    Latest news on Egypt, providing comprehensive coverage of politics, economy, tourism, archaeology, culture, and developments in this pivotal North African and Middle Eastern nation.

    Egypt, with a population of over 110 million, is a country of immense historical significance and contemporary importance. Straddling Africa and Asia, it is home to iconic landmarks such as the Pyramids of Giza and the Suez Canal, which plays a crucial role in global trade.

    Recent developments in Egypt have focused on economic reforms and infrastructure projects. The government's ongoing efforts to diversify the economy and attract foreign investment have yielded mixed results, with challenges such as inflation and unemployment persisting. The New Administrative Capital, a megaproject east of Cairo, continues to take shape, aiming to alleviate congestion in the capital and showcase Egypt's modernisation efforts.

    Egypt's tourism sector, a vital component of its economy, has been rebounding strongly. The long-awaited Grand Egyptian Museum, set to be the world's largest archaeological museum, is nearing completion, promising to revolutionise the display of ancient Egyptian artefacts. Meanwhile, ongoing archaeological discoveries, such as the recent findings in Saqqara and Luxor, continue to captivate global audiences and shed new light on Egypt's rich history.

    The country's geopolitical role remains significant, with Egypt playing a key part in regional diplomacy, particularly in relation to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and issues concerning the Nile Basin. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam dispute with Ethiopia and Sudan continues to be a point of contention, highlighting the complex water politics of the region.
