Five times a day the "Adhan", the Islamic call to prayer, can be heard being broadcast from the loudspeakers on Cairo's many minarets. There are so many Mosques in the Egyptian capital that it was once dubbed "the city of 1,000 minarets".
Great Britain took control of Egypt's government in 1882, but allegiance to the Ottoman Empire continued until 1914. By 1922, Egypt was partially independent of the UK and acquired full sovereignty, with the overthrow of the British-backed monarchy, in 1952.
Egypt adopted its national flag on October 4, 1984. The earlier flag of Egypt was green with a white crescent and three stars. The current design was adopted after the 1952 revolution that saw the end of monarchy in Egypt.
The Egyptian banner is a tricolor with three equivalent level groups of red, white, and dark. The national seal, the Eagle of Saladin, is set in the focal point of the white band. The bird is watched by a shield and holds a look on which the name of the state (Arab Republic of Egypt) is carved in Arabic script. The Eagle of Saladin speaks of the power, excellence, and sway. Salah al-Din Yusuf, known as Saladin, was the primary Ayyubid Sultan to lead Egypt.
Salah al-Din Yusuf, known as Saladin was the first Sultan to rule Egypt The red band represents the period before the 1952 Revolution, which was marked by bloodshed and unrest. The white stripe symbolizes the revolution, which ended the monarchy and paved the way for Egypt's transition to a republic. The white represents the largely bloodless nature of the Revolution. Black symbolizes Egypt's past when the Egyptians were subjugated by the British authorities. The black band also represents the indomitable spirit of the people.
