AFRICA | Asia | Egypt MOTW

Two of 27 governorates of Egypt lie entirely on the Asian Sinai Peninsula and two are transcontinental: Ismailia Governorate is nearly equally divided by the Suez Canal, and Suez Governorate, which is coterminous with the "transcontinental city" of Suez, has a small portion east of the Canal.

Egypt is a country located in North Africa, along the Mediterranean Sea to the north and the Red Sea to the east. It is bordered by Libya to the west, Sudan to the south, and the Gaza Strip and Israel to the northeast.

The flag of Egypt features three equal horizontal stripes of red, white, and black. The red stripe represents the country's struggle for independence and the bloodshed that was necessary to achieve it. The white stripe symbolizes peace and purity, while the black stripe represents the dark times in Egypt's history. The golden eagle in the center of the flag symbolizes strength and power, while the golden wreath encircling it represents the unity of the Egyptian people. The flag was officially adopted on October 4, 1984 and reflects the proud history and cultural heritage of Egypt.
