Egypt

Egypt is bounded by the Mediterranean to the north, to by the Sudan the south, by Libya to the west, and by the Red Sea, Palestine, and Jordan to the east. The extension of the Blue River Nile divides the country unevenly in two, while the Suez Canal provides a third division with the Sinai Peninsula. Beyond, the highly cultivated Nile Valley and Delta, a lush green tadpole of land that holds more than 90 per cent of the population. The landscape is mainly a flat desert, devoid of vegetation apart from the few oases that have persisted in the once fertile depressions of the Western Desert. Narrow strips are inhabited on the Mediterranean coast and on the African Red Sea coast. The coast south of Suez has fine beaches and coral reefs just offshore, which attract many divers. The Aswan High Dam now controls the annual floods that once put much of the Nile Valley under water.
