Egypt
Egypt is home to one of the world’s oldest civilizations, with a recorded history spanning over 5,000 years and famed for its pharaonic monuments like the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. Its rich cultural legacy includes successive influences from the Ptolemaic, Roman, Islamic, and modern eras, centered along the life-giving Nile River. Today, it remains a major cultural and historical destination in North Africa and the Arab world.
Egyptian pounds
The Egyptian pound is the official currency of Egypt, introduced in 1834 to replace the Egyptian piastre. Its history is tied to the country’s economic evolution, transitioning from a bimetallic standard to being pegged to foreign currencies like the British pound and later the US dollar.
