History of Egypt
01History of Egypt
ACIENT EGYPTA unified Kingdom was founded C. 3150 BC . Egyptian culture flourished during this long pe-riod and remained distinctively Egyptian in its religion, arts, language and customs. Egyptian culture has been called “the gift of the Nile.”Without the Nile River, Egypt might never have existed. Most of Egypt was dry, barren desert. Along the Nile, though, the land was different. Yearly floods brought fertile soil to the river valley. When the floods ended, farmers began planting. While the water level was low, they grew crops. Farmers knew the Nile would flood every year, but in other ways the floods were unpredictable. Sometimes the flood level was low. Then farmers could not raise enough food. If the water rose too high, fields and homes were destroyed. The ancient Egyptians had to find ways to control the river. They built canals to carry water to inland fields. They built up the riverbanks to keep the floods from causing damage. The Nile brought other gifts, too. One gift was transportation. Boats carried goods and people from one part of Egypt to another. Transportation made trade profitable. The Nile also provided natural resources. Egyptians used its mud to make pottery and bricks. They made a paperlike material called papyrus from a plant that grew along the banks. Daily life in ancient Egypt revolved around religion. The land was filled with temples . A strong belief in the afterlife led people to build Pyramids as tombs for their pharoahs. All families had to help with the pyramids. They could work as laborers or bring food for the workers. Hieroglyphics, ancient Egyptian picture writing, helped project leaders keep track of workers and supplies. Building pyramids was hard because there were no cutting tools or machines. The work was important, though.The people believed that pharaohs were related to the gods. Pharaohs were not only important in government, but they were also religious figures. Only wealthy, important Egyptians were buried in pyramids. All people prepared for the aferlife though. They preserved or mummified, their dead relatives. They filled tombs with objects for the dead to use in the afterlife.

02History of Egypt
PTOLEMAIC AND ROMAN EGYPT
The Plotemaic Kingdom was a powerful Hellenistic state, extending from southern Syria in the east, to Cyrene to the west and south to the frontier with Nubia. Alexandria be-came the capital city and a center of Greek culture and trade. To gain recognition by the native Egyptian populace, they named themselves as the successors to the Phar-oaohs. The later Ptolmies took on Egyptian traditions, had themselves portrayed on pub-lic monuments in Egyptian style and dressed and participated in Egyptian religious life.The last ruler from the Ptolemaic line was Cleopatra VII, who committed suiced following the burial of her lover Mark Antony who had died in her arms ( from a self-inflicted stab wound), after Octavian had captured Alexandria and her mercenary forces had fled. The Ptolemies faced rebellions of native Egyptians often caused by an unwanted regime and were involved in foreing and civil wars that led to decline of the kingdom and its anexation by Rome. Nev-ertheless Hellenistic culture continued to thrive in Egypt well after the Muslim conquest.Christianity was brought to Egypt by Saint Mark the Evangelist in the 1st cen-tury. Diocletian’s reign marked the transition from the Roman to the Byzan-tineera in Egypt, when a great number of Egyptian Christians were perse-cuted. The New Testament had by then been translated into Egyptian. After the Council of Chalcedom in AD 451, a distinct Egyptian Coptic Church was firmly established.

History of Egypt
03History of Egypt
ARAB AND OTTOMAN EGYPT
The Byzantines were able to regain control of the country after a brief Persian Invasion early in the 7th century , until 639 -42, when Egypt was invaded and conquered by the islamic Empire.The brief French invasion of Egypt led by Napoleon Bonaparte began in 1798. The expulsion of the French in 1801 by Ottoman, Mamluk, and British forces was followed by four years of anarchy in which Ottomans, Mamluks, and Albanians — who were nominally in the service of the Ottomans – wrestled for power. Out of this chaos, the commander of the Albanian regiment, Muhammad Ali (Kavalali Mehmed Ali Pasha) emerged as a dominant figure and in 1805 was acknowledged by the Sultan in Istanbul as his viceroy in Egypt; the title implied subordination to the Sultan but this was in fact a polite fiction: Ottoman power in Egypt was finished and Muhammad Ali, an ambitious and able leader, established a dynasty that was to rule Egypt until the revolution of 1952. In later years, the dynasty became a British puppet. The introduction in 1820 of long-staple cotton, the Egyptian variety of which became notable, transformed its agriculture into a cash-crop monoculture before the end of the century. The social effects of this were enormous: land ownership became con-centrated and many foreigners arrived, shifting production towards international markets.

EGYPTIAN TRADITIONS AND CULTURE
04EGYPTIAN TRADITIONS AND CULTURE
The Culture of Egypt has six thousand years recorded history. Ancient Egypt was among the earliest civilizations. For millennia, Egypt maintained a strinkingly complex and sta-ble culture that influenced later cultures of Europe, the Middle East and Africa. After the Pharaonic era, Egypt itself came under the influence of Hellenism, for a time Christianity, and later, Arab and Islamic culture. Today many aspects of Egypt’s ancient culture exist in interaction with newer elements inculding the influence of modern Western culture.
EGYPTIAN TRADITIONS AND CULTURE
05EGYPTIAN TRADITIONS AND CULTURE
Ancient Egyptian religion was a polytheistic system that saw the world as in conflict between forces of order and chaos. The Pharaoh, representative of order on Earth, was seen as divine and descended of the falcon god Horus. There was a strong cult of resurrection in the next life centered around the god Osiris. Coptic Christianity became popular in the Roman and Byzantine periods, and Egypt was indeed one of the strongest early Christian communities.Today, Christians constitute from approximately 5-10% of the popu-lation.Islam in Egypt came to the country with the successors of the Prophet Muhammad, and is today the dominant faith with over 90% of the population adherents, almost completely of the Sunni denomination.
Religion
Religion and Language
Egypt’s main language or mother tongue is Arabic. Arabic came to Egypt in the 7th century , and Egyptian Arabic has become today the modern speech of the country. Of the many varieties of Arabic, it is the most widely spoken second dialect, due to the influence of Egyptian cinema and media throughout the Arabic-speaking world.

AIESEC in Egypt is in the process of creation for new portals for Outgoing GCDP & GIP Applicants to see our local and national prod-ucts, interact with us and be part of the life changing experiences. Our online portals will be directly linking to a CRM System that will be used to manage and track the customer experiences offered through our local chapters, where exchange participants will be go-ing through several phases starting with the application and finally with a completed experience. The CRM System will enable us to introduce new concepts and “phases” for the process, enabling us to explore new dimensions for Customer Experience Management by enforcing specific behaviors within our local chapters towards a mindset of customer centrism and richer GCDP/GIP Experiences.
Process Optimization & Experience AIESEC in Egypt is also one of the pioneer entities to imple-ment large scale Outgoing Preparation Seminars on the lo-cal and national levels, introducing an intense experience comprised of AIESEC knowledge, EP Lead, culture preparation and toolkits for smarter travelling experiences.
